About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Ship meaningful features quickly: Solve high-impact problems and deliver solutions using modern workflows—feature flags, CI/CD, automated testing, and AI-assisted coding.

Improve how we work: Contribute to engineering best practices, refine our developer tooling, and shape processes that help the team scale effectively.
Collaborate: Partner with Product, Design, Financial Aid, and Student Accounts to deliver end-to-end solutions on the problems that matter most.
Solve challenging problems: Build the next generation of systems powering modern higher education — your work will directly improve outcomes for students and the teams behind them.
