Senior Software Engineer / Ed-Tech / React Full-Stack / NYC

I'm working with a seed funded early stage startup in the ed-tech space; a vertical SaaS platform acting as a scholarship award platform utilized by schools and prospective students. The platform aims to simplify how students find and get scholarships, and how faculty/admin can allocate unspent resources toward this.

They're currently live in 13 schools, with multiple large scale contracts set up. They just closed $2.5M in funding and have plenty of runway. They're looking for a full-stack engineer who has experience in both early stage startups, and scaling environments. This role is hybrid with an on-site focus. Ideally 3-4 days in office in the financial district.
