[Hiring] Full-Stack Software Engineer @EnGen

Role Description

We're looking for a Full-Stack Software Engineer to help build the technology that empowers adult English learners to achieve their career goals. You'll develop and enhance our AI-powered learning platform using TypeScript/React on the frontend and Python/FastAPI on the backend.

• Deliver production software across our TypeScript/React frontend and Python/FastAPI backend — whether writing code directly or steering AI tools to generate it.
• Build responsive web applications for diverse learners across desktop and mobile.
• Design and implement scalable APIs to support our learning platform.
• Develop real-time features for interactive lessons, conversation practice, and learner-coach communication.

• Integrate Large Language Models for content classification, skill assessment, learner feedback, and personalization.
• Build information extraction systems to analyze learner responses.
• Implement AI-powered features for conversation practice and multilingual support.

• Write clean, well-tested code — and apply the same rigor when reviewing AI-generated output.
• Actively use and refine AI-assisted development workflows to improve your own productivity.
• Collaborate with product managers, designers, and education specialists.
• Contribute to A/B testing frameworks and learning experience optimization.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of professional full-stack web development experience.
• Strong proficiency in TypeScript, React, Python, and FastAPI.
• Experience integrating with LLMs (OpenAI, Anthropic, or similar) for classification, extraction, or personalization.
• Hands-on experience with AI-assisted development tools (Cursor, Claude Code, or similar) — and genuine comfort using them as part of your daily workflow.
• Experience with PostgreSQL and API design.
• Strong passion for EnGen's mission to help immigrants and refugees remove English as a barrier to career advancement.
• Self-directed and able to work independently in a remote environment.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience building edtech or language learning platforms.
• Knowledge of NLP and educational AI applications.
• Familiarity with WCAG accessibility standards.
• Experience with Railway, Cloudflare, or similar cloud infrastructure.
• Multilingual capabilities, particularly Spanish.

Benefits

• Competitive salary and equity.
• Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance.
• Flexible PTO and fully remote environment.
• Professional development budget.
• Mission-driven work with measurable real-world impact.
• $120,000 - $150,000 a year.
