Software Engineer, Eedi

• Consider yourself a mid to senior level developer and React feels like an old pair of slippers (you can ship code)
• Create things from scratch. Maybe you’ve led a team or have an impressive hobby project (you have shipped code)
• Are productive and have the ability to make an impact (you like to ship code)

• Maybe you’ll be improving existing features on Eedi based on teacher feedback/data
• Or, you’ll create a component library to support a range of common components throughout all our apps
• Then perhaps, you’ll work with the Behavioural Science team to test an assumption that children learn better with fewer distractions
• Oh, and the Data & Research team might need help creating an LLM based app that let’s a teacher talk to a maths question…

• Apply online with your CV, a cover letter and answer some basic qualifying questions. I’d recommend you start your cover letter with something like “Hello!” instead of “Dear Eedi Hiring Department”
• You’ll be sent a link to a Google form with 3 questions. Answer honestly, bonus points for originality
• You’ll be sent a link to book your first interview. This interview will likely be with me (Mike, Head of Engineering). It’ll be 45mins long and will mix chit chat with a short technical test. The tech test will simulate a bug in our live coding environment that you will try and fix. No whiteboards, no theory and nothing to catch you out
• If you’re successful, you’ll be sent a link to book a half day hackathon. You’ll be paid for 4 hours work, you’ll be added to a Slack channel with other members of the team. You’ll join a Google Meet at 9am or 1pm, spend 30 mins getting you setup locally with a simple React app. You’ll have 3 hours to implement a feature based on a requirements doc + a Figma file. You’ll get as much help as you need, but this is your chance to prove you can ship. At the end of the day you’ll spend 30 mins with a person with a C at the beginning of their job title (usually Ben or Iris) for a few more questions and any remaining big questions that Mike didn’t know the answer to!
