As the Senior Software Engineer, Mobile at Bezos Academy, you will exercise your uniquely imaginative abilities to create inspiring educational technology for kids and teachers. You will have an insatiable curiosity, eagerness to build your next application the way you want, and you obsess over user happiness. Your groundbreaking products will both thrill and delight their users and enable our national school network to nurture young children's originality, foster self-agency, cultivate a love for learning, and spark joy.

You will own development and operations of new web and mobile applications utilizing Flutter. In this role, you will lead design discussions and collaborate closely with other engineers and our product management, data, and education teams. The responsibilities include analyzing product requirements, creating system and software designs, developing client applications that integrate with back-end services, and operating end-to-end applications that cultivate the playful curiosity of young children and their teachers.

You have a track record of delivering web and mobile solutions that are scalable, maintainable, and solve human problems. You can thrive in a start-up environment where you will focus on creating, improving, inventing, measuring, and innovating on behalf of our students and teachers. Above all, you are inspired by our mission to offer tuition-free, high-quality preschool in under-resourced communities, and you are motivated to create the technology to scale our Montessori-inspired preschools.
