Teaching Strategies, LLC is a provider of a connected early childhood education ecosystem that combines research-based curricula, observation-based assessment, family engagement tools, professional development, and classroom/center management. Its platform (including products like The Creative Curriculum, GOLD/GOLDFinch, ReadyRosie, Tadpoles, and SmartTeach) serves Head Start programs, preschool through grade 3, family and private child care, and administrators to improve teacher effectiveness, retention, and child outcomes. The company delivers digital tools, content, data reporting, and services to support instruction, compliance, and program administration across thousands of classrooms and programs worldwide.

📋 Description

• Design, build, test, and maintain full stack product capabilities for family billing and related back-office workflows, including invoices, payments, billing accounts, center administration, billing solution management, reporting, and operational support tooling. • Develop backend services, APIs, task processing, and business logic primarily in Python, following existing application patterns for authorization, data access, transactions, deferred work, and service boundaries. • Build and improve web application experiences using the existing frontend stack, with attention to usability, performance, accessibility, and maintainable client-side code. • Make pragmatic, informed decisions about technical debt, refactoring, sequencing, and tradeoffs, especially in areas where billing accuracy, data integrity, and customer trust matter. • Partner with product, design, QA, customer-facing teams, and non-technical stakeholders to shape solutions that are technically sound and aligned with center and family needs. • Use AI-assisted development throughout the delivery lifecycle, including requirements analysis, technical planning, implementation, testing, debugging, code review preparation, documentation, and release readiness. • Apply CLI-based prompt and guided AI workflows, and use fully agentic flows where appropriate, while maintaining strong engineering judgment, security awareness, and accountability for the final output. • Help define, evaluate, and improve team practices for effective AI use, including where AI should accelerate work, where human review is essential, and how the team should share reusable prompts, workflows, and lessons learned. • Seek input from architecture, design, security, infrastructure, or specialized domain experts when needed, and incorporate that guidance into practical delivery plans. • Improve quality and reliability through automated tests, clear monitoring signals, careful rollout practices, and thoughtful handling of edge cases in billing and payment flows. • Build cross-product and cross-service technical knowledge so billing and back-office capabilities integrate cleanly with family engagement, center administration, account, admin, and reporting workflows. • Participate in team planning, estimation, incident response, production support, and continuous improvement of engineering practices.

🎯 Requirements

• 5-15+ years of professional software engineering experience, with demonstrated senior-level contributions to enterprise product or service areas. • Strong Python backend development experience, including API design, domain modeling, data validation, error handling and testing. • Experience building and maintaining web applications with JavaScript, HTML, CSS, and modern or legacy frontend frameworks; comfort working in an established frontend codebase. • Experience with billing, payments, invoicing, financial workflows, account administration, admin interfaces, reporting, or other high-integrity business systems is strongly preferred. • Experience with AI-assisted software development is preferred, including prompt-driven implementation, AI-supported testing/debugging, code review preparation, documentation workflows, or agentic development tools. • Interest in working in an AI-first engineering culture, with the curiosity and discipline to help the team evolve responsible, effective AI practices. • Practical understanding of relational or NoSQL data modeling, transactional behavior, asynchronous processing, queues, and idempotent workflow design. • Strong judgment around authorization, privacy, data integrity, and operational risk, especially for systems that handle family, child care center, or payment-related information. • Ability to reason through existing systems, identify the right integration points, and deliver improvements without unnecessary rewrites. • Demonstrated ability to collaborate, review code constructively, and raise the technical quality of a team. • Clear written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain technical tradeoffs to non-technical team members. • Strong bias for pragmatic execution: able to move work forward while keeping quality, maintainability, and customer impact in view. • Experience with Google Cloud Platform, App Engine and/or Flask is a plus. • Interest in early childhood education, child care center operations, and building software that supports teachers, administrators, and families.
