Who You Will Be

As a Software Developer at Simple Syllabus, you will work closely with all members of our team to help make Simple Syllabus a more compelling and competitive product. In addition to coding, you will be involved in all aspects of the software development lifecycle, and will have an integral role in defining how we achieve our goals.

You will collaborate with the entire team as we decide on the direction of the product and create new features to implement. You will be expected to present and defend ideas, as well as challenge ideas from other team members, all in a positive and constructive environment. Likewise, you will work closely with the CTO in determining the best way to maintain and improve the application architecture.

At the core of the position will be writing high quality and properly commented code to implement features, fix defects, and refactor existing components. You will also be expected to participate in code review and help maintain internal documentation. Finally, you will be part of a support rotation to triage escalated client issues.

For candidates interested in interfacing with clients, opportunities exist to be a Tech Lead on our implementation projects. This will include helping to define how a specific client implements the Simple Syllabus product, working with their technical staff to ensure a proper implementation of data transfers, and assisting with setting up of SSO and third party application integrations.

We are not looking for a developer with experience in every aspect of our core stack (Angular, PHP, PostgreSQL). What we are looking for is someone who loves writing code and wants to see their work and ideas leveraged by a small and growing company.

What's In It For You

A chance to change the world, of course, or at the very least how higher education delivers information to students.

In a young and rapidly growing SaaS software company, you will have the ability to impact change and greatly affect the trajectory of the business. Your role and responsibilities will be partially decided by you, as you take slack from our existing team. You will also receive a base salary between $45k - $60k, company sponsored healthcare, and a benefits package that includes flexible vacation days.
