Minerva Project | Software Engineer, UX Designer | Remote or San Francisco, CA | Full-Time Come help build the Minerva Forum: push the boundaries of WebRTC and dynamic real time web applications in order to create a compelling education environment. You can see a video of Forum at work: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gk5iiXqh7Tg To learn more about who we are, our engineering culture, and whether this is the right place for you, read our Key Values profile: https://www.keyvalues.com/minerva Work on challenging technology problems with a small, sharp, high-EQ team. Our engineering team is about 20 folks - 60% in SF, 30% remote in the US and 10% remote in Europe. Our tech stack is mostly Python/Django/DRF, React/Redux, and Backbone/Marionette. Our real time collaboration services are a combination of websockets, ShareDB, and WebRTC. We deploy to AWS - migrating from OpsWorks (Chef) to EKS (Kubernetes). By integrating advanced classroom technology with research-backed pedagogy and curriculum, Minerva enables institutions of all types and sizes to improve learning outcomes for students around the world. Minerva also formed an alliance with Keck Graduate Institute (KGI) to establish the Minerva Schools at KGI in 2013, a WASC-accredited, four-year, undergraduate institution that provides an exceptional and accessible education along with an immersive global student experience.
