Senior Full-Stack Engineer (front-end heavy)

Location:

Remote, Ukraine

Our client is looking for a Senior Full Stack Engineer to join their team. This is a mission-critical domain where your code directly impacts how millions of users process payments and how the company generates revenue.

They're all about creating life-changing learning experiences. They help people discover the magic of the perfect tutor, craft a personalised learning journey, and stay motivated to keep growing. Their approach is human-led, tech-enabled - and it’s creating real impact.

They’ve just reached unicorn status with a $150M Series D, accelerating our vision to transform education through human-led, AI-enhanced learning. Today, 100,000+ tutors teach 90+ languages to learners in 180 countries - and they’re only getting started. As a category-defining company, they’re shaping what the future of learning looks like at global scale.

Role Focus: This is a Front-end heavy Full-stack role (approximately 70% Front-end and 30% Back-end). We are looking for a Front-end leader who is comfortable and willing to work across the stack to deliver end-to-end solutions.

Why is this role exciting?

We're hiring across three product teams - each with a distinct kind of impact:

PayOps (Monetization) - Own the checkout process, integrate new payment providers (SDKs), optimize fees and approval rates, and build a universal checkout component used across the company. Direct impact on revenue.
MarTech (Growth) - Build search pages, landing pages, and internal tools to manage millions of keywords and ads across multiple languages. Scale marketing operations with automation and AI.
Customer Care Product - Build internal tools for support (admin panel, Intercom) and the customer support journey inside the product. More architectural impact and a faster dev cycle.

What you’ll be doing

Design and deliver user-facing features using React, and TypeScript. You’ll own the entire journey, from shaping the UX, to implementation, to launch and validation through our A/B experimentation framework.
Develop backend features using Python/Django
Help us improve our codebase and workflows by applying practical best practices across frontend, backend, and mobile.
Collaborate with Design, Product, and Data to ideate, test, and validate user-facing experiences. Expect to dive into metrics, formulate hypotheses, analyze experiment results, and iterate quickly based on impact.
Strike the right balance between fast delivery and long-term stability, helping us ship impactful features without adding complexity.
Set a high bar for code quality and teamwork, and help others grow through collaboration, feedback, and good engineering practices.

What you need to succeed

Full-Stack Expertise: This role is primarily front-end focused, with approximately 70% of the work dedicated to front-end development and 30% to back-end development, requiring solid front-end expertise and well-rounded full-stack engineering skills.
Front-end Expertise: Strong expertise in React, Typescript, HTML5, and CSS.
Exposure to back-end tech: Expertise in Python/Java/Node.js/Ruby/Ruby on Rails/PHP/Golang.
Understanding Architectural Patterns: While deep backend expertise isn’t required, we do value familiarity with key architectural concepts and an ability to contribute to building reliable, efficient services that support user-facing features at scale.
Proactive Problem-Solving: You will be expected to face and solve challenges independently, both in the codebase and in our product initiatives.
Communication Skills: Good at working with others and communicating effectively in English at a B2 level or higher.
Ownership: You take responsibility for the quality and outcomes of your work, not just the code. You can make thoughtful technical decisions, contribute to improving our engineering practices, and support teammates through knowledge sharing and clear, constructive feedback.
