For twenty years, our platforms have connected the disparate systems inside schools and state agencies - student information, educator credentials, special programs, instructional spend - into a single reliable picture that leaders can act on. Our software supports more than 1,800 districts and 20 state agencies across 48+ states, touching the educational experience of over 7 million students. Our fully remote team of engineers, data specialists, and former educators build products that reduce administrative burden and turn fragmented education data into evidence for smarter decisions.\nThe Engineering organization delivers the systems state education agencies depend on to manage their educator workforce and oversee the districts they serve. We build at the state level, where a single deployment carries every educator record, every district submission, and every compliance deadline in the state - which means reliability, auditability, and the security of sensitive personnel and student data are engineering requirements, not afterthoughts. Our platforms are how states respond to educator shortages at scale, keep credentialing current as requirements shift, and maintain visibility into district performance.\nThis role is on the Talent team, which delivers teacher licensure and credentialing, district and school accreditation, statewide teacher evaluation aligned to state frameworks, and talent transparency through our statewide educator job board. The team owns the workflows that move an educator from application to classroom, and the reporting that gives agencies confidence in the quality and completeness of what's underneath.\nThe Software Engineer 1 will report to the Senior Software Engineering Manager.\nWhat You'll Do:\nDeliver well-defined stories from the team's backlog, working alongside teammates who will help you get unblocked and grow.\nWrite, test, and debug code across a C#/.NET and SQL Server core, with exposure to React and Node (TypeScript) with Postgres on our newer products.\nLearn the team's codebase and the domain behind it - how an educator moves from application to license, and what the states we serve require along the way.\nAsk questions early andoften andbuild the product and technical knowledgeyou'llneed to work more independently over time.\nParticipate in code review, both receiving feedback and learning to give it.\nContribute to the team's shared work, including testing, documentation, and production support alongside your teammates.\nParticipate fully as a member of a self-managing Scrum team, attending all ceremonies and committing to delivery with the team\nGrow deliberately-this is a roleyou'reexpected to outgrow, and your manager will work with you on the path to Software Engineer II.\nRequired Qualifications:\nStrong computer science fundamentals - algorithms, data structures, and coding fluency in at least one language.\nFoundational full-stack web development knowledge, including how web requests work, the client/server relationship,HTMLand the DOM.\nFamiliarity with the software development lifecycle and common practices such as source control, testing, and CI/CD.\nWorking knowledge of relational databases and SQL.\nIntellectual curiosity and a strong drive to grow and improve.\nWillingness to ask for help rather than staying blocked, and the ability toretainand build on what you learn.\nClear written and verbal communication - especially important on a fully remote team, where most of what you learn comes through writing.\nA collaborative disposition and genuine interest in the problemwe'resolving for schools.\nPreferred Qualifications:\nExposure to C#/.NET, or to another object-oriented language such as Java.\nExposure toJavaScript/TypeScript and a modern front-end framework such as React, Angular, or Vue.\nFamiliarity with any major public cloud provider;
