Take a seat on our rocket ship and join us on our mission to change education around the world. We're a rapidly growing SaaS company and are looking for a Senior Software Engineer (willing to learn Elixir) to join our Product Engineering team.
Who we are?
Xplor and QK Technologies have recently joined forces to become an international team of over 150 people hailing from offices in Melbourne, Brisbane and London. Being part of TSG, we all share the passion for education and innovative technology and want to support those who make it great.
Our product suite is changing education by helping childcare services and educators easily manage all aspects of their operations, as well as by connecting parents with their children's well-being and growth.
Tech Stack
Our primary stack is Elixir, TypeScript + React, and PostgreSQL. Most of our engineers had little or no Elixir experience when they joined. Many of us had never even done any functional programming. Starting from scratch in a new language is still very fresh in our minds since it’s something we’ve all been through. We’ve supported our people through that process many times and we know that if someone wants to learn Elixir, we can teach it, fast. If you’ve ever thought about making the leap to a new stack, Xplor can take you from Hello World to shipping features in no time.
What will I be doing as a Senior Software Engineer?

You’ll be joining the Playground team, focused on providing tools to aid educators in early years learning. As a Senior Software Engineer your job will be to provide the guidance and expertise needed to solve complex technical problems. The right person for this role:
