Learnerbly is a team of
entrepreneurs and innovators on a mission to redefine learning and
development in the workplace. We aim to give every person the
opportunity to be their best selves at work. We’re just getting started
but so far we’ve already help businesses like ustwo, carwow, GoCardless
and IDEO to find the best learning opportunities to accelerate the
growth of their people.
Learnerbly is beginning a new
phase of product development and is looking to hire a passionate
back-end / full-stack lead developer with experience in designing for
and operating AWS based systems. Developing in Javascript for an AWS
Lambda based architecture, using AWS DynamoDB and AWS hosted
ElasticSearch, the idea candidate should be familiar with these
technologies. This knowledge may come as professional experience or
personal research but you will be expected to speak knowledgably about
the state of the art with respect to server side application development
and infrastructure design. We like ‘geeks, and your ‘geek’ credentials
are more important to us than your professional or educational
experience. Show us your personal projects, tell us what you like and
what you don’t like, about interesting things you have read, projects
you have been involved with, people you have met and what you have
learned.
The project is new and the team is small so
you can also expect to be involved in making significant, material
decisions from day 1.
Areas of responsibility
1) Help us to develop our learning and development platform.
2) Provide primary design and support for the AWS infrastructure.
3) Help us to define our product in terms of features and development priorities.
4) Support the rest of the team with tooling and technical operations support.
5) Build our company culture with us.
Requirements
By far the most important requirement is that you have a strong passion
for building great software systems. Candidates with strong
professional experience will be preferred (especially experience working
in a start-up environment), but what really matters is a passion for
building things. We want people who enjoy what they do, and we know how
to spot it. If you think this describes you, get in touch.
Benefits
You’ll
share a fun and dynamic learning environment with proven entrepreneurs
and thought leaders. We’re passionate about learning and development and
will do everything we can to maximise your personal and career growth.
You’ll also receive:
- A competitive salary
- Equity will be offered
- A generous learning and well-being budget
- The opportunity to learn from senior advisors from Google, Eventbrite and The Times
- Access to a vast network of 7000+ organisations across the United Kingdom
