Oxford Valuation Partners is a leading financial advisory firm, specializing in Private Company Valuation, Mergers & Acquisitions, and 409a Reports. OVP works with startups and venture capital firms to provide critical business services to emerging firms raising capital, allocating options, and heading towards IPO or sale.
OVP already provides its clients with top-notch professional services. Now, we’re bringing those services into the online arena, so our clients can collaborate better with our expert staff to manage and control key financial aspects of their corporations.
The world of funding, financing, and compliance is complex and challenging, and underpins much of the vibrancy in the tech sector today. This position is a good opportunity to gain exposure to this space, learn how it all works, and advance the state of the art in financial applications.
This role initially entails implementing document management and document-related messaging frontends and integrating these into 3rd party systems and our Ruby on Rails application. Over time, we expect you to become involved in architecting and implementing components all across the application.
Our application is Ruby on Rails using PostgresQL as the data store. In keeping with modern programming standards, we’re developing the front-end responsively and will use REST APIs to separate concerns. As the lead front-end developer for the project, you have a key role in making the application shine, and we expect you to be fluent with modern patterns and expectations.
As a developer, you should be a strong problem solver with a focus on simplicity, performance, and security. API integrations are definitely a part of the role. The focus of the role is on presentation & integration, but being able to go further down the stack will definitely be a plus.
The team is distributed so strong communication skills and openness to collaboration are important as well. We use Git and Slack as our primary collaboration tools.
This role is a contract role. We envision it starting between half- and full-time, and evolving into a fulltime role.
