#About Us:

CrowdFlower is changing the way work gets done. We build a quality control system that distributes work to millions of people around the world, and analyzes the results to guarantee the highest possible accuracy. We're 50 people based in the Mission District of San Francisco, have a ton of plants in the office, and a real business model.

#The Job:

We're looking for an engineer that loves the web and has built applications they're proud of using Ruby. At CrowdFlower we're building a number of services backed by Ruby / Rails and Clojure. As a Ruby Web Engineer, you'll be interfacing closely with the rest of our 15 person engineering team to expose new API endpoints for our Ember frontends and developer API.

Our applications are used by thousands of people every hour around the world. Everything our engineers do has real and tangible impacts. You won't be just another cog in the machine.

Better local require() paths for Node.js

Problem

When the directory structure of your Node.js application (not library!) has some depth, you end up with a lot of annoying relative paths in your require calls like:

const Article = require('../../../../app/models/article');

Those suck for maintenance and they're ugly.
