RoR Developer

1stopVAT grew from an idea to a live product just in 2020. A year later, we are one of the fastest-growing tax compliance startups. We are also a part of Lithuania startup community.

1stopVAT offers automated tax compliance solutions for clients all around the globe. We are working with Amazon sellers, well known digital services providers, and with some non-profit projects which we think could keep our earth more sustainable and environmentally friendly.

Right now, we have over 1000+ clients in our hands.

About The Role

You will work on the 1stopVAT self-service Console - the Ruby on Rails application our clients use to submit their sales data and our Operations teams use to process it. It is a live product with real users, a roadmap of new functionality, and plenty of room for an engineer who wants to shape how it develops.

You will be our Rails specialist, working directly with the Head of IT and other team members. Decisions are made quickly here, and the distance between an idea and production is short.

• Prepare tailored proposals and run the sales cycle through to signed agreement, looping in our tax team on complex cases.
• Represent 1stopVAT at global e-commerce and SaaS events and conferences, building your network and pipeline on the ground.
• Keep the pipeline and deal status accurately tracked in the CRM, reporting against monthly/quarterly targets.
