Responsibilities & Requirements

We're building a large scale web service using modern web technologies to deliver learning experiences to students. You'll join a small, nimble team of experienced educators, software engineers, and graphic artists with experience in large corporations and small start-ups (including Amazon.com, Apple, Data General, Drugstore.com, Expedia, Google, Headbone Interactive, Humongous Entertainment, IBM, Junglee, Microsoft, Next, Pure Networks, Rational Software, Software Publishing, UIEvolution, VMWare and the Walt Disney Internet Group).

Our culture is high-integrity, informal, and intense.

You will be working on the strategy, architecture, design, implementation, debugging, and support of our products. You must be willing to read patents and esoteric academic papers, write high-quality code in a collaborative programming environment, design user interface components, build unit test cases, deploy builds, fix bugs, and (yes) answer your cell phone if the web site has a problem. In short, everything. We'll keep process to a minimum so you can focus on the work you enjoy — writing code!

  • Passion for solving hard problems related to machine learning, knowledge modeling, and education.
  • Intense experience with engineering and shipping software products.
  • Experience with web development (HTML, DHTML, Flash, Flex, SQL, Ajax) a plus.
  • At least 8 years software engineering experience.
  • Demonstrated team building and collaborative skills; start-up winners preferred.
  • BS in Computer Science. MS CS preferred.
