Senior Software Engineer - Ruby

The Company

Board Intelligence is a rapidly growing Software as a Service (SaaS) business, pioneering a suite of tools and services that supercharge the effectiveness of boards and leadership teams. 

In summer 2024, we received substantial backing from K1 Investment – leading B2B Enterprise SaaS investors based in LA. Through both organic growth and acquisitions, our aim is to be the global leader in the board portal and board governance space. We’re at the beginning of a significant journey of acquisition and integration and expect to at least double our size in the next year. We have already acquired TeamEngine from Sweden in September 2024 and are looking for more superb talent to join us on this journey.  

We’ve been helping boards to make smarter, faster decisions for over 20 years and have over 70,000 users engaged on our platform. We work with FTSE 100s, large privately owned companies, public sector and government departments, and have a great track record of growth and delivery.

We’re 150 people today and growing fast. As we grow, we’re fiercely protective of our friendly, high performing culture. With three international locations (UK, Sweden, Mauritius) and over 15 nationalities represented, the team is diverse and friendly, and most days you’ll find a social event or learning opportunity to get involved with. 

Many of us, including our founders, have families and other priorities, so we know the value of a supportive company. And all of us like to have fun, so our regular company socials, away days and lunch & learns are always a highlight.
