Parallel is seeking an enthusiastic senior web developer who is excited to direct their skills towards our mission of increasing the number and diversity of excellent young mathematicians.
Founded by bestselling science writer Simon Simon MBE, Parallel is a small but ambitious charitable initiative. We support bright and keen students to develop their mathematical curiosity and problem solving skills beyond the curriculum. This includes puzzle sheets, large interactive webinars, and a tutoring programme (Parallel Academy) which provides small-group tutorials to over 600 state school secondary school students. Our tutorial programme is completely free for the first year, and heavily subsidised thereafter, but cost will never be a barrier to participation.
Our online plaform:
All of these initiatives are managed through our online platform which:
- Uses Remix, Lambda & GraphQL AppSync
- Is a bespoke learning management system for thousands of 10-17 year old students, and includes functionality such as interactive webinars and personalised maths tutorials with quizzes, tests, reports & data dashboards.
- Has distinct user experiences for students, school teachers, tutors and project administrators.
This role:
So far, the Parallel platform has been developed and maintained by a single volunteer developer. As we look to expand the project to reach many thousands more students each year, we are now looking for additional support to help maintain the platform, attend to daily issues and support with new feature development.
The Parallel platform is built with the following technologies:
-
Frontend: React, Typescript
-
Backend: Node.js, GraphQL (AWS Appsync)
-
Infrastructure: AWS (Lambda, AppSync, Dynamodb), Firebase
Experience with all of these technologies is desired but not critical. You will be joining a very small team, however, so the ability to work, troubleshoot, & learn independently is crucial.
We expect that this role will require 20 hours per month, with some variation from one week to the next. Our success to date has relied upon the rapid responsiveness of our lead developer and, working under his supervision, we require the same from this role.
To express your interest, please email us your CV and a short cover letter (and anything else you think might be useful).
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
