About the role
We’re looking for a Software Engineer to join our Product team in Spain and help us build reliable experiences for teachers and students. We’re looking for someone who enjoys solving real user problems, shows initiative, and is motivated to learn and grow in a highly collaborative environment.
In this role, you’ll contribute across the stack, partnering closely with Product, Design, and Engineering to dig into problems, shape solutions, build features, and improve the experience of our users. You’ll bring your own perspective, question assumptions, and take ownership from problem discovery through implementation, helping drive better technical and product decisions along the way. You’ll also continuously learn by taking on problems of increasing complexity over time, including the possibility of leading projects with technical complexity, product complexity, or both.
Technically speaking, we use React and Redux for our frontend and Node and Express applying DDD and hexagonal architecture in the backend. We use MongoDB for our database and are fully hosted on AWS which we also use to store, encode and stream our own pool of videos. Our Engineering team also has access to Claude Code as part of a modern development environment that supports learning, experimentation, and day-to-day work. We work with testing, trunk based development, CI/CD, and we follow engineering best practices without compromising on code quality or reliability. About our team We’re a deeply product-focused team. Engineers at Edpuzzle are expected to think beyond implementation: understanding the user problem, challenging assumptions, making well-reasoned trade-offs, and contributing to better decisions that elevate the experience for our users.
We work in cross-functional, rotational teams, fostering close partnerships between Engineering, Product, Infrastructure, and other key areas such as Design, Data, QA, and Security. This gives Engineers broad exposure across our systems and creates opportunities to develop both technical depth and strong product judgment over time.
At our core is an environment where every voice is heard and valued, and where each team member plays a role in shaping project strategies, not just execution. We value proactiveness and curiosity to make sense of the bigger picture. Engineers are not just encouraged but expected to think critically, form their own opinions, use modern tools with clear judgment, and propose solutions. We’ve built a culture where ideas are shared openly and assumptions are challenged in service of building better experiences for our users.

- About the job
- Work closely with Product and Engineering to understand user needs, explore solutions, and contribute to product and technical discussions with your own perspective.
Take ownership of the problems you work on by understanding why they matter to users, doing your own research, proposing solutions, and driving implementation with support from teammates when needed.
Collaborate closely with cross-functional teammates to keep projects moving with efficiency and focus, while also delivering the best possible outcome on time.
Develop pixel perfect designs in partnership with the Design team.
Build simple, clean, testable, and reliable code across the stack.
Continuously learn how different parts of Edpuzzle’s software work, why they were built that way, how they interact, where they can be refined, and how to use the tools available to you to keep growing.
Make effective use of the tools available to you, including AI where appropriate, to build context faster, strengthen your work, and move problems forward, while maintaining solid judgment and high standards.
Troubleshoot, debug and upgrade software.
Write technical documentation that gives others clarity on decisions, systems, and implementation details.
- Contribute wherever needed to help the team deliver meaningful outcomes.
- About you
- You have 3 to 5 years of professional experience developing products with real users, and you've owned features on both the frontend and the backend.
You write well-tested JavaScript/TypeScript code and build complex interactive UIs in React and backend systems in Node.js.
You are product-oriented: you start from the user's problem and you treat technology as a means to that end, never the goal.
You use AI to improve your work while remaining fully accountable for the quality and reasoning behind the final output.
You work with a strong sense of autonomy and adapt quickly when priorities change. You’ll challenge an idea, including your own, when you think there’s a better way.
You are an avid learner who turns curiosity into action and are never comfortable leaving a knowledge gap open.
You explain technical decisions clearly, to engineers and non-engineers alike. You're fluent in Spanish and have professional working English.
- You live in Spain and have a valid work permit.
- Bonus skills
- Startup or scaleup environments and cross-functional teams
Experience navigating ambiguous environments and contributing beyond pure implementation
High-traffic systems
Redux for client state management
Express.js and MongoDB
Complex backend architectures such as Hexagonal Architecture and Domain Driven Design (DDD)
