Software Developer | Mission-Driven EdTech Startup

Are you excited by the idea of building technology that genuinely changes lives?

We’re a purpose-driven EdTech startup on a mission to transform learning outcomes for students across the UK — and we’re looking for a talented Software Developer to join as our second engineering hire.

You’ll work directly with the founders to build intuitive, impactful features for learners and educators. This is a chance to shape our platform, product, and engineering culture from day one.

What You’ll Do

• Contribute across our core learning platform, from backend systems to user-facing features
• Build, test, and ship new functionality that improves learning experiences
• Collaborate with product, design, and real users to solve meaningful problems
• Help define engineering practices and foster an inclusive, collaborative culture
• Bring a product mindset — you’re not just writing code, you’re creating solutions

What We’re Looking For

• Strong experience in software development (Python, JavaScript, or similar)
• Ability to work across the stack (experience with React, Node.js, or Firebase a plus)
• Passion for creating engaging, user-friendly applications
• Curiosity about gamification, interactive content, or education tools
• Enthusiasm for early-stage startup life — where your work has visible, tangible impact

Why You’ll Love It Here

• Mission with meaning – your work will directly help students and educators thrive
• Ownership – generous equity and the chance to shape the company from the start
• Small, agile team – move fast, collaborate closely, and see your ideas come to life
• Real impact – decisions you make will influence how thousands of students learn

If you’re a Software Developer who wants to build things that matter and get in early on something with purpose, we’d love to hear from you.
