📚 Education

Education • Software • Technology

Desmos is a company that creates innovative math tools and resources, aiming to help everyone learn, love, and grow with math. They offer a range of calculators including graphing, scientific, and 3D calculators, as well as geometry tools. Desmos is also part of Amplify's classroom platform, providing interactive K–12 lessons. They partner with educational assessments and offer an API for embedding their tools into products.

📋 Description

• Introduce yourself on Slack to your new co-workers! • Learn about our process for writing, testing, and deploying code. • Ask a ton of questions. • Ship your first piece of code to production! • Familiarize yourself with the technologies and frameworks we use, and how we’ve adapted them to our unique needs (e.g. Typescript, Node, Postgres, Redis, Mathquill, ProseMirror, our in-house, front-end framework). • Contribute to your first user-facing feature in collaboration with other teams (product, design, support, business). • Start participating in pair programming and reviewing code from other engineers. You'll provide careful, deliberate reviews while quickly internalizing feedback on your own PRs to learn team standards. • Become a reliable, independent contributor across several areas of the codebase, consistently leaving our code more consistent, clean, and robust than you found it. • Help our team improve, including by improving our internal tooling and sharing ideas and learnings with other members of the team. • Take a vacation to recharge. We do our best work when we’re happy and well-rested. • Identify areas of growth as a professional software engineer and have developed them through owned projects while evolving with the changing software landscape. • Lead core initiatives across our products, as part of a surprisingly small team serving a surprisingly large number of users. • Help coach and develop the next generation of promising software engineers. • Help us demonstrate to the world the value of thoughtful humans guiding engineering, regardless of how good AI tools become at aiding our work.

🎯 Requirements

• Something you’ve made that you’re really proud of (an app, a website, a physical project, even a Desmos graph). • How you’ve approached design decisions in a project you contributed to (whether that’s something you’ve built alone or on a team), including alternatives and trade-offs you made. • The tech stack you currently build with and where you hope to grow your skills. • Your favorite mathematical topic.

🏖️ Benefits

• Competitive compensation. Every full-time member of the team receives generous stock and salary compensation as well as a 401(k) match of up to 5% of annual salary. • Great benefits. We offer medical, vision, dental, short-term disability, long-term disability, and life insurance. We also offer Medical and Dependent Care FSAs, at least 22 full-company holidays, a company donation match, and more! • Flexible hours. We’re a fully remote team, and everyone sets their own hours. • Work-life balance. We value results over hours and sustainable, long-term success over short-term wins. • Ownership and influence. As a member of a small team with few external stakeholders, each person here plays a major role in defining our policies, goals, culture, and benefits.
