  • Collaborate with feature teams to understand their needs and solve them with platform capabilities;
  • Design, develop, and maintain scalable and performant APIs;
  • Write clean, maintainable, and well-documented code;
  • Participate in code reviews and provide constructive feedback to other developers.
  • What You’ll Need

  • Prior software engineering experience with API design and distributed system development;
  • Strong experience building backend services and REST or GraphQL APIs;
  • Knowledge of API design best practices around security, performance monitoring, rate limiting, and more;
  • Understanding of LLM integration and usage patterns;
  • Strong collaboration and written and verbal communication skills;
  • Past experience with cloud infrastructure, preferably on AWS;
  • Experience with Node.js or a desire to learn;
  • Experience with TypeScript or a desire to learn;
  • Background in developer tooling and API documentation is preferred.
  • Why Join Us?

  • At Instructure, you’ll lay the foundation for the use of AI in education and make a difference in the lives of millions of learners. We invest in our employees’ learning with thoughtful mentorship, hack weeks, internal conferences, and a culture where innovation and ownership thrive.

  • Private Medicover healthcare + cafeteria plan / SZEP card;
  • Wellness motivation through PandaFit;
  • An extra week off for the whole company every year;

  • Goal-setting, proactive reviews, and internal training;
  • Employee assistance program.
  • Additional Information

    We’ve always believed in hiring the most awesome people and treating them right. We know that the more diverse we are, the more diverse our ideas will be and when we openly welcome those ideas, our environment is better and our business is stronger.
