Job Description

We are an Instructional Content Platform that brings together engaging, accessible content with integrated assessments and insights to supercharge reading engagement and learning in every subject. We are dedicated to our mission to unlock the written word for everyone. More than three years since our launch, we are already in 75% of schools, across all 50 U.S. states, in addition to being in over 180 countries. The result has been more engaged readers—and engaged readers are better learners.
Web Application Developers in the company work on big problems in literacy education, from building the infrastructure necessary to handle tens of millions of users to solving novel problems in text complexity and personalization.  We believe that code is language and we care deeply about the relationships developers have with each other and the company as a whole.  Developers work closely with product managers, designers, and domain experts to build software that’s beautiful and useful.  If you love working on features that make a real difference, this role is for you.

The Ideal Candidate
Over 3 years of professional full-stack web application development experience.
Demonstrated contributions to complex, high-traffic, performance-optimized web applications.
Advanced demonstrated fluency in JavaScript, HTML, and CSS.
Hands-on experience with front-end frameworks, particularly React and Redux (or another Flux-like architecture).
Demonstrated ability to be self-driven and work with minimal supervision.
Demonstrated experience with Git and code collaboration in teams.
Some Plusses
Bachelor’s degree in a technical discipline.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
