Job Level
About the role
- Designing and building end-to-end product features across backend services and our React frontend.
- Building well-structured, testable backend services and clean, reusable frontend components.
- Contributing to a multi-stack production environment, improving existing systems thoughtfully while helping evolve the overall architecture.
- Modelling domains, defining boundaries, and contributing to architectural decisions that keep the system coherent as it scales.
- Using AI tools to accelerate development — while reviewing, validating, and refining generated code before it reaches production.
- Owning work beyond feature delivery: CI/CD, observability, performance, and production behaviour.
- Participating in code reviews and technical discussions with a focus on clarity, trade-offs, and engineering judgement.
- Improving reliability, security, and operational robustness as the platform grows.
- Raising the engineering bar through thoughtful feedback, pragmatic decisions, and steady improvement rather than dramatic rewrites.
Requirements
- Strong full-stack engineering experience – Deep backend experience in Java, Node.js, or another modern stack, paired with solid React + TypeScript skills.
- AI-augmented engineering – You use AI tools as a natural part of your workflow to accelerate development and explore solutions faster.
- Engineering fundamentals over frameworks – You think in terms of system design, data modelling, trade-offs, and long-term maintainability.
- Multi-stack pragmatism – Our platform spans Java, Node, React, and some existing PHP systems.
- Architectural maturity – You understand boundaries, contracts, invariants, and how local decisions impact system coherence over time.
- Production ownership – CI/CD, containerisation, cloud environments (AWS), observability — you’re comfortable owning code beyond merge.
- Value-driven mindset – You care about solving the right problem sustainably, not just shipping features.
Benefits
- The chance to make a real impact: your work directly shapes the future of education.
- A fast-paced and high-growth environment where ideas move quickly and careers accelerate.
- A collaborative, supportive culture: we’re head quartered in the UK, but we’re a global team with colleagues in 15+ countries, bringing a rich mix of perspectives and energy.
