REDWOOD CITY, CA NO REMOTE, BUT WE DO OFFER RELOCATION AND VISA SPONSORSHIP

tl;dr - We’re profitable, pride ourselves on a supportive company culture, and hiring across the board. EdTech.

Course Hero is looking for engineers who can hit the ground running in a variety of roles:

- Full-stack web

- iOS

- Server Ops

- Interns

We’re also hiring in product and marketing.

Our team releases code every day to millions of people, so we're looking for someone who can take on challenges, build new features, and iterate quickly. Each engineer has a role in building Course Hero's architecture and will have the opportunity to touch all parts of the stack. Our projects are big but our team is small, so you’ll see projects from start to finish, working closely with product managers and designers to ensure successful results.

Our company culture is very open, flat, and transparent. We succeed and learn together. Our office is very comfortable, has a lot of natural light, and great amenities like a gym and walking trails onsite. We’ve tried hard to make this a pleasant and inspiring place to do creative work.

Most importantly, we seek to hire individuals whose personality, integrity and passion for our business make our team better as a whole. We’re growing fast, profitable (yes, it’s true!), and looking for another core team member to push us toward the future.

For mobile, we’re focused on iOS for now. Our web stack is LAMP (Symfony/PHP) + jQuery and AngularJS, but we’re open to people with all kinds of experience.

Please email: jobs@coursehero.com (and put “Hacker News” in the subject)

Quick question -Does remote stand for anywhere in the world or anywhere in the country where company is located?

Remote should mean anywhere in the world but expect that some companies will prefer people who can visit a local or head office regularly, or people who work in a similar timezone or country to make things easier to coordinate.
