Hi there! We’re New Bamboo, an expert, fun, and highly successful web agency.
Our team of fifteen talented coders is at full capacity and we have some exciting new leads to follow. We're looking for people in three categories:
- Hardcore ruby developers with commercial experience - we've got exciting projects waiting to start, and we'll drop you right in.
- Experienced web developers looking to move to ruby - we'll pair you up with one of our developers to teach you the language and get you going quickly.
- Newcomers with talent and enthusiasm for the web - you'll work with us on internal projects until you're up to speed.
"Ruby is designed to make programmers happy." - Matz
If you’re an experienced web developer in another language, we can help you get up to speed quickly.
Technologies
We primarily code with Ruby on the server and Javascript in the browser. Everyone's free to choose the right tools for each project.
Serverside, we've recently used:
- Rails
- Node
- Redis
- MongoDB
- EventMachine
And on the client side recently:
- Backbone
- Coffeescript
- Canvas
- Websockets
Clients and process
We work on everything from small startups like Escape The City, to high-traffic sites for Amnesty, to internal tools for Nature Publishing. We all vote on the projects we'd like to work on, and we rotate between projects every 2-3 months, so everyone builds skills in areas they're interested in.
We have a very strong culture of openness and transparency with our clients, and a reputation for being idealistic while remaining pragmatic about technology.
We're firm believers in the Agile Manifesto and use Scrum for most of our projects.
We're a full-time permanent team, and we do all our work from our office in London.
