- Who you’ll partner with: You will collaborate closely with Product, Design, and fellow engineers to build intuitive UIs and robust backend services.
- What success looks like: Success is measured by the delivery of robust, maintainable code and the successful execution of features that simplify complex data connections and transformations for schools.
- Key projects you’ll lead: You will develop new features for our microservices architecture, build resilient data sync pipelines, and contribute to the internal architectures that support Clever’s massive data-processing needs.
