What’s the opportunity?
Udemy Business helps global companies stay competitive in the digital transformation of the workplace by offering fresh, personalized, and on-demand learning content. Our business offering leverages the marketplace catalogue of over 130,000 courses serving upward of 40M students. We are looking for a full-stack engineer to help us build out and scale up the best workplace learning experience in the industry.
As a Principal Engineer on the Enterprise Portfolio you will be working with multiple teams such as Account Management, License Management and Ecosystems as a technical lead to design, implement and maintain scalable solutions in areas such as license, user data and group management, GDPR, access management including SSO/SCIM and log-in/sign-up flows. These features are core to our Udemy Business offering and our goal is to achieve Enterprise Grade level of quality: a seamless experience at scale.
You will be innovating by introducing new technologies and managing their adoption and also setting standards and best practices for excellence in engineering. You will regularly mentor your fellow engineers because that is the best way to help the organization grow with higher quality.
How we work
Our teams have a high degree of autonomy to select the projects they work on. The teams collectively decide on key themes. Independent pods (teams) have the flexibility to make their own decisions and work autonomously. At the end of each month, teams present their complete or in-progress work to the wider portfolio.
While engineers collaborate closely with Product and Design, they also put forward and drive their own initiatives that align with their team’s long-term strategy and many times even Udemy on the whole. For a peek into what the rest of our engineering team at Udemy has been working on, read our engineering blog - https://medium.com/udemy-engineering.
Where we work
Over the last two years, we have let teams and individuals adapt and figure out how they can be most effective in a remote-first world. As offices in Dublin reopen, we have adopted a hybrid model where those needing the office are welcome to do so and teams are encouraged to align on what works best for them.
What’s expected of me?
Our team members have a wide variety of backgrounds and we strongly believe that diversity, open-mindedness, and good communication yield the best results. We work collaboratively and cross-functionally, taking ownership of doing the right things and getting them done. We are looking for someone to join the team who has demonstrable experience in some of the areas listed below and a desire to learn and master anything else that comes their way - we are a learning company after all!
