Cape Town, South Africa Code4Kids Full time

Code4Kids is here to make teaching easier and bring coding, robotics and IT into the school classroom. We’re a fast-growing software company that provides a curriculum and tools for teachers to use in the school classroom to teach students aged 5-15 years old. Founded in South Africa, Code4Kids now operates globally, including New Zealand and the UK. We’re looking to expand further with better tools in more markets and are looking for a talented and ambitious engineer to help us accelerate the release of education tools and features. We’re a company that has a few different education products including Lessonspace

We are looking for someone to take up a lead engineering role, with a passion for coding education as well as the leadership and technical skills in the realm of product development and engineering.

You will be responsible for the end-to-end development of new Code4Kids products. This will require a combination of engineering and product leadership. From an engineering perspective you will need to be experienced in technologies such as Node.js and Vue. You will need to be able to understand and lead the development of the data structures required to deliver core features.

From a product perspective you will need to have a creative eye to understand the UI/UX impact your work will have on customers. You will also need to be an expert leader, communicator and product owner with proven ability to manage various stakeholders and deliver a product.

**Requirements**:
**As a Full-stack Engineering & Product Lead, you will be required to**:

- Take ownership for the development of the engineering and product team.
- Work closely with the team to release features on the product roadmap.
- Be able to take full ownership of your feature releases, testing and reliability.
- Understand the entire stack, infrastructure, internal development requirements, resources as well as customer-facing features.
- You will be working with a combination of engineering, support and sales teams.

**Requirements of the role**:

- A University degree is not needed, but would be ideal. 5+ years of experience in the industry.
- Experience working in an engineering team and engaging with clients.
- Experience working with Node.js as a backend. Bonus: experience with AdonisJS in particular.
- Experience in the usual frontend stack; HTML, CSS, Javascript, a reactive framework like Vue or React and frontend testing frameworks like Jest and Cypress.
- An added extra if you have experience with AWS (or GCP / Azure) Bonus: if you have experience with 3D libraries like Three.js, 3D design tools like Blender, or game development experience in platforms like Unity, be sure to mention it

**Realities of the Role**

We have a Cape Town office in the city center, however we are mostly remote. Working in a remote role with high-paced feature release requirements will result in some days feeling challenging while others will be very high energy. Oftentimes, you will need to be managing multiple projects of different sizes, in various stages of the development. Working at Code4Kids is exciting and we are treading new territory in the education technology industry. You will have the opportunity to contribute significantly to the company’s growth during this pivotal time.

**Benefits**

**What will help you to find success in this role**:

- A good time keeper with the ability to project manage yourself and clearly communicate progress, difficulties or lack of clarity.
- Be able to break large projects into small frequent releases.
- Able to spend days or hours working through problems yourself, often without frequent contact, balanced with the enjoyment of small-group team meetings and creative discussions.

**Remuneration and work environment**:

- Code4Kids is a fully-remote team, from time-to-time we might ask you to join us at our office in Cape Town should it be practical.
- You will report directly to the CEO and Head of Product. Remuneration is negotiable.
