◆ RUBY ON RAILS RECRUITING

Hire Ruby on Rails developers

Senior Ruby on Rails developers, vetted for skill and working style, shortlisted in days. You interview a curated 3–5, and you pay only when you hire.

◆ WHY MIR · HIRE

Why teams hire Ruby on Rails developers through us

Ship fast, stay maintainable

Rails rewards velocity. We vet engineers who move fast without leaving a mess — clean models, tested code and the conventions that keep a Rails app sane at scale.

MVP to scaled SaaS

Our Rails candidates have taken products from first commit to scaled SaaS: background jobs, caching, payments and the reliability work that comes with real traffic.

Pay only when you hire

Success-fee model: no retainer, no upfront cost. We earn only when you land a Rails developer you keep.

◆ THE DIFFERENTIATOR

We assess fit, not just CVs

Every Ruby on Rails candidate is screened for skill and run through a structured work-style assessment — powered by JobCannon, our own live assessment platform (1,500+ skills, 2,500+ career profiles). You see how a person actually works and where they fit on your team, before you spend an interview slot on them. Fewer mis-hires, faster yes/no.

◆ FAQ

Questions founders ask

How fast can I get Rails candidates?

Usually a shortlist of 3–5 vetted Ruby on Rails engineers within a few business days. We respond within one business day of the brief with a plan.

Greenfield MVP or scaling an existing app?

Both. We scope the stage on the brief call — new build or scaling/refactoring an existing Rails codebase — and shortlist engineers who fit it.

What does the Rails vetting cover?

Model and API design, Hotwire/Turbo, background jobs, testing discipline and performance — reviewed against real work, plus a structured work-style assessment for team fit.

What does it cost?

Success fee — you pay only when you hire. No retainer, no charge for the shortlist or interviews. Exact fee confirmed on the first call.
