Learning Equality | Full-stack web developers & Python developers | San Diego | https://learningequality.org/ | ONSITE (preferred) or REMOTE | Full-time

# Who we are

We're a not-for-profit team that builds open-source educational software for communities with limited or no access to the Internet. We believe in the transformative power of learning, and are passionate about social justice and breaking down barriers that prevent people from reaching their full potential.

We started 4 years ago with KA Lite (https://learningequality.org/ka-lite/), an offline-installable platform bundling Khan Academy content and our own student tracking tools, which is being used in nearly 200 countries and territories.

We're now in the process of releasing our second-generation platform, Kolibri (https://learningequality.org/kolibri/), which empowers users to create, curate, share, and learn from diverse forms of openly licensed content, both online and offline. We're building tools for authoring videos and exercises, an app ecosystem for embedding and distributing HTML5 educational bundles, features for discovering and communicating with other devices peer-to-peer over a local network, interfaces and web-based visualizations for exploring student data, and systems for motivating, engaging, and guiding learners. On the backend, we use Python/Django, and on the frontend we use Vue.js and (in one project) Backbone.js.

We recently received significant funding from Google.org to support our work (https://www.google.org/our-work/education/learning-equality/), and our team has doubled from 10 to 20 full-time staff in the past year. We're now building out further to support new initiatives, including a project for refugee education with UNHCR, and to continue to build towards our longer-term vision. It's an exciting period of growth, both for our team and for our impact, and there are lots of ways you could make a difference!

# Who you are

You care deeply about making the world a better place, believe in the power of learning, strive to promote equality, and resonate with our statement of core values (https://learningequality.org/about/values/). You love to build things, and like to think carefully about how best to serve the needs of a diverse set of users.

NNF Center for Biosustainability | Full Stack Engineer | Copenhagen Denmark | ONSITE | VISA

Full-stack Developer for Synthetic Biology Platform

The focus of The Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Biosustainability is synthetic biology and strain design. Living cells are being genetically modified in order to produce chemicals in a sustainable way. The list of things that can be made by engineered strains includes biofuels, bioplastics, drugs, food supplements and much more.

Engineering a living cell is an incredibly hard task. Mathematical and computational models are being developed in order to make computer-aided design of biology possible. The project we are hiring you for is about building a web platform to provide easy access to metabolic models so the development of new strains becomes faster and cheaper. The platform already has the capabilities of modifying cells right in your browser window and constraining the models with real experimental data in order to gain insights about cell metabolism. You can get more information about the project at http://dd-decaf.eu/.

We are looking for a full-stack developer with a strong focus on the frontend. You will be dealing with biological concepts every day, discovering the best ways to operate with genes and biochemical reactions. Deep understanding of biology is not a requirement though, most of the developers in the institute were able to gain the necessary knowledge after joining the team. Our technology stack at the moment is

  * AngularJS (ongoing migration to Angular 5), Angular Material, Typescript
  * Python3.6 for the backend services (aiohttp framework) and core scientific libraries
  * Postgres, MongoDB, Redis, Neo4j
  * Docker
