About Teaching.com

Equipping students and teachers with the tools to succeed - in the classroom and beyond!

Actively Hiring

We’re working to change the future of online education by building exciting products that equip students and teachers with the tools to succeed in the classroom and beyond. We’re a small, hard-working group of self-starters who are passionate about what we do and constantly seek new ways we can be better, together. We were fully-remote before COVID, and creating a healthy remote culture is a key priority for us.

As a member at Teaching.com, you’ll be part of the team behind some of the most important educational games, with titles such as:

  • Typing.com: The world’s largest learn-to-type software, used by millions of students every day.
  • Nitro Type: The #1 educational game in the world, played by millions daily.
  • Reading.com: The only digital program specifically designed to teach children 4-7 how to read.

Who You Are & What You’ll Do:

We are looking for a curious and passionate front-end engineer with a drive towards building products that people are fanatical about to work full-time on our web products. You’re less concerned with patting yourself on the back for well-written code and more concerned with quickly and efficiently delivering value to our users, but without taking on technical debt. The ideal candidate has experience working with products at scale and the nitty-gritty details of performance optimization.

Skills & Background:

  • Exceptional communication skills, particularly written (as a remote company, we value clear and concise communication across all departments)
  • 4+ years with JavaScript, HTML and CSS
  • Production experience with React and Redux
  • Experience architecting a React 1project from scratch
  • React deployment experience
  • Experience with backend development languages and/or concepts
  • Knowledge of CLI tools (Yarn, WebPack, Babel, etc.)
  • Able to meet deadlines in a fast-paced quickly changing environment
  • A proactive approach to problem-solving with strong decision-making skills
  • A positive attitude and entrepreneurial spirit

Bonus Points:

  • Understanding of Node.js
  • Experience with Mocha or equivalent testing platform
  • Experience with legacy libraries like Backbone, jQuery, and Underscore

Compensation, Benefits & Perks:

  • Competitive salary
  • Fully-vested 401k with matching contributions
  • Annual cash profit sharing
  • Medical and dental benefits
  • Flexible office hours
  • Ongoing education assistance
  • Flexible PTO
  • Remote office hardware reimbursement
  • Company-owned laptop
  • Monthly meal adventure
  • Annual company retreat
Everyone at Teaching.com is empowered to move quickly, make decisions, and get things done so we can continue to make learning accessible to our growing community of more than 75 million students and teachers internationally.
Join the fully-remote team at Teaching.com to create, develop, and deliver fun and engaging games for students and educators!
Sorry, we will not transfer or sponsor visas.
We are an Equal Opportunity Employer.
