Full-Stack Developer (Ruby On Rails / React)

Remote - US Full Time Mid Level

This job has expired. The employer might not be hiring anymore.

Founded in 2013 by two forward-thinking, tech-savvy entrepreneurs, BidWrangler has fast become a respected name in the auction industry.

BidWrangler builds innovative technology for auction companies, including websites, white-label mobile apps, and a real-time bidding platform that powers both timed (eBay-style) and simulcast (live auctions with remote participants) auctions. Our customers span the globe from Australia to South Africa to Canada and the U.S., and they sell everything from small household items to multi-million dollar estates. Our customers love working with us because we help them reach more bidders, achieve higher sale prices, and more efficiently sell assets (read more in their own words).

We care about our company culture — one that’s focused on solving problems and building effective, beautiful tools — and we work hard to find great people who enjoy being part of the team. A typical work day rarely would be called typical and that’s the way we like it. Development can be fueled by coffee or beer, depending on the time of day, but whatever the hour, the work is punctuated with laughter and fun.
