Shutterstock Required Qualifications (The Must-Haves) • Experience: 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, with at least 1+ year in a leadership or mentoring capacity. • Backend Mastery: Deep expertise in server-side languages (e.g., Node.js, PHP, Java, or Go) and API design patterns (REST/GraphQL). • Frontend Mastery: Advanced proficiency in modern frameworks (React, Vue, or Angular) and state management. • Database Mastery: Expert-level knowledge of Relational (PostgreSQL/MySQL) and Non-Relational (MongoDB/Redis) databases. You must understand ACID properties, normalization, and replication strategies. • Planning & Process: Proven ability to break down complex features into manageable tickets (Jira/Linear) and manage the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Preferred Qualifications (The "Nice-to-Haves") • Cloud Infrastructure (AWS): Hands-on experience with Amazon Web Services, specifically EC2, Lambda, RDS, S3, and CI/CD pipelines. • EdTech Domain Knowledge: Experience building software for the education sector. Familiarity with LMS standards (LTI, SCORM), SIS integrations, or student/teacher workflows is a massive plus. • Educational Background: B.S. or M.S. in Computer Science or a related engineering field.
