  • Participate in performance optimization initiatives and implement solutions to enhance platform stability and scalability.
  • Maintain clear communication channels with fellow developers, product managers, and other stakeholders to ensure alignment on technical requirements and progress.
  • Actively participate in technical discussions and provide valuable insights to contribute to informed decision-making.
  • When needed, effectively document technical solutions and design decisions for future reference and knowledge-sharing within the team.

The ideal candidate will have:

  • 10+ years of experience in full-stack software engineering.
  • 3+ years of enterprise-level Go experience.
  • 2+ years of enterprise-level React.js experience (or willingness to ramp up quickly)
  • Proven experience in delivering enterprise-level value.
  • Expertise in cloud-based architectures and distributed systems.
  • Strong understanding of database design, performance optimization, and system monitoring.
  • Excellent communication, collaboration, and leadership skills.

Bonus points for:

  • AWS certification.
  • Champion of automated testing in a CI/CD environment.
  • Passion for education and technology's role in transforming lives.
  • Familiarity with the education technology landscape.
  • Strong understanding of security best practices.

What we offer:

  • The chance to make a real impact on the lives of millions of learners.
  • A dynamic and collaborative remote work environment.
  • Competitive compensation, benefits, and time-off package.
  • Stock options in a rapidly growing edtech company.
  • The opportunity to build and lead a high-performing team.
  • The freedom and resources to shape the future of our technology platform.
