• Help debug and improve existing code, including basic performance tuning and refactoring with support from the team.

Collaboration & Problem-Solving

• Partner with Product, Design, and Educational Content teammates to understand requirements and implement well-scoped technical tasks.
• Collaborate with other engineers through pair programming, code reviews, and team discussions to learn and improve.
• Participate in standups, sprint planning, and cross-functional check-ins, providing clear updates on progress and blockers.

Quality & Reliability

• Write and maintain unit tests (and assist with integration tests) to support stable, reliable releases.
• Help verify that content and features run as expected across supported platforms/devices.
• Assist in monitoring deployments and troubleshooting issues, escalating when needed and documenting learnings.
