Skills you'll use

What you'll do

• We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join the Pear Deck Learning team. Pear Deck Learning is our all-in-one platform that supports every instructional step in any topic: Pear Start for planning and delivering high-quality lesson packages, Pear Deck for increasing student participation through tailor-made presentations and real-time feedback, Pear Practice for differentiated, gamified practice with standards-aligned content, and Pear Assessment for versatile assessments and crystal-clear reports. You’ll contribute across the full stack of this suite, which serves hundreds of thousands of teachers and students in real time. This position is based in India and works closely with US-based product and engineering teams, so strong written communication and comfort operating with partial time-zone overlap are essential.

Who can apply

• 5+ years of experience as a software engineer on SaaS or customer-facing products, including leading delivery of complex, large-scale features.
• Strong TypeScript and modern React (hooks, React 18, Vite or similar tooling), with an eye for performant, accessible UI.
• Production experience with Node.js and/or Go on the backend -- including concurrency, service-to-service communication, and asynchronous/background processing -- and willingness to work in both.
• Experience designing APIs (REST and/or gRPC) for high-throughput systems, including versioning, validation, and documentation.
• Solid SQL proficiency (MySQL or PostgreSQL) with schema design and query optimization experience; familiarity with document stores like MongoDB.
• Familiarity with caching strategies (Redis/Redis Cluster) and event/queue systems (Kafka, SQS/SNS, or Pub/Sub).
• Experience building or operating real-time features (WebSockets, SSE, or Firebase-style realtime databases) at meaningful scale.
• Working knowledge of cloud infrastructure -- AWS and/or GCP -- plus Docker and an orchestration platform (ECS or Kubernetes); comfort with infrastructure-as-code (Terraform or Helm).
• A habit of writing tested code (Vitest, Jest, React Testing Library, or Go testing/testify) and improving test coverage where it’s thin.
• Comfort navigating large existing codebases -- including legacy code mid-migration -- and complex local dev environments (Docker Compose, monorepos, generated code).
