• Build and own customer-facing products using React and Node.js.
• Design APIs, data models, and backend systems that are reliable, maintainable, and scalable.
• Translate ambiguous product requirements into simple, thoughtful technical solutions.
• Work closely with Product, Design, Academics, and Operations to understand problems and ship solutions quickly.
• Make pragmatic architecture and engineering decisions without over-engineering.
• Review code and help establish strong engineering practices across the team.
• Debug production issues and improve the reliability and observability of our systems.
• Use AI coding tools effectively while maintaining a high bar for code quality and understanding what you ship.

What we're looking for

• 4+ years of software engineering experience, with strong fullstack experience.
• Strong proficiency in JavaScript/TypeScript, React, and Node.js.
• Solid understanding of relational databases, API design, authentication, and modern web architecture.
• Experience designing and building production systems, not just implementing well-defined tickets.

• Comfortable working independently and taking ownership from problem definition through production.
• Good written communication and the ability to explain technical decisions clearly.

Bonus points

• Experience with AWS, PostgreSQL, Next.js, automated testing, CI/CD, observability, or EdTech products is useful but not required.
