Learn more about The Responsive Method, our company values, and the generous benefits we offer. Our technology Our web application is a single-instance, multitenant Ruby on Rails monolith supported by Postgres (database), Redis (background jobs), Kafka (event processing), and Memcached (Rails caching). We also run a Node.js webserver to support collaborative editing and real-time updates. Our application is hosted on Amazon Web Services and architected with ECS for reproducibility and scalability. We use a growing amount of React on the front end to build rich client-side experiences, including our fully collaborative text editor and slide presentation editor. We balance the strengths of both technologies: Rails for its conventions and simplicity and React for more powerful interactive functionality. Teammates embrace the new technologies that help us deliver a lovable product suite, but we also remain cognizant of the maintenance overhead a new library or platform brings. We solve the problems in front of us — rather than prematurely optimizing to address issues that might never materialize. We do most of our planning and collaboration in Aha Roadmaps and built Aha Develop so software engineers and their teams can take advantage of those same rich features. We use Slack and Zoom for video calls. (Email? Rarely.)
