Full Job Description
Senior Application Developer

We are looking for a Senior Application Developer who brings demonstrated passion, knowledge, and curiosity about every aspect of cross-platform application development. You care deeply about the craft - from the first frame a student sees to the last interaction before they close the app.

What You'll Do

Depending on your strengths and our needs, you'll focus in one of the following areas - or grow across all three:
  • Tools Engineering: Extend the Godot editor into a production-grade tool that empowers our development team to ship a world-changing digital learning experience.
  • Desktop App Development: Own and deliver a best-in-class learning experience on desktop platforms, from boot to close.
  • Mobile App Development: Build and refine our learning experience on tablets and other mobile platforms, ensuring performance, responsiveness, and delight at every interaction.

Across all tracks, you will:
  • Own the end-to-end user experience from app launch to close, ensuring every interaction is fast, intuitive, and mission-aligned.
  • Integrate with our cloud services including authentication, telemetry, and progression tracking.
  • Collaborate closely with UX/UI designers to deliver polished, learner-centered experiences.


What We're Looking For
  • Strong familiarity with at least one mainstream native UI framework (SwiftUI, Qt, WPF, or similar)
  • Solid understanding of UI framework subsystems - layout, rendering, event-routing, localization, animation, and related systems
  • Familiarity with multiple UI architecture paradigms is a plus
  • Ability to integrate applications with online services including authentication, telemetry, and progression tracking
  • Comfortable self-serving on design and art tasks when a designer isn't in the room
