Description
At Instructure, we are building the world’s best ecosystem for teaching and learning. Millions of students and teachers use our products around the world, and we’re always finding ways to innovate and improve their experience.

We are hiring world class software engineers to solve some of education’s hardest data problems at cloud-scale. By focusing on our values — ownership, openness, simplicity, and relationships — and using a modern stack that includes Node.js, AWS, Kubenetes. If this sounds interesting, we should talk.

What we do:

  • We build an identity service at scale that helps our product teams to synchronize user data and provides a smoother experience to our users across our products.
  • This is a greenfield project. Initial joiners will have a large influence on how it’s implemented.
  • We grow great products by investing in the teams that create them: the hallmarks of our engineering culture are constructive code review, hackweeks, internal conferences, a bias to action, thoughtful mentorship, and regular communication.
  • We work with Amazon Web Services to provision infrastructure, reduce costs, and scale traffic.
  • We write testable, performant code that can scale to tens of millions of requests per day.
  • Mentor and teach other engineers, encouraging best practices and fostering code reuse.

What we look for:

  • 8+ years of experience in modern programming languages, preferably JavaScript/TypeScript
  • Experience in implementing identity management solutions (e.g. Ping Identity, Auth0, home grown) for a large userbase.
  • Deep understanding of identity technologies (OAuth 2, SSO implementations, SAML, LDAP,..)
  • Knowledge and experience in identity management security.
  • Experience with cloud-hosted, high-traffic applications, especially via AWS
  • Experience with databases relational or non-relational.
  • A bias to action, desire for ownership, and love for problem-solving
  • Demonstrated excellence in programming, debugging, architecture, and DevOps — our engineers design, build, and deploy their own code
  • Strong communication skills

Get it on all the awesome at Instructure:

  • A fun, friendly, and helpful company culture
  • Competitive compensation
  • Private Medicover healthcare + cafeteria plan/SZEP card
  • Wellness motivation through PandaFit
  • An extra week off for the whole company every year
  • Employee recognition program through Motivosity
  • Goal-setting, proactive reviews, and internal training
  • Employee assistance program
We’ve always believed in hiring the most awesome people and treating them right. We know that the more diverse we are, the more diverse our ideas will be and when we openly welcome those ideas, our environment is better and our business is stronger.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
  • Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
  • The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
  • Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
  • We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
  • We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
  • From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
  • We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
  • If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
  • EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
