Job Description
Overview:
We are currently hiring for our product line- Schoology, which is putting collaboration at the heart of the learning experience with an easy-to-use learning management system (LMS) that connects the people, content and systems that fuel education. Millions of students, faculty and administrators from over 60,000 K-12 schools and higher education institutions worldwide use Schoology to advance what is possible in education.
We are looking for smart, creative individuals who are passionate about education and aren’t afraid to show it.
Responsibilities:
As a member of the Assessment Team, you will be responsible for developing and supporting our Assessment Management Platform (AMP) — think back to the tests and quizzes that you may have taken in school. AMP enables Teachers and Administrators to author, deliver and grade assessments directly in Schoology. After the results are in, AMP produces comprehensive, interactive analytic reports that provide educational stakeholders with the insights they need to take action to improve student outcomes. You’ll work on a cross-functional team where you’ll play a critical role in the design, development and delivery of new features. You’ll work full stack developing and supporting systems from both the backend and frontend. On the backend you will help support and build out our emerging microservice architecture and data pipelines. On the frontend, you will build out data visualizations to help our users better understand how their students are performing. You’ll release new software every day. We practice continuous integration and continuous delivery. You’ll get your first change into production in your first week. And from there you’ll be making changes that millions of people will see nearly every day.
