Through building impactful partnerships and programs, NewGlobe ensures that all children have access to an education that will develop their full potential and create a foundation for growth and prosperity.
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.

NewGlobe works within state and national curriculum and syllabi, ensuring all children are empowered to learn their own history, and master local content, while being globally competitive in mathematics and languages. The science of behavior change and the science of learning is at the foundation of all programming.
NewGlobe works with urgency because youth quickly becomes adulthood and relentlessly because improvement requires continuous problem-solving. NewGlobe is honored to serve and to help rebuild trust in public systems.
NewGlobe’s work is all encompassing and will challenge you to use your full mind, and heart, each day. We need bright minds who want to be part of building a new globe -- a more equitable globe -- to join us.
Technology Group
Technology plays a critical role enabling us to provide transformative education at massive scale in highly resource constrained environments. This is one of the key elements that gives us the ability to deliver radically impactful programmes, creating brighter futures for a generation of children across the world each day. Technology spans several key functions, including product management, business intelligence, software development and IT operations.
Working with us, passionate technologists have a chance to directly change the world. No kidding.
Software Development Department
The software development department handles all aspects of delivery related to our custom software applications and services - everything that it takes to turn an idea into working software and delivering value to our users. The department is structured into cross-functional, self-organizing teams that work together on projects, short and long, alongside product designers and key business stakeholders.
About The Role
We are looking for a full time Lead Full-Stack Engineer to head up one of our cross-functional software development teams, which builds the software that powers and improves our competitive advantage. In addition to being technically excellent and an individual contributor, a Team Lead is responsible for the end-to-end delivery of their project (looking across all disciplines and technology stacks) and for ensuring that their team is following agreed norms and processes.
This person should be familiar with design and implementation issues specific to a data driven, highly scalable environments and be able to handle such issues with flexibility and ingenuity. The ideal candidate will have a strong customer focus, a proven track record of delivering high-quality products in a continuous delivery environment, and an appreciation for clean and simple code.
What You Will Do
• Design, implement, and support new products and features, including overseeing the technical design and architecture of projects
• Collaborate with project sponsors and product designers to elaborate requirements and facilitate trade-offs that maximize value
• Analyze and improve the overall software architecture, with a focus on maintainability and scalability
• Mentor and develop members of the team, from daily interactions to broader professional development goals
What You Should Have
• A BA/BS in Computer Science or a related technical field
• 7+ years of enterprise software development experience
• 2+ years of experience leading engineering teams
• Comfort recommending and advocating for enterprise architectural best practices for highly-available, scalable, and reliable implementations; but also the experience to take on technical debt where appropriate
• Enterprise-level experience with continuous delivery practices and tools
• Advocacy of test-driven development (TDD) and/or behavior driven development (BDD)
• Experience with pair-programming and other XP practices a plus
• Expertise in several of the following areas (and interested in learning about the rest):
• Web services and API design, especially in the Microsoft dotnet ecosystem
• Android applications, especially “offline-first”
• JavaScript Web Applications, especially Progressive Web Applications
• Data engineering - data pipelines that cleanse, classify, and aggregate data sets
• Highly scalable architectures (e.g. CQRS, Event Sourcing, queues, circuit breakers, etc.)
• Monitoring in all its forms - error monitoring, synthetic monitoring, performance monitoring, user monitoring, etc.
• Security and identity management - OAuth, penetration testing, software supply chain
• Cloud and Hybrid deployment models
• Databases and ORMs - esp. MS SQL Server/T-SQL (and EF, Dapper, etc.); but also other forms of persistence.
• Experience in a lean delivery environment and understand not only the mechanics, but also the underlying motivations
• NewGlobe uses primarily .NET (server-side), Vue.JS (web apps) and Kotlin (Android native), so experience in these toolchains is preferable; however, NewGlobe also values developers with diverse experience, so serious exposure to other languages and ecosystems (e.g. NodeJS, Ruby, functional languages, NoSQL DBs) is a bonus
• Ability to function well in a fast-paced, informal environment where constant change is the norm and the bar for quality is set high
• Interest in open source projects – familiarity with OSS projects is a plus; contributions to open source projects is a big plus
You’re also
• A detailed doer – You have a track record of getting things done. You’re organised and responsive. You take ownership of every idea you touch and execute it to a fine level of detail, setting targets, engaging others, and doing whatever it takes to get the job done. You can multi-task dozens of such projects at once and never lose sight of the details. Likely, you have some experience in a start-up or other rapid-growth company.
• A networking mastermind – You excel at meeting new people and turning them into advocates. You communicate in a clear, conscientious, and effective way in both written and oral speech. You can influence strangers in the course of a single conversation. Allies and colleagues will go to bat for your ideas. You have an existing network from prior experience in the country, preferably in the regulatory, education, or business sectors.
• A creative problem-solver – Growing any business from scratch comes with massive and constant challenges. On top of that, NewGlobe works in often fragile, sometimes volatile low-resource communities and with complex government systems. You need to be flexible and ready to get everything done effectively, quickly, and affordably with the materials at hand.
• A relentless advocate –The children we serve and teachers we empower never leave your mind. You know them, get them, have shared a meal with them (or would be happy to in the future). You would never shrink back from shaking a parent’s hand or picking up a crying child, no matter what the person was wearing or looked like. Every decision you make considers their benefit, experience, and value.
• A malleable learner –You believe you can always do better. You welcome constructive criticism and provide it freely to others. You know you only get better tomorrow when others point out where you’ve missed things or failed today.
• A curious investigator – You ask why a lot. You don’t just take what you see and accept it. You wonder why it is that way, and are aware that the world we see is created by human choices and actions – and it could be different. You wonder, and see the world as wonderful even when you want to change a part of it that is unjust
