Full Job Description

ABOUT UNBOUNDED

UnboundEd recently joined two other professional learning organizations, Pivot Learning and CORE Learning. Together as one entity, we are now the nation's largest equity-focused professional learning organization. We provide evidence-based, comprehensive instructional and curriculum support to educators and school system leaders in over 40 states nationwide.

UnboundEd empowers educators to transform teaching and learning. We work with classroom teachers, school leaders and district executives to ensure engaging, affirming and meaningful grade-level instruction, so that we eliminate the predictability of student outcomes by race and socioeconomic status. We focus on the needs of students of color and those who have historically been at the margins because when we do that, all students benefit.

We seek a collaborative and innovative Full Stack Engineer to join our team. In this role, you’ll support the delivery of our new professional development courses for teachers. You'll also drive core technical decisions, influence product strategy, and directly make codebase contributions. You will be responsible for the development and maintenance of our homegrown Learning Management System (LMS) anchored by PHP 8.3 and the Laravel framework (leveraging MySQL, VueJS and AWS). You will work closely with cross-functional peers to expand our current feature set, enhance our data collection and reporting capabilities, and implement automation processes to streamline user experience and business operations. 

Requirements

  • Must be living in, and able to work in the US

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead development of new features and improvements to our existing LMS while maintaining both front-end and back-end components of the application
  • Drive key technical decisions for the organization by clearly defining and building the architectural runway required to enable future innovation.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to understand requirements and translate them into effective technical solutions.
  • Design and implement data reporting and analytics features to provide insights into user engagement and course effectiveness.
  • Create and integrate automation tools to streamline processes and improve efficiency.
  • Ensure the application is secure, scalable, and performs optimally, with minimal downtime.
  • Stay current with the latest industry trends and technologies to continuously enhance the product.
  • Implement version control systems, leverage Agile methodologies, and apply high-quality standards. 

About You:

You are curious, collaborative, and a life-long learner. You should be able to easily communicate technical issues to a non-technical audience, and design and deliver solutions from prototypes to fully commercial products. You should be delivery-oriented with an understanding of the tradeoffs between complete and perfect. This role is perfect for someone who thrives in a scrappy, startup-like environment and is eager to make a significant impact.

Qualifications:

  • Three or more years of proven experience as a Full Stack Engineer or similar role, preferably in the EdTech or related industry
  • Comprehensive experience with PHP as the primary programming language
  • Intermediate experience with Laravel as the key web application framework
  • General experience with VueJS for front-end operations
  • General experience with MySQL in relation to db configuration and maintenance
  • General experience with Docker as the development, testing, and deployment mechanism
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and a proactive approach to addressing challenges.
  • Works effectively in a fast-paced, startup-like environment: desires growth, takes risks on bold ideas and is open to learn from and teach others
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively with a cross-functional team.

Nice to Have:

  • Education application development experience
  • Content Management Systems engineering and support experience
  • Learning Management System engineering and support experience
  • User Interface Design experience
  • User data collection and translation to automated reports and visualizations
  • Understanding of DevOps practices and CI/CD pipelines.
  • Passion for education and a desire to make a positive impact in education.
