About the role

We’re looking for our next Software Engineer to join our Product Team in Spain . The right person will help us create the best possible product for teachers and empower them to engage their students with videos. If you’re a self-starter who’s eager to contribute to the education sector, you’ll feel right at home with us. 

As a Software Engineer, you’ll be responsible for working on all front-end, mobile and back-end sides of our software. You will participate in the design, creation, and maintenance of features, writing clean, functional, testable, and scalable code as well as fixing bugs or other coding issues. You will also continuously learn with the aim to be able to work on problems with increasing complexity, including the possibility of starting to lead projects with technical complexity, product complexity, or both.

Technically speaking, we use React and Redux for our frontend and Node and Express applying DDD and hexagonal architecture in the backend.

About our team

We are a product-focused team. Our methodologies foster close partnerships between Engineering, Product, Infrastructure, and other key areas (Design, Data, QA, Security, etc.). Everyone is encouraged to share their ideas and opinions, take initiative, and be resourceful when coming up with creative solutions that elevate the experience for our users.

Our Engineering team is organized around cross-functional and rotational full-stack projects, with teams of 3 to 5 Engineers on each project providing diverse perspectives and skills. At the end of the year, an Engineer will have typically contributed to 3 to 4 different projects in order to gain exposure to different aspects of our product and have a holistic development approach.

At our core is an environment where every voice is heard and valued, and each team member plays a role in shaping project strategy and designing technical solutions. We embrace proactiveness and curiosity to understand the bigger picture. Engineers are not just encouraged but expected to think critically, propose solutions, and take ownership. We’ve built a culture where ideas are shared openly, challenges are tackled head-on, and assumptions are questioned to drive continuous improvement.
