Having proved incredibly strong product-market fit, and having maintained enviable customer NPS ratings, it’s time to prepare for the next stages of our evolution. The naive implementations of our data pipelines have reached their expiration date, yet we continue to have ambitious roadmaps that will allow us to continue to improve the lives of students all over the world. We need someone who can lead us into the future by driving upgrades to our data pipelines while at the same time up-leveling our current engineering team’s ability to delight our users with new product capabilities.

  • Ability to plan, estimate, and manage the technical aspects of project execution and delivery
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to mentor junior developers
  • Impeccable communication skills for collaborating with product, design, and customer-facing teams

What we need from you:

  • Mid-level skills working with modern web technologies (HTML, CSS, WebSockets, etc.)
  • Experience with front-stack engineering using TypeScript, JavaScript, and modern front-end frameworks (AngularJS and React a plus)
  • A proven track-record of building world-class end-user-facing product experiences
  • A solid foundational working with designers on design systems as well as authoring and maintaining shared components
  • Experience delivering high-performance, low-latency front-end solutions across multiple regions at the edge using modern CDNs like Cloudflare, Fastly, etc.
  • Experience working with front-end analytics and experimentation frameworks
  • Strong background in API design, documentation, and versioning strategies
  • Well-formed opinions based on years of experience ensuring quality through predictable, scalable, and reliable end-to-end testing
  • Solid understanding of software testing, CI/CD practices, observability, etc. (AWS CodeDeploy, Sentry, Grafana, Prometheus a plus)

Our Tech Stack

While we plan on introducing new technologies and capabilities, and potentially migrating away from current ones, here is the general shape of our current stack:

  • Languages: Python, SQL, Shell
  • Frameworks: Django, AngularJS, React, Remix,
  • Databases: PostgreSQL
  • Version control: Git (GitHub)
