Rails platform work around property search, MLS-style data ingestion, Algolia-backed search, geographic and map search, automated imports and ongoing product development.
Maintenance and modernisation work on a mature Rails publishing application, including framework upgrades, continued development and production support.
Modern AI tooling is integrated throughout the engineering workflow to understand existing codebases, explore options, accelerate implementation, expand test coverage, assist refactoring and iterate on tailored features.
Architecture remains human-led. Code is reviewed, implementations are tested, and production responsibility stays with an experienced engineer.
Used well, AI-assisted workflows make smaller custom tools and highly tailored business software economically viable in situations where bespoke development previously may have been hard to justify.
Whether it needs modernising, rescuing, extending or simply someone reliable to take ownership of it, let's talk.
