We at Edventures believe that entrepreneurship is a means of empowerment in a more mobile and fast-moving global economy. We’re looking for you who is as interested as us in entrepreneurship and entrepreneurship education. As Lead Developer you will be in charge of both strategic and operational responsibilities, in collaboration with our other team members. You will lead the development of our web application, both front and back end, improving our architecture and overall functionality.

As Lead Developer you will be in charge of both strategic and operational responsibilities, in collaboration with our other team members. You will lead the development of our web application, both front and back end, improving our architecture and overall functionality. Since this is full stack role, we need you to wear multiple hats and help out wherever needed.

We think this role will require you to spend at least 5-10 hours per week, which means it’s a perfect side-project while having a main occuption. We believe that you are currently studying (computer science, or something equally relevant) or working as a main activity but aiming to grow with this role and eventually transition in to a full-time occupation as we get the funding required when our prototype is finished and start getting some traction.

We run a remote team of four people and are about to finalise our prototype within a few months, but due to changes in circumstances, our current Lead has too much on his plate to continue. This role is crucial to finalising the prototype and you’ll have a big mandate on making us reach this deadline. We don’t care that much about extensive experience or a fancy portfolio, but rather that you have a great interest in programming and that you wish to grow within this domain. We will introduce you to our tech stack (Angular, Golang, Python, RASA and Terraform) and our internal channels (GitLab, Telegram and Trello). If you also have a great interest in entrepreneurship education, sustainability and global issues, that’s a BIG bonus.

Applications and interviews will be ongoing as they come in.

You will...

• work from anywhere you want

• be a part of forming Edventures’ strategy and long-term vision

• be combining strategic and operational tasks

• be a major part in the technological development of our platform and tech stack

• have the opportunity to test, fail, learn and grow as a developer

• be working closely with experienced and motivated people

• be managing and guiding interns for various periods

We need you to be...

• fluent in English, spoken and written 

• interested in what we do and have a desire to grow as a developer

• somewhat experienced with full stack development (1-2 years minimum)

• somewhat experienced with Angular, Python, RASA, PostgreSQL, AWS and GitLab (and eager to learn more)

• writing clean and structured code

• be motivated and disciplined enough to be working remotely (experience is a bonus)
