  • Turn complex or incomplete requirements into clear, practical and usable product solutions.
  • Design and build product experiences that integrate naturally with learning platforms and education systems.
  • Work across frontend, backend, APIs, integrations and data models where needed.
  • Build prototypes quickly, test them with users and turn successful concepts into reliable, maintainable products.
  • Work closely with Backend and AI Engineers to make technical and AI capabilities genuinely useful in real education workflows.
  • Improve usability, reliability, performance and product quality through active iteration.
  • Investigate issues independently, identify the underlying problem and drive practical improvements.
  • Use AI-assisted development tools where appropriate to accelerate delivery while maintaining strong engineering judgement and product quality.

  • Solid understanding of authentication, permissions, validation, workflows and data-backed products.
  • Experience taking incomplete requirements and turning them into practical software solutions.
  • Strong product judgement and an ability to simplify complex user needs.
  • A self-driven working style, with the confidence to investigate, propose and test solutions rather than waiting for detailed instructions.
  • Comfortable speaking with non-technical users and education partners to build a better understanding of the product.
  • Experience with PostgreSQL, modern cloud platforms and application deployment.
  • Strong ownership, debugging and problem-solving skills.
  • Clear written and spoken English.
