About the Organization

EnGen offers an at-scale, AI-powered approach to English instruction, designed to solve a systemic access issue: Adult English learners now represent 1 in 10 working-age adults in the U.S., yet the workforce system serves the needs of just 4% of these workers.

A Certified B Corporation, EnGen is filling the gap by partnering with employers, adult educators, workforce development organizations, and state governments to connect job seekers and incumbent workers with English skills, career pathways, and employment in high-demand industries. EnGen's workforce-aligned approach addresses employers' recruitment and retention challenges and advances learners' economic mobility.

Position Overview

We're looking for a Full-Stack Software Engineer to help build the technology that empowers adult English learners to achieve their career goals. You'll develop and enhance our AI-powered learning platform using TypeScript/React on the frontend and Python/FastAPI on the backend.

We expect our engineers to be fluent in AI-assisted development — using tools like Cursor and Claude Code to write, review, and ship code faster and at higher quality. You should be comfortable directing AI to generate code, critically evaluating what it produces, and knowing when to write it yourself.

Deliver production software across our TypeScript/React frontend and Python/FastAPI backend — whether writing code directly or steering AI tools to generate it

Build responsive web applications for diverse learners across desktop and mobile

Design and implement scalable APIs to support our learning platform

Develop real-time features for interactive lessons, conversation practice, and learner-coach communication

Integrate Large Language Models for content classification, skill assessment, learner feedback, and personalization

Build information extraction systems to analyze learner responses

Implement AI-powered features for conversation practice and multilingual support

Write clean, well-tested code — and apply the same rigor when reviewing AI-generated output

Actively use and refine AI-assisted development workflows to improve your own productivity

Collaborate with product managers, designers, and education specialists

Contribute to A/B testing frameworks and learning experience optimization

5+ years of professional full-stack web development experience

Strong proficiency in TypeScript, React, Python, and FastAPI

Experience integrating with LLMs (OpenAI, Anthropic, or similar) for classification, extraction, or personalization

Hands-on experience with AI-assisted development tools (Cursor, Claude Code, or similar) — and genuine comfort using them as part of your daily workflow

Experience with PostgreSQL and API design

Strong passion for EnGen's mission to help immigrants and refugees remove English as a barrier to career advancement

Self-directed and able to work independently in a remote environment

Experience building edtech or language learning platforms

Knowledge of NLP and educational AI applications

Familiarity with WCAG accessibility standards

Experience with Railway, Cloudflare, or similar cloud infrastructure

Multilingual capabilities, particularly Spanish

Competitive salary and equity

Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance

Flexible PTO and fully remote environment

Professional development budget

Mission-driven work with measurable real-world impact
