About Kiddom

Kiddom is a groundbreaking educational platform that promotes student equity and growth by uniting high-quality instructional materials with dynamic digital learning. Through unparalleled curriculum management functionality, Kiddom empowers schools and districts to take ownership of their curriculum – resulting in learning experiences tailored to meet the unique needs and goals of local communities. Kiddom’s high-quality curriculum is layered with robust teacher and leader data insights to drive the continuous improvement of instructional decisions, school/district programming, and professional learning.

The Systems Engineering team supports tools and core services that provide a great product experience to our end-users and a great developer experience to our engineering teams. A typical day might start out looking for trouble and end with project plans and cross-functional collaborations that run a thorny problem to ground.

This role combines technical leadership with strategic impact, shaping Kiddom’s systems to grow each school year. You’ll work in languages from Go to TypeScript to Python, on technologies from web APIs to graph databases to edge computing and LLMs. You will have the opportunity to drive technical change across every team. You will help engineers around you do their best work using tools you select and build. Your outtie is exceptionally good at debugging null pointer exceptions.

Note: We are only hiring in the San Francisco Bay Area OR New York City area with the expectation of coming into the office once a week minimum to help us create and shape our culture and optimize the way we work and collaborate together.

Qualifications

  • 6+ years of software development experience at scale.
  • 3+ years of experience leading cross-functional projects.
  • Fluency in Go/Golang is a must!
  • Experience managing services in AWS or other cloud platforms.
  • Experience with Docker containers and Linux virtual machines.
  • You put the dev in DevOps, bridging applications to infrastructure.

Qualities

  • Conscientious of impact, always keeping the end-user in mind.
  • Enjoy teaching best practices and learning new technologies.
  • Have a knack for finding simple solutions to big problems, enrolling engineering teams and stakeholders in your vision.
  • Track record of shipping quality products that scale without drama.
  • Calm professionalism during production incidents. Share your worst outage stories to learn and level up junior engineers.
  • Adaptable to changing customer needs and unexpected system behavior.
