  • Investigate runtime anomalies: Triage complex backend system issues by analyzing underlying data flows and systemic impacts.
  • Execute root-cause analysis: Perform deep-dive evaluations on production failures and compile post-incident reports.
  • Query relational databases: Write custom SQL Server scripts from scratch to extract, validate, and isolate data errors.
  • Deconstruct error logs: Review application and server logs to track down persistent bugs or data pipeline failures.

Deployment & Configuration Control

  • Manage release windows: Oversee system deployments and operational maintenance windows alongside DevOps and SRE teams.
  • Enforce quality control: Partner directly with QA engineers throughout the development lifecycle to maintain execution standards.
  • Optimize knowledge bases: Structure Confluence repositories to ensure reference materials are searchable and accurate.

Job Requirements:

  • Education: Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Engineering, Information Systems, or a related technology-focused discipline.

  • AI Tooling Efficiency: Hands-on proficiency using AI productivity tools (such as GitHub Copilot, Claude, or automated project management workflows) to accelerate technical writing and delivery metrics.
  • EdTech Interoperability: Direct experience configuring, testing, or launching integrations utilizing the QTI framework.
  • Domain curiosity: Strong desire to get hands dirty learning the multilayered mechanics of complex educational software applications.
  • Incident management: Prior experience working in high-pressure production support, site reliability, or incident management environments.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
