    • You can communicate clearly in English, both verbally and in writing.
    Those were the cliff notes. In the next sections, we’re going to dive a little bit deeper into explaining who we are and the teams that make up Silverfin Engineering. 

    What does a Silverfin Engineering Lead do? 
    As an engineering team lead, you’re going to manage, inspire, and mentor a team of engineers to foster a culture of innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement. You will furthermore act as the cohesive force between your team, the Engineering department, and the company as a whole. Operating in a “player-coach” model, you balance hands-on contributions with team management.
    • Live the [Silverfin values](https://silverfin.com/careers/) and be a role model for the individual contributors
    • Collaborate with and support your fellow team leads (we’re big believers in a well-aligned Team Number 1) 
    • Make sure your team is aligned with the other engineering teams and the rest of the organisation, focusing on the highest business priorities 
    • Lead and mentor the team while closely coordinating with the product manager  
    • Embrace the “player-coach” model, with a significant portion of your time dedicated to direct technical contributions 
    • Help with discovery and delivery of the best way to solve a customer or business problem 
    • Help with maintenance and support of existing functionality

    What’s a Silverfin?
    At Silverfin, we apply the promise of software to the age-old industry of accounting. With our SaaS, we’re automating a large chunk of the busywork that accountants are currently handling manually and are building new tools so they can provide better services to their customers. We aim to optimise their workflow in such a way that accountants can spend more time on the much more impactful and rewarding work of advising their customers, the business owners.
    The good news is we’re succeeding in doing exactly that. Every week, more than 15.000 financial service professionals use Silverfin to help and advise more than 400.000 businesses. Our customers adore us! The even better news is there’s still plenty left to work on, and that’s where we hope you come in.
    Since November 2023, we are proudly part of Visma – the European leader in mission-critical cloud software, enjoying the power of the Visma brand and resources whilst retaining business autonomy and go-to-market freedom.

    What does working at Silverfin look like?
    Our product teams are cross-functional teams, with engineering, product design, and product management represented. They work very close to the users, trying to understand their problems and then discovering and implementing solutions that add the most value. We believe in very close collaboration between the three perspectives as early in the process as possible. The product teams are supported by other teams that provide core services, maintain complicated subsystems, or possess specialised expertise. 
    We’re proud of our in-house AI team, which is focused on the application of the newest developments in machine learning to address our users’ most important challenges. We’re pretty far on that journey already, since we have multiple AI-powered features that are solving actual client problems and are commercially successful. 
    Our CloudOps team ensures things run smoothly and will happily work with you when issues arise. We’re enthusiastic followers of the DevOps mindset, which means ops and developers work together to solve problems and empower each other to be self-sufficient, instead of throwing problems over the wall to the “other side”.
    We run an up-to-date Rails monolith on the backend, with PostgreSQL and Redis for persistence and caching, and everything is running on a Kubernetes cluster in Google Cloud. Our daily tools include GitLab, Quip, and Slack, with Google Meet as our remote conferencing tool of choice. 
    No code gets deployed without a review by a peer, and testing is a must. Our pipeline automates deployment when the suite is green, and deploys happen dozens of times a day. Each team is currently doing Kanban, but they’re free to follow whatever process suits them best. There are regular retros held to work towards continuous improvement.
    Software for accountants is not considered to be very exciting, but we have our fair share of technical challenges. To give you a sense of scale: in our biggest stack, our database exceeds 17TB*, and our largest table has crossed the 10 billion row mark a long while back. We run stacks on multiple continents, and we interface with more than 30 different external APIs and provide third parties with an API of our own.
    *: Our CloudOps team noted that this actually isn’t that hard to achieve if you’re just indexing everything, but it still sounds impressive, right?

    What makes the engineering team at Silverfin special?
    We’re a remote-first engineering team of 40 people distributed in 14 different countries over two continents. A priority for us is maintaining proper work-life balance. We avoid meetings as much as possible, accept deadlines only when absolutely necessary, and never expect anyone to work longer hours than they’ve signed up for. A day in our working lives is pretty boring, and we feel that’s exactly how it should be.
    Working with us means you can be flexible with your schedule. It’s OK to disappear for a few hours in the middle of the day to run some errands, get a haircut, pick up the kids – whatever reason, you don’t need to explain yourself. You also fully decide when you take time off: our team is sufficiently varied and well organised that there are always enough people around to handle the load, and in the rare cases it’s not, we will decrease the load instead of asking people to move their holiday.
    Being remote-first means we favour asynchronous communication. We don’t shy away from chatting in Slack, but the important decisions or discussions are done in Gitlab issues, over email, or in Quip, our central wiki, so there’s a written, persisted record. We’re mindful of maintaining long chunks of focused time, which means we avoid @-mentions or PMs on Slack, and other triggers and interrupts. We encourage using Slack’s DnD function, especially when you’re not working!
    We’d be really happy to welcome you in our #engineering channel, but it’s not just virtual: we make sure we regularly get to see each other in real life too. Twice a year we fly the whole engineering team to a different location in Europe, and at least once a year we join up with the rest of the company so we can spend some time together with the other departments.

    What does your future look like?
    Personal growth is key to staying motivated. As a manager in Silverfin you will participate in our initial Leadership Development Program and regular Leadership Days. Of course, your manager is there for mentoring and coaching you in your role as well. In addition to that, everybody gets a €1200 yearly budget to spend on conferences, courses, workshops, or other training to improve their skills and level up. This also includes accommodation and travel costs. If the conference is on a workday, you’ll get paid like any normal day.

    • You have recent experience as a Senior Software Engineer 
    • You know or are interested in learning Ruby on Rails
    • Your work hours have some overlap with EU business hours (we require your local timezone to be within CET +/- 3h)

  • Silverfin: Experienced Ruby Engineer

    Headquarters: Gent, Belgium

    URL: https://silverfin.com/

    We start with the cliff notes about the position. If this appeals to you, continue reading for a longer text about working at Silverfin and your role 👇
    At Silverfin, we’re an equal opportunity employer and value diversity at our company. Although we know we’re not perfect yet, we are working hard on it and always open for your feedback.
    According to our vision to build a diverse, equitable and inclusive organisation, our policy is to only make a final hiring decision if underrepresented groups are sufficiently represented in the list of candidates applying for the position. For this reason it’s possible interviews get slightly delayed until we’ve reached that goal.
    We’re committed to elevating talent by creating an environment where we can all thrive together. So if you think you have what it takes, but don’t necessarily check every single box, please consider applying. We’d love to hear how you might contribute to our mission and our team.

    What can we offer you?
    • Actual, proper work-life balance
    • A salary range of €99.000 – €134.000 a year
    • Flexible working hours and work 100% remotely
    • Personal growth training and opportunities
    • Join a distributed remote-first engineering team with 40 colleagues in 14 different countries on two continents 
    • A refreshing work environment with professional, friendly and welcoming colleagues
    • A €1200 yearly budget for conferences, courses, workshops or other expenses that will improve your skills
    • Two engineering retreats per year, somewhere in Europe 
    • Ten company-wide Wellbeing Days per year for all employees (once a month, except in July and August)
    What will you work on?
    • Building and maintaining integrations with accountancy software packages and APIs
    • Improving and expanding our on-premise Ruby CLI/service which runs on hundreds of our customer’s systems
    • Work on user facing functionalities
    • Help with discovery and delivery of a solution for user or business problems 

    What are we looking for?
    • You’re experienced in both Ruby and Rails, and also understand where the boundaries lie between them. You can code in Ruby without any of Rails’ training wheels if necessary.
    • You have some experience using Javascript framework(s), understand the value of them, but also know when plain Javascript is enough.
    • You enjoy integrating with APIs and aren’t easily dissuaded when encountering unreliable or poorly documented systems.
    • You code with reason and can justify the important decisions you made during development.
    • You can communicate clearly in English, both in writing and verbally.
    • You’re up for mentoring coworkers and can give in-depth, productive feedback during code reviews. While you appreciate the small stuff, you recognise bike-shedding and can avoid its pitfalls.
    • You know and can apply best practices when relevant. That means the usual like version control, testing, and refactoring; but also higher level concepts such as good object oriented design.
    • You’re aware of the trade-offs involved in proper engineering and can make balanced business decisions, keeping in mind all the stakeholders of the project.
    • You’ve got opinions on code design and you can discuss them, but you’re professional enough to not let those opinions get in the way of a consensus if necessary.
    If you’re any good at Ruby, this is probably not the first job ad you’ve seen, so we’ve done our best to stand out while also accurately presenting what we’re all about. If it sounds like you would enjoy working with us, don’t hesitate to apply or drop us a line with questions on engineering-jobs@silverfin.com, or read on for the more detailed explanation .. 

    What’s a Silverfin?
    At Silverfin we’re trying to apply the promise of software to the age-old industry of accounting. With our SaaS we’re automating a large chunk of the busy-work that accountants are currently handling manually, and are building new tools so they can provide better services to their customers. We aim to optimise their workflow in such a way that accountants can spend more time on the much more impactful and rewarding work of advising their customers, the business owners.
    The good news is we’re succeeding in doing exactly that. Every week more than 15.000 financial service professionals use Silverfin to help and advise more than 400.000 businesses. Our customers adore us! The even better news is there’s still plenty left to work on, and that’s where we hope you come in.
    Since November 2023 we are proudly part of Visma – the European leader in mission-critical cloud software, enjoying the power of the Visma brand and resources whilst retaining business autonomy and go-to-market freedom.

    What’s Team Syncs?
    One of the cornerstones of the Silverfin platform is the integration with bookkeeping software that accountants already work with, which allows us to seamlessly import their accounting data. We currently have integrations with over 40 different vendors, and we want to add more as we expand to different markets.
    Team Syncs is the team responsible for creating, maintaining and improving these integrations. Some APIs we need to use are poorly designed, badly documented or unreliable, and it can be challenging to build a robust integration. Yet solving those puzzles, and empowering our customers by importing gigabytes of data from their clunky bookkeeping software, makes it all worth it. Because once the data is in Silverfin, it’s connected, standardised and can be easily worked with, which is what it’s all about. If you’re a tinkerer, love working with APIs and thrive in the face of uncertainty, this might be for you. 
    What are the things you’ll be working on?
    • Improve the stability, performance and infrastructure cost of dozens of our current 3rd party integrations, through usage of different distributed systems patterns
    • Practise your modelling & refactoring skills. You’ll have the opportunity to think about solutions that will be applied in over 40 of our integrations
    • Help design & build the new generic API based on more than a decade of our experience with building custom solutions for bookkeeping software
    • Rare opportunity to work on a CLI/service application which is currently deployed on hundreds of our customers’ servers 

    What does working at Silverfin look like?
    There are seven engineering teams working together to deliver the best value for our customers. Several product teams, collaborating closely with product managers and product designers, are solving customer facing problems. The other, more platformy teams, own complex subsystems, like syncs or AI, and or support the product teams with knowledge,  frameworks and services. 
    Our ops team ensures things run smoothly, deploys happen correctly, and will work with you when issues should arise. We’re enthusiastic followers of the devops mindset, which means ops and developers work together to solve problems, and empower each-other to be self-sufficient, instead of throwing problems over the wall to the “other side”.
    We run an up-to-date Rails monolith on the backend, with PostgreSQL and Redis for persistence and caching, and everything is running on a Kubernetes cluster in Google Cloud. Our daily tools include GitLab, Quip and Slack, with Google Meet as our remote conferencing tool of choice. 
    No code gets deployed without a code-review by a peer and testing is a must. Our pipeline automates deployment when the suite is green, and deploys happen dozens of times a day. Each team is currently doing Kanban, but they’re free to follow whatever process suits them best. There are regular retros held to work towards continuous improvement.
    Software for accountants is not considered to be very exciting, but we have our fair share of technical challenges. To give you a sense of scale: our database exceeds 17TB*, and our largest table has crossed the 10 billion row mark a long while back. We interface with more than 40 different external APIs, and provide third parties an API of our own.
    *: Our ops team noted that this actually isn’t that hard to achieve if you’re just indexing everything, but it still sounds impressive, right?

    What makes the engineering team at Silverfin special?
    We’re a remote-first engineering team of 40 people distributed in 14 different countries over two continents. A priority for us is maintaining proper work-life balance. We avoid meetings as much as possible, accept deadlines only when absolutely necessary, and never expect anyone to work longer hours than they’ve signed up for. A day in our working lives is pretty boring, and we feel that’s exactly how it should be.
    Working with us means you can be flexible with your schedule. It’s OK to disappear for a few hours in the middle of the day to run some errands, get a haircut, pick up the kids – whatever reason, you don’t need to explain yourself. You also fully decide when you take time off: our team is sufficiently varied and well organised that there are always enough people around to handle the load, and in the rare cases it’s not, we will decrease the load instead of asking people to move their holiday.
    Being remote-first means we favour asynchronous communication. We don’t shy away from chatting in Slack, but the important decisions or discussions are done in Gitlab issues, over email, or in Quip, so there’s a written, persisted record. We’re mindful of maintaining long chunks of focussed time, which means we avoid @-mentions or PMs on Slack, and other triggers and interrupts. We encourage using Slack’s DnD function, especially when you’re not working!
    We’d be really happy to welcome you in our #engineering channel, but it’s not just virtual: we make sure we regularly get to see each other in real life too. Twice a year we fly the whole engineering team together to a different location in Europe, and at least once a year we join up with the rest of the company so we can spend some time together with the other departments.

    What does your future look like?
    Personal growth is key to staying motivated. At Silverfin you don’t need to move to management in order to advance. We see the individual contributor track and the management track as two different growth paths which every engineer can follow and switch between. You can be promoted, including pay raises, as a contributor just like as a manager.
    Everyone has a €1200 yearly budget to spend on conferences, courses, workshops or other training to improve their skills and level up. This also includes accommodation, travel costs. If the conference is on a workday you’ll get paid like any normal day.

    Requirements
    • You have at least 4 years of experience working with Ruby, or 2 years of experience with Ruby and 4 years in one or more other programming languages
    • You get Rails
    • You have experience with designing or integrating with APIs
