Description

• Bring new features from conception to completion, helping people around the world to learn more effectively by contributing code across iOS and Android — and maybe even web! • Be mindful of the “big picture” from both a technical perspective and a business one, keeping the team on track in terms of “building the right thing” and “building the thing right”. • Exercise a high degree of autonomy and technical authority on a team that trusts you to do what's right for our users but is there to support you when you need it. • Contribute to a culture of excellence, setting high standards for candor and mutual accountability, and striking a careful balance between velocity and quality. • Advocate for initiatives that will improve developer experience for Brilliant's engineers and user experience for Brilliant's learners. • Frequently ask: How does this impact our learners?

Requirements

• You have at least 5 years of professional experience in software engineering. • You got into programming because you’re motivated by solving users’ problems. • While you're most at home in one of iOS or Android, you're capable of contributing across platforms if the situation calls for it. • You enjoy solving technical challenges in a way simple enough for an intern to understand and build upon. You avoid introducing complex, novel, or "clever" solutions. You write code for humans, not for computers. • You're excited to collaborate closely with talented engineers, product managers, and designers. You enjoy solving problems as a team, pair-programming, and sharing knowledge. You want to be a mentor and to be mentored. • You have deep experience with a few languages and frameworks, and you know what you do and do not like about them. You believe in using the right tool for the job — even when it’s an unfamiliar one, and especially when it's a boring one. You stay up-to-date with the latest technologies and patterns, recognizing the differences between a game-changer and a passing fad. • You have a favorite product and can articulate your perspective on what makes using it delightful. You often think about how the products you use could be better.
