About Varsity Tutors
Seamlessly connecting experts and learners in any subject, anywhere, anytime
We are looking for a Back-End Staff Software Engineer (Full-Time Contractor) based in South America to join us on our mission to help people learn!
This is a great opportunity to work with an amazing team and drive the technology of learning products and platforms. We operate in a highly collaborative environment with Product and Design to build experiences that matter to our customers. At Nerdy, engineers do not just write code; they actively participate in the conversation on what and how to build the systems and solutions that matter to our customers. If you love your customers as much as we do, we’d love to hear from you.
The Staff Engineer will assume a dual role as a technical leader and a visionary for our highly complex and high-performing systems. In this capacity, they will not only provide technical guidance and mentorship to the team but also play a pivotal role in shaping and driving the overarching vision of our system, aimed at enhancing the experience for our tutors and optimizing our tutor-supply chain.
This position is a full-time remote opportunity. (We’ve been remote-friendly for years, and that isn’t going away.)
The Engagement team owns our student customer-facing systems, including our digital classroom and learning tools – the experiences that students learn in. If you want to have direct, meaningful impact on our customers’ learning this is the place! You will architect scalable software solutions, understand and implement best practices, and create technology that is highly performant and extensible.
