Senior Software Engineer, Backend

TeachFX is transforming how schools around the world use data to improve teaching and learning. We use machine learning over classroom audio to provide teachers with actionable insights into their instruction. At scale, our data helps instructional leaders the visibility they need to improve instruction across their districts, support teachers, and elevate student learning.

With $14M funding backed by best-in-class investors like Reach Capital, Brighteye Ventures, Ulu Ventures, and Newfund, we’re a mission-driven team looking for engineers who want to bring cutting-edge AI into classrooms across the globe.

What You’ll Do

  • Build AI-powered products: Design, code, and ship full-stack features that turn classroom audio into meaningful feedback and insights for teachers and leaders.

  • Co-create with educators: Work closely with team members, teachers and district partners to understand their needs, test new ideas, and ensure our features drive lasting instructional change.

  • Own end-to-end delivery: Take projects from spec to production—data models, APIs, frontend polish, monitoring, and iteration.

  • Ensure quality at scale: Build, test, and maintain features for reliability, security, and performance in real-world classrooms.

You might be a good fit if:

  • You have a solid foundation in computer science with strong competencies in data structures, algorithms, and software design.

  • You have an ownership mindset. You embrace both responsibility and accountability.

  • You have prior experience building high quality software, following coding best practices.

  • You enjoy working on a team and in a pair programming environment.

  • You are passionate about social impact and education. You are excited to have an impact on tens of millions of kids' lives through your work

Exceptional candidates will also have:

  • 6+ years of industry software engineering experience

  • Experience with Google Cloud Platform services and/or other technologies in our tech stack.


Our tech stack: We use React and React Native for our frontend, and Django with GraphQL for our backend. In addition, we use Airflow, Docker, Expo, SQL, BigQuery and other Google Cloud Platform services.

TeachFX is an equal opportunity employer and we value diversity at our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
