Rails - Jul 2010 - [Jobs] Groupon is looking for RoR Developers in Chicago and Palo Alto

Groupon is seeking top-notch developers who love working on all
aspects of software used by millions of people around the world.  We
are looking to add to a talented team of folks who are passionate
about software and work to build efficient and scalable systems to
support our growing platform.

Some great things we have been able to deliver include a site built
entirely on Rails which scaled throughout a short period of immense
growth.  We have a proven commitment to having the fastest turnaround
possible for our customers, believe in short iterations and having
direct involvement with the business.  For example, aside from helping
conceive and design a loyalty program, we implemented it from the
bottom up and brought it to beta within weeks. Internally, we continue
to build great tools for our own staff to help them kick ass.
