Description du poste

Who we are

Who we are: We build technology that removes barriers blocking talent from opportunity, combining the latest advancements in AI with human judgment.

How we expand access: Access isn't real if it's unaffordable. Through our sister company, Passage Funding, we provide financing for international students.

What we believe: Access to opportunity should not be determined by geography, gender, or wealth. We reinvest a portion of our profits to support those cut off from education - including our Afghan program.

Access is the product: We build AI that turns paperwork into decisions, and decisions into real outcomes.

Our mission is bold but simple: by 2030, we aim to dismantle the barriers preventing brilliant minds from accessing the opportunities they deserve.

Who you are

You’re a mission-driven, ambitious individual who wants to win by doing good. You’re passionately curious about the world, empathetic toward others, and driven to create meaningful impact. You’re not afraid of a problem and see it as an opportunity. You’re a builder.

You likely have a strength in either frontend or backend development. If you're more experienced in frontend, we value your eye for design and your talent for creating engaging user experiences. If backend is your area of expertise, we look for your ability to architect complex services and manage databases effectively. In both cases, we count on you to contribute thoughtfully to product decisions.

What you will do

• Solve complex problems end-to-end.

• Design, develop, and maintain complex software applications.

• Lead the technical design and architecture of software systems.

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to develop new features and products.

• Write clean, maintainable code in accordance with best practices.

• Participate in code reviews and provide feedback to improve overall code quality.

• Exhibit a strong sense of ownership in all aspects of your work.
