Senior Ruby on Rails Engineer

We are looking for a Senior Ruby on Rails Engineer to help us build reliable, scalable products and apply AI/LLM technologies where they create real value.

This is a hands-on engineering role for someone who can own complex features end to end, make strong technical decisions, and work across backend architecture, production systems, testing, and AI-assisted product development.

- Experience with React - CI/CD, background jobs, or AWS experience - Experience building AI-powered product features in production - Familiarity with embeddings, vector search, RAG, evals, or LLM observability - Experience with text-processing, localization, translation, or multilingual products Why Join OTGS?
