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 knowledgeably
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
