Celebrating Ruby’s B-day with our incredible Rubyists from the Funding Circle team

On the occasion of the 24th birthday of Ruby, we had an insightful talk with a few real Ruby masters. Along with their great work at the Funding Circle team and various hobbies they are practising, Monica, Aleksandar Ivanov and Alexander Popov are regularly volunteering at the local community event Rails Girls. The event is a 2-day workshop about Ruby on Rails that is aiming to attract more women to the tech sector and is also often supported by Pwrteams.

Behind the scenes: How Funding Circle uses Clojure

Clojure is a dynamic, general-purpose programming language which has gained a lot of popularity in the recent years. Some of its advantages made the Funding Circle team at Pwrteams add it to their tech stack. Therefore, we invited Denislav Naydenov to tell us more about his impressions of the language and why they have decided to start using it. Denislav is a Tech Lead at Funding Circle who has huge experience with Ruby but was also involved in several Clojure projects until recently. Here is what he shared with us.

Clojure seems simpler, but it has its quirks

Meet our colleague Yana Mishkova from team Funding Circle. She has joined the team back in September with no experience with Clojure. A few months later she is part of an important project developed with the programming language, and she is really enjoying it. Recently we talked with her about her journey with Clojure and the Funding Circle team. Read what she shared.
