TalentXM is a global talent and technology company focused on connecting organizations with world-class engineering and AI talent. Our teams work with innovative product companies across industries including fitness, wellness, HR tech, education, and enterprise software.

We are currently hiring a Backend-Focused Full-Stack Software Engineer to join a distributed product team building a modern education member-management platform used by administrators, instructors, members, and students.
