Florencia Suarez VaradyFlorencia Suarez Varady, Recruiter

We're an EdTech non-profit working for marginalised children. Think start-up office atmosphere, with a big impact. We're looking for the right person to help us prototype and iterate new activities in our learning software, onecourse. It will be used by millions of children across Sub-Saharan Africa and beyond.

About the company

Our goal is for all children to have the knowledge and passion that enables them to create, innovate and become problem solvers, whether that’s within their local communities, nationally or internationally. But first, they need the basics.

We build software to transform children’s learning in reading and numeracy. All in their own language, and at their own pace. The aim of our flagship software, onecourse, is to bring children from being unable to recognise a letter or number to confidently literate and numerate.

We work with partners to implement and scale technology-based learning initiatives that see children learning through our software. In Malawi, one such initiative is being scaled to reach 3 million + primary aged children.

Role

You’ll be a full-time Android developer:

  • Working with a small team to rapidly prototype new child-focused activities for our software.
  • Iterating these prototype activities after user testing and expert feedback.
  • Carrying out quality assurance testing of new and existing learning activities.
  • Moving promising prototypes to become production-ready for incorporation into onecourse.
  • Supporting our senior developers.

Tech Requirements

  • Android (Java / Kotlin) or iOS (Objective C, Swift) native app development experience (Android is priority)
  • Dev-ops experience beneficial (linux server administration, software build and deployment automation).
  • Mobile game development experience beneficial.

Mindset

  • Passionate about technology, product and user experience.
  • A keen interest and belief in technology as a catalyst for scalable, quality education.
  • Excellent communication skills and an ability and willingness to work with content authors to prototype and iterate to perfect activities.
  • Ability to work independently, plan your own solutions to problems and iterate quickly.
  • Creativity, and an appreciation and understanding of our target audience - marginalised children.
  • Enthusiastic about working with and supporting a team.
  • The small stuff matters - attention to detail.

Benefits

  • Working with a diverse team of authors, educators and developers.
  • Knowing that what you're working on has the potential to unlock the inherent talents every child possesses.
  • Possibility for international travel.
