  • Create a platform to change the way kids learn: Because company is solving a unique problem, we have the chance to reimagine education. Be it collaboration or puzzles or interactive videos or even 3D experiences, there is a huge scope for innovation. You can help us get there.
  • Tackle challenging and impactful problems: You'd jump between product, marketing, internal tools, process — participating in every phase from inception to implementation. Absolutely no boredom.
  • Join us at a magical time: We went through Y Combinator, have raised funding and are seeing strong traction with a very lean team. You get to be among the first employees in one of the strongest and most passionate teams in the EdTech space.

 

So, what will you do as a Full Stack Lead at company?

 

  • As one of the early employees, there will be a lot on your plate. All the time!
  • You'll take ownership and build new product features from start to finish. We love to hire ‘Product Engineers’ who care about “why” behind a feature and suggest changes to hit the objectives even better
  • You'll build improvements to performance, reliability, and product polish — for example, improving the efficiency and performance of our replicated state systems.
  • You will mentor new joiners, review the pull requests and help with expanding the team as we grow

 

This might be for you if...

  • You have strong knowledge of both front and back end technologies
  • You have been professionally coding for at least 4 years
  • You have worked in a startup and relish the chaos and pressure
  • You've built and maintained quality user interfaces that have reached a large audience, ideally while the product is experiencing rapid growth.
  • You can readily learn most technologies as you go. To you, technologies are about tools and tradeoffs, not an ideology.
  • You care about the business implications of anything you build. You're not just going after cool stuff — you understand the balance between craft, speed, and the bottom line.
  • Bonus: You're fluent with Typescript, Python, Go, NodeJS, Postgres, Docker.
  • Bonus: You're familiar with multiple frameworks such as React, Django
  • Bonus: You understand AWS infrastructure and can put out a fire if one happens
