MyEdSpace is an education technology platform that connects the best teachers on the planet with the students who need them the most - wherever they are, whatever their means. Backed by $15m in Series A funding from leading investors, we’re ready to scale – and we want you to help us build and scale MyEdSpace as part of a collaborative and ambitious team. We’re on a mission to make world‑class education accessible to all and believe every child deserves access to quality education regardless of geography or socioeconomic background, to achieve their dreams and build a brighter future.
Your Impact at MyEdSpace
We’re building the platform that powers how thousands of families experience online learning with a focus on clarity, strong domain design, and long‑term thinking. As we evolve our architecture with new Java/Node.js services and a modern React frontend, your work will shape how these systems fit together and how the product scales. You’ll join a team that values engineering fundamentals, product thinking, and a culture where impact matters more than output. This is a place where senior engineers influence direction, not just execution.
What We’re Looking For
- Strong full‑stack engineering experience – deep backend experience in Java, Node.js, or another modern stack, paired with solid React + TypeScript skills. You’re comfortable building services as well as building the UI that sits on top of them.
- AI‑augmented engineering – you use AI tools as a natural part of your workflow to accelerate development and explore solutions faster, while retaining strong engineering judgement and reviewing, challenging, and hardening AI‑generated code before it reaches production.
- Engineering fundamentals over frameworks – you think in terms of system design, data modelling, trade‑offs, and long‑term maintainability. Languages and frameworks are tools, not identity.
- Multi‑stack pragmatism – our platform spans Java, Node, React, and some existing PHP systems. You’re comfortable working in real‑world production environments and improving systems incrementally as architecture evolves.
- Architectural maturity – you understand boundaries, contracts, invariants, and how local decisions impact system coherence over time.
- Production ownership – CI/CD, containerisation, cloud environments (AWS), observability – you’re comfortable owning code beyond the merge.
- Value‑driven mindset – you care about solving the right problem sustainably, not just shipping features.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Designing and building end‑to‑end product features across backend services and our React frontend.
- Building well‑structured, testable backend services and clean, reusable frontend components with attention to performance, usability, and long‑term maintainability.
- Contributing to a multi‑stack production environment, improving existing systems thoughtfully while helping evolve the overall architecture.
- Modelling domains, defining boundaries, and contributing to architectural decisions that keep the system coherent as it scales.
- Using AI tools to accelerate development – while reviewing, validating, and refining generated code before it reaches production.
- Owning work beyond feature delivery: CI/CD, observability, performance, and production behaviour.
- Participating in code reviews and technical discussions with a focus on clarity, trade‑offs, and engineering judgement.
- Improving reliability, security, and operational robustness as the platform grows.
- Raising the engineering bar through thoughtful feedback, pragmatic decisions, and steady improvement rather than dramatic rewrites.
Why You’ll Love Working Here
- The chance to make a real impact: your work directly shapes the future of education.
- A fast‑paced and high‑growth environment where ideas move quickly and careers accelerate.
- A collaborative, supportive culture: we’re headquartered in the UK, but we’re a global team with colleagues in 15+ countries, bringing a rich mix of perspectives and energy.
We are committed to building a diverse team and strongly encourage applications from candidates of all backgrounds. We believe diverse perspectives make us stronger and help us build a better product for students around the world.
