Senior Full-Stack Engineer
What is Superfluent?
Superfluent is solving a massive hole in the language learning market: enabling Intermediate & Advanced learners to reach conversational fluency. While every other app is focused on Beginners learning basic vocab, we get people speaking in real-world scenarios with instant feedback and fluency metrics to track their progress.
For all the details about why you should care about a language learning company not named Duolingo, read our deep dive here:
Superfluent is remote-first, mission-driven, and venture-backed. Our team is small, our ambition is enormous. We offer competitive compensation & benefits, meaningful equity, and ultimate autonomy. Come join us!
The Opportunity
Over the past year, we've found product-market fit with hundreds of daily signups and great retention, all based on organic word of mouth.
We have a huge roadmap ahead as well as tons of users sharing their ideas & feedback every single day. We also have two fantastic designers working with us to help craft a beautiful product and brand.
Our CEO (Sam) has written all the code so far, but now we're ready to make our first tech hire and step on the gas. So we're looking for a Senior Full-Stack Engineer to help us move even faster.
The frontend is an Expo/React Native app written in Typescript. The Node.js backend uses GraphQL + Express and is written in Typescript on AWS infrastructure with MongoDB. And no surprise, we use a ton of LLMs to power the language learning itself as well as speeding up our own productivity.
The title & package are flexible -- we want to meet you and find the right fit.
What Gets Us Excited
We don't have rigid criteria around job titles or years of experience. However, we're especially excited if you have a:
- Full-stack Background: You've worked across the stack, shipping great features on hobby projects or in production. Even better if you have React Native experience too
- AI-First Mindset: You've played with the latest models and like to stay up to date. You know how to get the most out of them to create magical experiences for users
- Eye For Design: While our designers can handle the pixel pushing in Figma, executing a beautiful brand and product UX is critical to our success
- Personal Connection: Maybe you've previously or are currently living abroad, have in-laws that speak another language, learned English as a second language, are crushing a 500-day Duolingo streak, etc
That being said, none of these are hard requirements nor do you need to check all these boxes…
How to Apply
Send us an email to jobs@superfluent.com with your resume (and/or LinkedIn/GitHub profile) and a brief description of why you're genuinely interested in this role at Superfluent.
That could manifest as a quick Loom video, some crazy growth/product idea you had to share after trying out the app, or whatever you think best highlights why you're excited about this and are such a great fit.
We can't wait to hear from you!
