  • Our team consists of several data engineers, backend developers and frontend developers and coordinators.
  • Every line of code we write — and feature we ship — has a direct impact on the field, helping us compete in the postseason year after year.
  • Working within the most innovative and collaborative front office in MLB, your ideas will be welcomed and heard.

  • are proficient in a language other than Ruby. We use several different languages depending on the task.
  • are familiar with NoSql databases like Redis or Elasticsearch.
  • have an understanding of baseball.
  • have an interest in sabermetrics and statistical modeling.

What will you do each day?
  • Build new features or maintain existing features in our proprietary software application.
  • Identify and correct bugs quickly.
  • Document code and support procedures thoroughly. 
  • Meet with Baseball Operations staff that have requested a new feature to gather requirements and help with feature planning.
  • Train non-technical users on new features or applications.
  • You might take half a day off from time to time to watch a baseball game.
  • Help our data engineering team ingest data from new data sources.

Why work for the Rays?
  • A top notch development environment with a company provided laptop, Github Enterprise, frictionless CI/CD, bug tracking, top project management and documentation software, and automated testing to minimize bugs to keep you focused on new features.
  • Opportunities to choose and work with new technology. We strongly believe in choosing the right tool for the job even if it isn’t part of our current stack.
  • Exceptional benefits including: 
    • health, vision and dental coverage at VERY competitive rates. 
    • an enhanced 401k where the company contributes even if you don’t! 
    • free tickets to baseball and soccer games (We also own the Tampa Bay Rowdies) for you, your friends and family. 
    • flexible PTO options and monthly paid volunteer opportunities. 
    • generous family planning assistance and parental leave.
    • annual continuing education assistance.
    • healthy and free lunch right in the office. 
    • in-office yoga and many other other wellness benefits. 
  • You’ll be working with some of the sharpest minds in all of baseball.
  • You are a good teammate and like working with other driven and caring teammates.
  • Your office is in a baseball stadium! Or your office can be remote, your choice!
  • We are an organization that prides itself on coaching others so please apply even if you don’t meet every one of the requirements above.
