At Epic, you'll join a collaborative and fast-paced global team passionate about building meaningful products that make a real impact on children's education and literacy.
About the RoleThe Senior Software Engineer, Full-Stack owns features end-to-end across Epic's web application -- Angular front-end, PHP/Symfony and Go services, MySQL -- and helps raise the engineering bar for the team. We hire for engineering strength over experience with any specific stack; strong engineers ramp quickly on ours.
This is a fully remote, India-based role, requiring close collaboration with a global engineering team that has members in the US, India and China.
What You'll Do- Design and ship features end-to-end across the full stack, from spec to production.
- Make sound decisions on architecture, data modeling, and API design; document trade-offs and align stakeholders.
- Drive code quality through code review and testing across front-end and back-end.
- Mentor junior and mid-level engineers through code review and pairing.
- Lead technical design reviews, RFCs, and architecture discussions.
- Use AI-assisted development tools to accelerate delivery, holding generated code to the same quality bar.
- Participate in production support -- investigations, post-mortems, and systemic fixes.
- 5+ years of professional software engineering, owning complex, cross-team work autonomously.
- Bachelor's degree or higher in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.
- Strong front-end engineering with a modern component framework (Angular a plus), plus solid TypeScript/JavaScript and UI fundamentals (HTML, CSS, accessibility).
- Strong back-end engineering in a modern server-side language (we use PHP and Go).
- Relational-database proficiency -- data modeling, performant queries, and indexing.
- Experience designing and operating production APIs (REST or gRPC).
- Comfort with Git, pull-request workflows, and CI/CD.
- Direct experience with our stack (Angular, PHP/Symfony, Go, MySQL) a plus.
- Experience leading a service migration between languages/runtimes (e.g., PHP to Go) in production.
- Familiarity with Tera for server-side templating.
- Experience with Docker and Kubernetes (GKE) at the application-developer level.
- Cloud-platform experience -- GCP preferred, AWS or Azure acceptable.
- Experience operating against an observability stack (New Relic, Datadog, or similar).
- Awareness of children's-privacy compliance frameworks (COPPA, FERPA).
