Hi, I do not see what tech stack you are looking for on the link.


Hi,

We're a serverless JS web/mobile app built with react/node.

That said, we welcome people from backgrounds with different stacks.

Aula Education | REMOTE | Nodejs / React | Fulltime

Aula is a remote first EdTech company. We're currently 50 people working from 15+ countries all over the world. Together, we're fixing education by helping educators engage their students through our conversational platform Aula.

Aula is built in react/redux, microservices in nodejs and draftjs for our in-house built editor. Instances are hosted on AWS and we use MongoDB for our database. We also have a react-native mobile app. We're slowly transitioning to serverless, to service the thousands of institutions waiting for change.

Together, we strive to build an organisation where people from diverse backgrounds can thrive.

Our interview process is mostly a-sync over Slack, where you'll be pairing with one of our full-stack engineers.

We hope to see you on the other side, see our open roles here: http://bit.ly/WeAreAula

Hey! I'm Martí and I've been working at Aula for a total of over 2 years now as a software engineer. I joined Aula as an intern in my first week of university and since then I've loved every single minute of being part of such an amazing group of talented and friendly individuals. If you're looking for an exciting and fulfilling job with a learning and collaborating atmosphere, Aula is the right place for you!


Hey, I'm Oliver, CTO at Aula.

If you're curious to hear more about our tech stack and the infrastructure I've described in this article http://bit.ly/AulaTechStack, let me know. If you're passionate about node, react and the interesting challenges of a micro-service architecture, do not hesitate to get in touch!


Hey everyone,

I’m Rune and I’m COO at Aula.

We’re pretty focused on community in digital space. That’s what our product does and it’s how we make remote work work.

I just wanted to share that most applicants leave the interview process with new friends - have a look from the candidate slack group: https://cl.ly/ef2b105e6159

Let me know if you have any questions.


Hi Rune,

Very interesting product I must say.

For the product management role, do you need relevant experience with consumer product companies. How about small scale startup experience in edTech as founder/product guy?

Also, are you open to fully remote folks?

-Manish


Manish,

Thanks for reaching out :-)

We are definitely open to fully remote folks!

We are mostly looking for people with experience in the 'craft' of product management at the moment - or for people who understand educators and their workflows very well.

However, if you send across your LinkedIn to rune@aula.education I can quickly check in with Adrian, our CPO, to see if he thinks its worth starting a conversation.

Does that make sense?

Rune


Hey everyone! I'm Brice, full-stack engineer at Aula since April!

I must say it's quite an exciting company to work with and I'd be glad to answer any question you might have :-)


There is a great Mate talk at the society of psychedelics where he gets a question from a father about how to fix y or z for his daughter. Mate's answer is always: do your own healing work, fix yourself -- such a great man.


> do your own healing work, fix yourself

I've done that with my own personal issues, but I'm not sure it's the best approach for everyone and all the issues.

I'm close to 40 and only now I've been able to give a technical name to a personal problem that has been fuzzy for decades. I'm sure a trained professional would have seen that and maybe my healing would have taken a couple of years instead of close to 20 years.


I think his point is to focus on fixing yourself, rather than trying to fix others. He’s not suggesting that you avoid getting help from professionals to do so.


Oh right. Sorry I missed that.
