About Panorama:
Panorama Education is a fast-growing national technology company focused on radically improving education. Over 1,500 school systems serving 13 million students across 50 states have adopted the Panorama platform to help educators collect data about non-academic factors that are key to each child’s success in school and in life, such as social-emotional learning and well-being, safety, teacher-student relationships, and family engagement.

This role can be fully remote, or you can work out of our Boston office

About the Role:
Our engineers are changing history way beyond
git rebase -i. The engineering team is involved in every step of the product cycle, working closely with Panorama’s many other teams and our users to brainstorm and build solutions to education’s toughest problems. Sure, we already have strong technical chops, but we constantly challenge ourselves to learn and grow. From lunchtime guest talks, to book clubs, hackathons, and open-source projects (both in the office and outside it), we try to improve ourselves as we help schools around the world do the same.

Responsibilities:

  • Work on fascinating and challenging problems, like:
    • Learning recommendation engines that correlate educator data with community-generated content
    • Novel data visualizations that uncover insights from school districts’ dizzying variety of data sets
    • Scale our data acquisition pipelines as we continually grow the types of student data our platform supports
  • Design, write, test, review, debug, deploy, and occasionally be frustrated by code
  • Never put developer ease or convenience over making a difference to the millions of students we serve
  • Help mentor other engineers on your team
  • Participate in evolving the strategy of your team

Our Ideal Candidate Has:

  • Has five or more years experience developing production-level code in any language (we primarily use Ruby and JavaScript, but it’s okay if you haven’t yet)
  • Has two or more years experience with web app development and deployment
  • Plans and organizes their team around meaningful initiatives, negotiating the concerns and ideas of their colleagues as they do
  • Solicits and actively integrates the inputs of others from diverse backgrounds and experiences to support inclusiveness and understanding
  • Researches industry best practices and technologies, explaining to their peers how they could help solve current problems
  • Mentors their teammates, either formally or informally

Panorama Education is dedicated to building a diverse and inclusive company because we serve students, educators and families from tremendously diverse backgrounds and identities across the country; we’ve seen how our product and impact are strengthened the more we reflect that diversity. In addition, we have found (and we believe the research) that diverse teams are higher-performing, and we embrace the varied perspectives that our team members share with each other. As such, we are an Equal Opportunity Employer.
