We use Node.js on the backend and a Backbone/React-based framework on the front-end. We are looking for someone who's excited about getting their hands dirty in all part of the stack. You are a experienced Javascript developer who wants to get in on building the future of ed-tech from the bottom up. You want to be an integral part in inventing new ways for students to learn foreign languages. You love to learn, and equally love to share your knowledge with others.

Your code is architected for scalability, re-use, and testability. Your operators are always === and you are a master of closures. You have strong opinions on code structure and modularization. You're pretty darn excited about react, isomorphic flux, generators, and FRP. • Responsibilities Own and drive projects from idea spec to production. Work closely with product and design teams. Continually iterate on product features using analytics and user feedback. • Requirements Experience with Node.js. Experience in front-end JS development, and preferably in a framework like Backbone, Angular, etc. Always thinking about scalability and performance bottlenecks. A test-driven mindset.
