Tanooki Labs

We are Tanooki Labs, a product and development studio based in New York City that works with entrepreneurs on early stage products. We provide product-minded developers with fun projects to work on, as well as the flexibility and freedom to continue working on their own goals. We choose our clients and projects carefully, and every product we build requires us to tackle new and exciting challenges. We also reject the idea that software development has to feel like a grind. We work 35 hours per week, support flexible schedules, are family friendly, and work with both local and remote developers. We’re looking for pragmatic developers who build with empathy for the users, a deep understanding of the product we’re building and our client’s businesses, and an eye towards writing well-architected code. You should have a strong background in full-stack Ruby on Rails, experience working in Javascript, especially React, experience developing applications from the ground up, experience with behavior-driven development and unit testing, a product-minded focus when creating applications, good communication skills in English, and a location in North America.
