About the Role:
We are looking for a Staff Software Engineer (Full-Time Contractor) based in South America to join us on our mission to help people learn! This is a great opportunity to work with an amazing team and drive the technology of learning products and platforms. We operate in a highly collaborative environment with Product and Design to build experiences that matter to our customers. At Varsity Tutors, engineers do not just write code; they actively participate in the conversation on what and how to build the systems and solutions that matter to our customers. If you love your customers as much as we do, we'd love to hear from you.
We use big data and machine learning, taking into account hundreds of variables, including Learner and Expert attributes, adaptive diagnostic assessments, and data from past learning experiences. But really, we are just getting started and have so much more headroom to innovate. You will architect scalable software solutions, understand and implement best practices, and create technology that is highly performant and extensible.
The Staff Engineer will serve as a technical leader, overseeing a high-performing squad of 4-5 senior engineers. The individual will be instrumental in guiding the design, architecture, and development of robust, scalable, and innovative software solutions aimed at enhancing the experience for our tutors and optimizing our tutor-supply chain.
Key Responsibilities:
This position is a full-time remote opportunity. (We've been remote friendly for years, and that isn't going away).
