JOB DESCRIPTION

Allovue believes every student deserves access to the resources they need to be successful in school. Our education resource planning software empowers K–12 administrators at every level to allocate resources to best support the needs of their students. We seek people who are creative, funny, humble, flexible, motivated, collaborative, and problem-solvers. We love and respect our team members. We also love silly GIFs.

Your Role

Allovue is looking for engineers that display a love of their craft and are continuing to strive to learn more about programming and building software in general. We don’t stop at helping to facilitate K–12 education; we strongly believe to stop learning is to grow stagnant. We are looking for candidates that are varied in experiences and are generally well-versed in one or more specific areas of practice. Those areas may include:
  • front-end development

  • back-end development

  • data mining

  • operations

We have services written in R and Ruby: including a Rails API. We use Postgres and Elasticsearch as our persistence layers and Ember.js as the framework we currently use for our client-side application. Some languages we have been evaluating for upcoming services include Clojure, Elixir, and Node.js. We do not expect a candidate to have all of those skills currently, but s/he should be proficient in building web applications at scale.

Qualifications
  • 5+ years of professional software development

  • Comprehensive knowledge of one or more of these languages: · JavaScript · Ruby · Clojure

  • Experience with MVC frameworks and paradigms

  • Excellent designer of APIs for other developers (and future self!)

Allovue’s Current Stack

  • Thoughtfulness: By balancing intuition, pragmatism, and information, we keep educators and their goals in mind when building our company and our products.
  • Humility: We take pride in our work, and its importance, while remaining humble in our process and remembering that the students are the bottom line.
  • Diversity: Our team is varied in our backgrounds, but singular in our vision. We’re committed to solving the problems our customers face.

Perks and Benefits

  • Competitive salary, commensurate with experience
