Software Engineers Chicagoland Instructure
We hire bright, talented people. All engineers contribute to the product in a meaningful way. The product team doesn't throw specs over some imaginary wall to engineering, and engineering doesn't throw code over some imaginary wall to QA. We all collaborate together.
Most of our work is open sourced, even our primary product. (http://github.com/instructure) We are changing how teachers and students interact, whether in small groups or with tens of thousands of students in one course. Check out our online courses at canvas.net.
If you like the Salt Lake City area or the Chicagoland area, we?re adding engineers to our development teams to work in a collaborative, casual work environment. If you would like to live and work somewhere else, let us know, we have lots of remote engineers too.
We're not big fans of traditional job descriptions, so...
If you like front-end development, back-end development, mobile or some combination of these, let's talk. There are lots of interesting, complex, and challenging problems that will leverage your skills; oh, and new things come up every day.
Here are some things we use, so experience in these is a plus: Ruby, Rails, CoffeeScript, JavaScript, SASS, Postgres, Redis, Cassandra.
Here?s why we look for those things:
- Front-end development using CoffeeScript, Backbone
- Back-end development using Ruby on Rails.
- We have integrated QA, and automation QA
- We use PostgreSQL, Linux, and our platform runs on AWS.
- Native mobile apps on iOS and Android.
