NewGlobe leverages more than a decade of educational experience and proven impact in integrated school management, teacher professional development, instructional design innovation, technological system support, child-centered classroom practice, and parent engagement -- all grounded in learning science -- to ensure each teacher is empowered to engage children in transformational learning, and all children have the opportunity to develop to their full potential. Every day, NewGlobe supports governments to solve what were once seen as intractable problems, and by doing so, ensures this generation will be able to grow up to lead more fulfilled lives, while simultaneously building economic prosperity for themselves, their communities, and the globe.

Your team will have front-end developers, full-stack developers, and technically minded QAs to deliver new functionality to existing apps and to build our next generation of web applications, as part of our ever expanding portfolio. And by “next generation of web applications”, we mean rigorously architected single-page web applications and progressive web-applications that consume microservices and treat testing and continuous delivery as first-class citizens.

Here, we excel in innovative problem-solving and harness the power of data to revolutionize education. Committed to scaling our impact, we prioritize inclusivity and design solutions that empower learners worldwide.

What You Will Do
- Gather requirements, build, test, and ship web apps, both new and existing

- Engage on all dimensions of the app, from UI and UX, to business logic, to storage and networking
- Ensure the overall quality of the product being delivered meets our standards for scalability and maintainability. You will be comfortable not only in your primary functional area, but also able to feedback and support across all aspects of delivery
- Focus on continuous improvement, pushing themselves and the team to adopt new approaches and technologies, ensuring that we stay on top of emerging standards
- Communicate project status to key stakeholders.
- Work with product designers to flesh out design concepts and build interactive prototypes
- Work as part of a cross-functional delivery team to deliver world-class user experiences in challenging network environments - think lots of need for offline-first
- Write lots and lots of JavaScript. Or TypeScript. But probably not CoffeeScript or Dart. Sorry
- Contribute to and lead decisions about the right frameworks and libraries to use
- Craft all the appropriate CSS (well, SASS or LESS, of course), knowing that creating maintainable stylesheets means more than good class names (but that, too)
- Add a bit of sizzle and spice to the user experience… We love making sure it all renders pixels perfect!
- Implement appropriate web app build tooling, meaning live servers for development, minification and obfuscation for production… you get the idea
- Don’t forget about writing tests. You will definitely be writing automated tests
- 3+ years of experience developing enterprise-scale Single-Page Applications (SPAs) and Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, JSON, etc.
- Knowledge of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC).
- Significant professional experience with at least one modern JavaScript framework (AngularJS, Ember, React, Vue.js, etc.) — ideally two or three — and well-informed opinions about the strengths and weaknesses of each.
- User-centric thinking to prioritize performance, accessibility, and usability, ensuring the highest quality end product.
- A belief that Agile methodologies and UI development can coexist effectively.
- A strong belief in the importance of automated unit, integration, and functional tests for both web apps and APIs.
- Proficient with Version Control Systems such as Git (branching, pull requests, merges) and platforms like Azure DevOps Repos, GitHub, or GitLab.
- Hands-on experience with formal pair programming and other XP (Extreme Programming) practices is a major plus.
- Experience running projects using a formal delivery methodology (beyond just “we do Agile”); familiarity with more than one and the ability to articulate their relative strengths and weaknesses is a major plus.
- Solid understanding of RESTful APIs and the confidence to challenge server-side developers to build them to meet front-end needs.
- A proactive and confident communicator, comfortable representing projects in front of stakeholders at all levels, including senior leadership.
- Strong ability to prioritize and manage multiple tasks simultaneously.
- A proactive mindset and comfort working independently without constant supervision.
- Flexibility to adapt and respond to the evolving needs of the business.
- Figma or other design tools
- Testing in production (feature flags/toggles , A/B testing .. etc.)
- CI/CD basics
- Web performance optimization (lighthouse, Core Web vitals
