About Oboe

Oboe's goal is simple: teach one billion people one trillion things. We'll do that by building the world's first completely generalized AI-powered learning platform. Today, so much of our focus is spent on making machines smarter. At Oboe, we believe it’s time for machines to make humans smarter.

We’re a small but mighty team made up of builders who love learning, being challenged, and changing the world. If that kind of job appeals to you, we should talk.

The Role

We’re looking for a Full-Stack Engineer to work across Oboe’s technology stack, from our backend pipelines that leverage AI to generate world-class content, all the way to the interfaces that our users use to engage with that content on the web.

We’re a team of generalists, so this job will have you learning every part of the systems and features that bring Oboe to life. This is a highly hands-on role where you’ll have tremendous impact, ship real features to real users, iterate quickly, and learn a ton.

What You’ll Do

  • Build core user-facing features (APIs and frontend).

  • Build and scale backend systems and pipelines that generate, store, and serve AI-powered learning formats.

  • Own features end-to-end.

  • Work with the team to translate ideas, prototypes, and insights into production-ready experiences.

  • Work with the team to design key onboarding flows, activation moments, and free-to-paid conversion pathways.

  • Write clean, reliable, maintainable code (while still shipping quickly).

  • Improve performance, reliability, and stability as usage grows.

  • Help shape our engineering culture, technical standards, and best practices.

  • Jump into new challenges with energy, curiosity, and flexibility — startup-style.

You’ll Thrive in This Role If You Have… (Must Haves)

  • 5+ years of experience as a full-stack engineer.

  • Ability to break down ambiguous problems into simple, shippable steps.

  • Curiosity and willingness to dive into unfamiliar tech or product areas as needed.

  • A love for learning new things.

  • Comfort in a fast-moving startup with evolving processes and plenty of ambiguity.

  • No ego.

Nice to Haves

  • Experience with AI, LLMs, and pipelines of any kind.

  • Experience working at rapidly scaling companies.

  • Experience with our tech stack (Node, Typescript, React, AWS, MySQL).

  • Experience in a fast-moving startup with evolving processes and changing requirements.
