Original posting

Kodable (http://www.kodable.com) - Full time, Mountain View, CA What could be better than impacting the lives of millions of kids? Kodable teaches kids the fundamentals of programming starting before they can read. Used by over a million kids around the world, Kodable is designed to encourage everyone to learn programming. Over 50% of Kodable users are girls, and it has been used in over 100 countries. We're a team that knows how to work smart, have fun, and get results. We're passionate about empowering people with great educational tools and 21st Century skills. We’re looking to hire our first full-stack engineers (including a CTO) to bring Kodable to more platforms and build Kodable 2. You will be given the freedom to shape the future of programming education for the entire world! We have an iOS app written in Objective-C with a backend in Parse, and a web reporting system written in Ruby and Sinatra. Experience with these languages in a plus, but we’re mostly looking for experience. The position includes a lot of responsibility, you’ll make key architectural decisions for the future of our codebase, so you should have experience working on a production application in use by 100k+ users. We also offer generous equity - we consider our first hire to be nothing more than a late co-founder, and feel you should be compensated accordingly :) If you’re interested, email jon@kodable.com or to learn more visit http://www.kodable.com/jobs
