We verify experience with Ruby on Rails applications, looking specifically for production web applications built with Rails conventions, MVC architecture, and RESTful APIs.
They don't just solve algorithms. They are tested on Rails-specific challenges: ActiveRecord queries, routing configuration, background jobs, and Rails best practices.
We watch them build. Whether it's a Rails controller action or a database migration, we see how they write clean, convention-following Rails code in real-time.
English C1/C2 is mandatory. We ensure they can participate in code reviews and explain Rails architecture decisions to your team.
We confirm their track record with past US-based clients, specifically checking for their ability to work with Rails conventions and modern web development practices.

I started my career writing code, solving hard problems and building systems that improved people's lives. But over time, I noticed something broken – not in the tech, but in the hiring. Companies needed developers fast, but the process was slow, expensive, and full of bad fits.
The breakthrough came when I discovered LATAM talent. The quality was exceptional. The work ethic was strong. The time zones aligned perfectly. Yet most companies were missing out because they were stuck with flaky freelancers, bloated dev shops, or didn't know how to navigate nearshore hiring properly.
That awareness led to Next Idea Tech. We're not a dev shop or a staffing agency. We're your remote hiring partner – connecting U.S. companies with reliable LATAM engineering talent without the usual headaches.
We focus on fit, clarity, and performance. Our developers work in U.S. time zones with strong English skills. We stay involved post-hire to make sure things are working. We build trust through transparency – with both clients and talent.
We work with businesses seeking high-quality, budget-friendly talent who treat their people with respect and dignity, regardless of location. Because nearshore doesn't mean second-tier – LATAM talent can outperform when integrated properly.
Our Philosophy
"We vet for more than code. We look for thinkers, not just doers. Good hiring is about people, not just pipelines."
Ruby on Rails, often simply Rails, is a server-side web application framework written in Ruby. It is a model-view-controller (MVC) framework that provides default structures for databases, web services, and web pages. Rails is known for its emphasis on convention over configuration (CoC), don't repeat yourself (DRY), and the active record pattern. These philosophies enable rapid development and clean, pragmatic design. Rails is also renowned for its extensive library of open-source code and a vibrant community, making it an ideal choice for developing robust, scalable web applications. Rails supports multiple programming paradigms, including object-oriented and functional programming, making it both flexible and powerful.
We don't waste time on repeat interviews or a myriad of coding tests. The focus is on finding qualified Ruby on Rails developers quicker than with traditional recruiting.
