We’re looking for a  Software Engineer 2 (Ruby on Rails) to architect and build the next generation of our collaborative file platform, one of the most heavily used and business-critical systems within Procore. Our platform powers the storage, access and management of petabytes of construction documents for millions of global users, and is a key driver of customer success, product adoption, and revenue.

As a Software Engineer 2, you will provide hands-on engineering to evolve our monolithic Ruby on Rails application into a modern, modular, service-oriented platform. You’ll partner closely with engineering, product, architecture, infrastructure, and UX teams to define system boundaries, drive scalability and reliability, and deliver customer-centric solutions with measurable business impact.

This role is highly visible and impactful. You will influence technical direction across teams, mentor engineers, and accelerate Procore’s ability to deliver a world-class file services platform at extreme scale.

• Architect, design, and build scalable, high-quality software powering Procore’s file services platform.

• Evolve our existing codebase from a monolithic Ruby on Rails application into a modular system with clear, well-enforced domain boundaries and a coherent public interface

• Define domain boundaries, architectural patterns, and standards that improve reliability, maintainability, and development velocity.

• Drive system-level improvements in performance, scalability, resilience, observability, and cost efficiency

• Act as a technical mentor, multiplier, and role model, enabling engineers to deliver autonomously with high quality.

• Establish and uphold engineering best practices, including testing strategies, code reviews, instrumentation, documentation, and operational excellence.

• Lead root cause analysis, incident reviews, and continuous improvement efforts.

• Partner with infrastructure, platform, and DevOps teams to define standards for deployment, CI/CD, monitoring, and reliability automation.

What we're looking for: 

• Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science or equivalent experience

• 2+ years of experience in Object-Oriented Programming fundamentals, Test Driven Development, and Design principles 

• Professional experience with Ruby on Rails, Postgres and Service-Oriented Architecture

• Understanding the tradeoffs between short-term and long-term goals and balancing immediate needs with strategic initiatives

• Experience designing and operating systems on cloud infrastructure (preferably AWS), with an emphasis on scalability, reliability, and observability

• Experience working with a team on large initiatives with the ability to course-correct as needed

• Strong experience documenting and bringing team clarity to complex solutions

• Curiosity, drive, and customer-focus - you love solving real problems with elegant solutions.
