National home remodeler joins forces with landmark Rails event to amplify the technical experience and drive innovation across the business
Power Home Remodeling (“POWER”), the nation’s leading exterior home remodeler, is sponsoring Ruby Central’s RailsConf 2025 for the first time, merging it with its bi-annual Business Technology (“BT”) event, “Nitro Create”, providing a one-of-a-kind experience for 100 employees from across the globe. The event will take place from July 8th — 10th in Philadelphia, PA.
POWER’s proprietary technology — including its business operating system called “Nitro” — is developed entirely in-house by the company's BT team, utilizing the Ruby on Rails framework.
“Rails isn't just a technology choice for us—it’s a philosophy. Since 2008, we’ve scaled a billion-dollar remodeling business on a custom-built, Rails-based platform that now powers every part of our business and impacts every customer and employee,” said Jenny Gray, POWER’s VP of Application Development and Infrastructure. “Partnering with RailsConf allows us to create a more meaningful Nitro Create experience for our developers, while also inviting others to see how Rails can drive serious business impact and architectural innovation.”
Now in its 12th year, Nitro Create is one of POWER’s longest-running events and a cornerstone of the company's tech culture. This multi-day event is dedicated to fostering innovation among POWER technologists from around the world, focusing on developing new technological capabilities that advance both Nitro and POWER’s business objectives.
This Nitro Create will be the first of its kind, curating two distinct experiences for attendees. POWER Producteers, Designers, Scrum Masters, and SREs will partake in learning sessions, cross-functional challenges, and team-building activities at the company’s state-of-the-art headquarters in Chester. Meanwhile, developers will be fully immersed in RailsConf — the longest-running conference dedicated to the Rails framework, celebrating its final gathering in Philadelphia after 20 years.
