Original posting

New York, NY. Fulltime. Lore re-imagined what a class should look like online. We give instructors and students amazingly designed tools to manage their courses – calendaring, file management – and we make it unbelievably easy to interact with one another. Lore is looking for a super-sharp, ambitious engineer who’s able to work across the stack. We’re a passionate team building the world’s largest learning community. You’re a badass coder who loves understanding the whole stack, and jumps on anything – from simple CSS to API performance. Together we will make education more relevant, engaging, and accessible. Everyone at Lore is an artist – from customer service to engineering to user interface design. Changing the way people learn is no small task. To make it happen we need the most creative, dedicated, and detail-minded people on the planet. Lore is built primarily in Python (using Flask) and CoffeeScript. Along the way, we also use MySQL, Redis, node.js, SASS and Compass. Building the best experience for learning opens up a number of interesting technical challenges — to make it immersive, you want see interactions as they happens, and not later. As a note, we're also hiring growth product hackers and JavaScript engineers. If you're interested, shoot us an email at tech-jobs@lore.com, with information about yourself, why you're interested, and links to any work/code you can show off.
