About the role
What do we do for school districts?
Currently, we’re helping our districts adapt to the pandemic and properly provide for their communities.. Our admins are figuring out how to deliver PPEs to their schools, how to feed families when classes are not in session, how to give internet access to students without it at home, how to support special needs with remote learning and more. To do all this, they not only need to communicate rapid changes to their staff, they also need to ensure everyone has the tools they need to do their day to day work along with these new responsibilities. Our platform and team enables the processes that help districts keep ahead of these evolving needs and support their people.
Types of work you might be doing:
- Building a consistent and reusable front end architecture to support our long term vision
- Digging into back end performance issues
- Exploring the space and find solutions to problems that we may not know we even have
- Contributing to our engineering culture that encourages everyone to bring their whole selves to work
- A little bit of everything both in engineering and across the company
How is this job unique?
The mindset that runs through everything that we do is our focus on having an equitable, diverse and inclusive culture. How we sell our platform, how we support our districts, and how we write our code. Every team and process works in a way that takes those values and goals into consideration. We conduct onsite research to understand the day to day of everyone who touches the platform from the front office secretary at the school site to the assistant superintendent of business in the district office. We also work to be intentional in how we collaborate as an engineering team to make sure that our newest engineers are supported and have the space to speak up and that our most senior people continue to have to space to learn and hone their craft.
