Sr. Fullstack Engineer, Core Services

Inspired by our belief that anyone can learn anything and powered by our own curiosity, we build the smartest tools we can imagine to help students learn.  

Quizlet is the popular, global learning platform and app that millions of students, teachers and everyday people use to study any subject imaginable for school, work or as part of their personal interests -- including two-thirds of high school students and half of all college students in the US. Combining cognitive science and machine learning, Quizlet guides students through adaptive study activities to confidently reach their learning goals. We’re on track to become the undisputed leader in user-generated learning content and engagement, at the scale of YouTube.  

Valued at $1 billion, Quizlet has raised over $60 million in venture capital from investors including Icon Ventures, Union Square Ventures, General Atlantic, Costanoa Ventures, Owl Ventures, and Altos Ventures.  

To serve our global community of learners, our teams tackle lofty technical challenges and design for use cases across cultures and languages. We work hard, act like owners, and collaborate every chance we get. We’re energized by the potential to power more learners through multiple approaches and various tools.

The Core Services team builds integrations and tooling to support our Marketing and User Ops teams at Quizlet as well as new services to support our Product teams . We empower our Lifecycle Marketing team to engage with our users in personalized, targeted ways and with information that is relevant to their needs. For our User Ops team, we aim to reduce the manual steps involved with user support and content moderation to prevent abuse and ensure our users get the product support they need in a timely fashion. On the Brand Marketing side, our team provides an integration with Prismic to make it easy to create and update content on our website. 

We’re a mid-sized team that is frequently involved in cross-team projects on the product side of things at Quizlet, helping other teams integrate and deploy new features for our users.

We’re looking for a strong fullstack developer who is equally comfortable with frontend and backend development and has experience building out new services. A successful candidate will enjoy working closely with people from all areas of Quizlet, building new internally facing features, improving integrations with 3rd party software, fixing bugs, and leading projects. They will learn a lot about marketing and support workflows as well as get exposure to various product integrations and programming languages we use for our core product as well as services our team creates and maintains. This position provides a great opportunity to work on interesting projects with a team that is frequently solving new problems and working in a large codebase where we frequently get the chance to learn new things.

This is a hybrid role based out of our Denver, Los Angeles, Seattle, and San Francisco hub offices.

We work to create a holistic interview process, where both Quizlet and candidates have an opportunity to view what it would be like to work together, in exploring a mutually beneficial partnership.

We provide a transparent setting, that gives a comprehensive view of who we are!  

We hope you are excited about everything you read so far. We highly encourage you to apply for this position, even if you feel you do not meet all the requirements. Quizlet is always looking for amazing folks that believe in our mission and can contribute to our team in various ways - not merely candidates that fit a certain mold.

We have a bias for action, take initiative, and take pride in delivering results. We make informed decisions whenever possible but are unafraid to take calculated risks on great ideas to promote learning. We embrace challenges and see effort as the path to mastery. We’re constantly seeking opportunities to learn and we embrace curiosity. Quality matters at Quizlet, and we hold the bar high on everything we do.

 

We treat each other with honesty and respect, encourage vigorous debate, and seek critical feedback. We value diversity, humility, transparency, and collaboration as the best paths to our success — as individuals, as a team, and as a company.

Quizlet’s success as an online learning community depends on a strong commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. We are actively working to build a team that is representative of the diverse communities we serve, and an open, inclusive work environment where all employees can thrive. As an equal opportunity employer and a tech company committed to societal change, we welcome applicants from all backgrounds. Women, people of color, members of the LGBTQ+ community, individuals with disabilities, and veterans are strongly encouraged to apply. Come join us!
