About the Team

Stitch Fix has an extensive internal platform for managing our business, from inventory management to warehouse logistics to our own Personal Styling platform, each serving thousands of internal users who run the business every day. Our public-facing infrastructure is growing as well, helping millions of our customers be their best selves. It’s all tied together with an array of user-facing applications and back-end services.

We’re ops savvy, but not ops-focused. While we are currently hosting our Rails apps on Heroku and leveraging their add-on ecosystem, we are only married to what works, and are constantly re-evaluating our technical infrastructure. We aren’t afraid of change if that helps us deliver faster, better, and more reliable solutions to our business partners and customers.

This is where you come in. Stitch Fix needs a Ruby and Rails developer with a keen interest in development tools, technical operations and “developer happiness”. We have a lot of applications, services, and infrastructure, and we need someone who can be dedicated to make sure it’s meeting the needs of the development team.

About the Role

You’d be walking into a welcoming and diverse environment that is built around partnership, integrity, feedback, responsibility, and innovation. We have over 20 Rails apps and services, hosted on Heroku, and deployed with a high degree of consistency. Our mature engineering team is truly partners to those that run Stitch Fix by providing efficiency & effectiveness with the tools we develop.

You’re excited about this opportunity because you will

• Make application development and deployment easier for the engineering team

• Help us solve thorny problems around performance and fault-tolerance

• Build tools and systems to manage security

• Make sure we’re up-to-date on the best practices of our service providers (Heroku, AWS, etc.)

• Investigate new tools & technologies our team can use to solve problems for the business
