Job description

Location :

Remote (Australia, New Zealand)

Team Size : ˜ 10 engineers

About our client

INDY runs the business side of cinema—marketing, ticketing, concessions, show scheduling, accounting, and real-time BI—for theaters on six continents.

Tens of millions of tickets flow through the platform every year, yet the company remains an ultra-lean team where every engineer ships features that immediately matter.

The Challenge

Studios expect impeccable, timely accounting : film bookings, nightly sales tallies, royalties, and payouts.

Today that workflow is powered by a patchwork of spreadsheets and custom scripts.

You will build the

Studio Accounting Administration System

—an internal suite that :

Books each film, contract terms, and revenue splits

Electronically reports gross sales to studios (EDI / API)

Calculates royalties and initiates payouts with perfect audit trails

Evolves into a broader back-office platform for finance & ops

You'll own the full vertical slice : database schema ? GraphQL API ? beautiful Vue dashboards.

What You'll Do

Day-to-Day Responsibilities :

Design relational schemas and encode business rules in Rails services

Build GraphQL resolvers and secure REST hooks for studio integrations

Develop responsive Vue 3 UIs with component libraries & Tailwind

Write Sidekiq workers to sync nightly sales and recalculate splits

Add tests, metrics, and feature flags so we can ship fast with confidence

Partner with finance + ops to turn ambiguous workflows into product specs

In Your First 6–12 Months

  • Ship v1 of film-booking & sales-reporting modules
  • Replace manual royalty calculations with an automated pipeline
  • Decrease month-end close time by 50 % for our finance team
  • Must-Have Qualifications

    4+ years

    full-stack

    experience shipping production features end-to-end

    Deep proficiency in

    Ruby on Rails

    ActiveRecord

    plus modern JS (Vue, React, or similar)

    Hands-on

    GraphQL

    (schemas, resolvers, pagination, auth)

    Strong relational-DB chops—schema design, migrations, query tuning

    Proven record building internal or admin tooling where

    correctness and auditability

    matter

    Comfortable owning delivery—from whiteboard to AWS deployment—in a tiny team

    Nice-to-Haves

    Accounting, ERP, or royalty-reporting domain knowledge

    Experience with EDI / studio APIs, Stripe Connect, or payment rails

    Jest / Vitest, Storybook, or design-system work

    Terraform & CI / CD pipelines on AWS

    Why You'll Love INDY

    High ownership, zero bureaucracy

    – Shape a green-field system and watch it go live in weeks, not quarters.

    Visible impact

    – Your code determines how (and when) Hollywood gets paid.

    Varied problem space

    – Financial correctness + distributed systems + slick admin UIs.

    Founders in the codebase

    – Collaborate directly with decision-makers who can unblock you in minutes.

    Salary info : $90k-$105k / year
