In our journey we’re looking to build our own learning platform that delivers a high quality educational experience, measures learning outcomes reliably and allows for rapid iteration of our content and curriculum.

 

The Lead Developer will be responsible for:

  • Contribute to establishing the company’s technical vision and leading all aspects of the company’s technological development

  • Working with our main stakeholders and the leadership team to continually improve students’ learning experience
  • Build, mentor, and manage junior developers from the team

Requirements

# Is it You?

  • 7+ years of experience in software development teams. New tools are great, but fundamentals of data structures, design patterns, and programming practices are what deliver projects.
  • JavaScript (ES6/ES7). Good understanding of efficient and clean algorithms. You feel comfortable writing large-scale JavaScript applications, structuring your code in npm modules, using async/await, etc
  • Node. Good understanding with how node works, nvm, npm, expressJS, hapiJS...

  • React. We work with React applications. You should have some projects under your belt dealing with front-end frameworks.
  • APIs. We integrate with external API services (pipedrive, meetup, twitter, etc). Also we provide our own APIs for the internal tools with a GraphQL. You love it? Keep reading!!

Other things that we are looking for in this role, not strictly necessary but will make you stand out:

  • Know a Second Programming Language. Python? Java? Ruby? C++?
  • Cloud Management. You should understand how to do DevOps: deploy to the cloud (both Heroku and AWS EC2 environments). You should be familiar with reading logs, debugging common problems in infrastructure, managing DNS, Auto-Scale, CI/CD setup, etc
  • Dev Ops. Familiar with deployments, continuous integration, etc. More than welcome! :)
