About this gig
Rails bugs you've been avoiding, I'll fix them. Each fix ships as a PR with a regression test so the bug doesn't come back.
What you get:
- 3 bugs fixed, each with its own PR
- Regression test per fix
- Short writeup: what caused the bug and what the fix does
- Standard turnaround: 5 business days from repo access
Requirements from you:
- Collaborator access to the Rails repo
- Bug reproduction steps (what you did, what you expected, what happened)
- Dev environment setup docs, or answers to a few setup questions
Timeline: 5 business days from receiving access (Standard).
About me: Rails since 2008, 19 years full-stack. I have shipped PRs on every Rails version from 2 forward.

FAQ
What counts as one bug?
One reproducible, documented bug with a clear expected versus actual gap. If it is really a feature request or a scope question, I will flag it and we can scope it separately.
What if a bug turns out to be a design flaw, not a quick fix?
I will report back within 24 hours of starting that bug with my finding and a recommended next step. If the fix is bigger than the gig, I will complete what fits or propose a Custom Offer.
Can you work in a repo without tests?
Yes, I add the test alongside my fix. If the repo has no test harness at all, we scope that separately first.
Which Rails versions do you work on?
Rails 2 through 8. For Rails 2.x codebases we scope first. I also sign a mutual NDA on request.
