Match Score — ruby on rails developer
The candidate has over 5 years of recent, continuous Ruby on Rails experience across F. (2022-present), T. (2022), and V. (2019-2021), directly matching the core requirement for a Ruby on Rails developer role, with hands-on work on features, refactoring, MVPs, deployments, and training others. Strong complementary skills in Ruby, JavaScript, PostgreSQL/MySQL, Git, and tools like Heroku/Stripe are evidenced in recent roles. Achievements include launching live web apps, improving stability/scalability, and refactoring modules, though lacking specific metrics. Minor concerns are the very short 2022 T. stint (potential risk for stability) and part-time availability, but no employment gaps or stale skills. Overall, this is a strong, recent match with low ramp-up needed.
