Software Engineer

Engineers at Brilliant work in small, elite teams alongside colleagues from Product, Design, and Data to achieve the best possible outcomes for our learners and business. While Brilliant is happy with their current team size and velocity, they occasionally hire exceptional software engineers with demonstrated histories of transformative impact to further elevate the team. Engineers bring new features from conception to completion, helping people around the world to learn more effectively by contributing code across our entire stack. Engineers are mindful of the “big picture” from both a technical perspective and a business one. They exercise a high degree of autonomy and technical authority on a team that trusts them to do what’s right for our users but is there to support you when you need it and contribute to a culture of excellence within their pod, setting high standards for candor and mutual accountability, and striking a careful balance between velocity and quality. They also advocate for initiatives that will improve developer experience for Brilliant’s engineers and user experience for Brilliant’s users, frequently asking: How does this impact our learners?
