The posting

This is a chance to lead a world-class team of Software Engineers while also owning the tooling, systems, and performance visibility infrastructure that ensures we have the most efficient tools to deliver transformative solutions to schools worldwide.

We're a 125-person EdTech scale-up powering learning in 120+ countries, helping students and teachers thrive through an intelligent platform that combines rich, interactive pedagogy with smart AI and data.

Why join Kognity?

- Work on problems that matter – Your work directly influences the lives of teachers and students in over 100 countries. The scale is global, and the outcomes are tangible.

- High ownership, high expectations – You are trusted to take initiative, make decisions and drive outcomes. Responsibility comes early, accountability is real, and results matter.

- A fast-moving, high-performing team – You will work with smart, driven colleagues across the globe on complex problems. Standards and expectations are high, feedback is direct, and the pace is fast.

- Continuous growth is the baseline – Everyone is expected and supported to learn quickly, improve constantly and raise their own bar. If you enjoy responsibility, momentum and meaningful challenge, you will thrive here.

What you'll do:

- Manage and grow a team of 5 software engineers, owning their delivery, development, and day-to-day leadership.

- Own the engineering operating system: tooling, vendor lifecycle management, on-call staffing, and platform support, so engineers never lose time to broken processes or the wrong buy-versus-build decision.

- Own engineering performance visibility: build and maintain shared metrics infrastructure across investment tracking, shipping pace, and quality, surfacing signals before they become problems.

- Own investment bucket visibility and financial reporting for engineering, keeping data quality high and definitions consistent across the org.

- Push the boundaries of how we build: champion agentic and LLM-powered workflows across the engineering org, ensuring we're using the latest AI tooling to ship faster and stay ahead as a technology-led education company

What we're looking for:

- Proven experience leading a software engineering team, from delivery through to people development and performance management.

- A strong engineering background as a Software Engineer, with the credibility to earn the trust of Engineers quickly and the judgement to make good decisions when they don't have all the answers.

- The desire to also own shared tooling, systems, and infrastructure that the rest of the engineering function depends on.

- Experience leveraging agentic workflows to speed up decisions, execution, and output, with a genuine interest in pushing that further.

Why it works

3×

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.
