We’re looking for a Senior Full Stack Engineer to join our Growth Pod - a fast-moving, experiment-driven group focused on building features that increase user engagement and accelerate product adoption. This is a hands-on technical role where you will rapidly prototype, iterate, and ship features that directly shape how educators and students experience Kiddom.

You’ll work within a small, agile team of 3–4 engineers, collaborating closely with product and design to bring impactful ideas to life. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in ambiguity, enjoys data-informed experimentation, and is energized by fast learning cycles and continuously learning new technologies. You should be an engineer who is AI native and curious - someone who uses AI tools daily to accelerate development, improve code quality, and meaningfully incorporate AI into user-facing experiences.

What you'll do...

• Build end-to-end solutions from React/TypeScript frontends to GoLang and Python backend services (being highly experienced in one of these can be sufficient)
• Rapidly prototype new ideas and ship iterative features using lean development principles
• Partner and support other engineers on the team in related work in the development lifecycle
• Analyze performance and user engagement data to assess feature quality and propose improvements
• Turn product concepts into robust, scalable solutions while balancing speed and long-term maintainability
• Collaborate closely with product, design, and data partners to test hypotheses and deliver measurable outcomes
• Work with advanced technologies, including AI/LLM integrations, and leverage AI tools to enhance engineering velocity and product quality
• Contribute to architectural decisions, tooling enhancements, and best practices across the stack

What we're looking for...

• 5-7+ years of professional software development experience
• A full-stack mindset with willingness to work across frontend, backend, infrastructure, and experimentation tooling
• A data-informed perspective - comfortable implementing data tracking, analyzing metrics, interpreting experiment results, and using insights to guide iteration
• A collaborative, product-minded engineer who enjoys working directly with design and PM partner
• Someone who embraces fast iteration, incomplete information, and continuous learning
• An AI-native engineer who knows how to select, use, learn, and apply AI tools effectively in both development and product experiences

Bonus...

• Growth engineering experience
• CI/CD experience (GitHub Actions or similar)
• Familiarity with the AWS ecosystem (Lambda, ECS, RDS, k8s, containerized applications)
