The Role

• Develop new educational games that captivate learners and make foundational concepts addictive to master.
• Expand our world-class universe of interactive building blocks designed to be composed in the next generation of
  learning games.
  
• Build clear and expressive APIs designed for experts and AIs.
• Own the technical implementation of games from idea to launch on a cross-functional team that trusts you to do
  what's right for our users but is there to support you when you need it.
  
• Write simple, robust, readable code that teammates and future engineers can easily maintain and extend.
• Contribute to a culture of excellence within your pod, setting high standards for candor and mutual accountability, and striking a careful balance between velocity and quality.

Who are you?

• You have at least 3 years of professional experience in web-focused software engineering, ideally with
  meaningful experience in one or more of game development, animation, or interactive media.
  
• You’re motivated by building robust, maintainable, AI-interoperable software systems that drive user and
  business outcomes.
  
• You believe in using the right tool for the job — even when it’s an unfamiliar one, and especially when it's a
  boring one.
  
• You enjoy solving technical challenges in a way simple enough for an intern to understand and build upon. You
  avoid introducing complex, novel, or "clever" solutions. You write code for humans and LLMs to comprehend.
  
• You have a favorite product and can articulate your perspective on what makes using it delightful. You often think
  about how the products you use could be better.
  
• You're constantly tinkering with AI tools and workflows and have used them to achieve surprising new levels of
  productivity.
  
• Lack of experience in a specific technology is never disqualifying, but experience with Elm or other functional
• programming languages would allow you to hit the ground running. This role works with Elm, JavaScript,
