About CollegeVine

Canopy Education’s mission is to become the trusted source of lifelong guidance for the next generation, beginning with our flagship brand, CollegeVine. CollegeVine is a professional network (like LinkedIn for high schoolers!) comprised of three pillars - our student network, our recruiting partners, and our advisor marketplace. Students can easily navigate their entire college process from one place by building their first professional profile and connecting with universities. Our higher ed recruiting partners can change how their admissions offices build and recruit their classes by utilizing our platform’s revolutionary tools. Finally, our vibrant advisor marketplace can help families access more human-centric guidance by purchasing services on their own to helping school districts extend their guidance offices with on-demand counseling. We are a mission-driven startup that has no shortage of exciting business opportunities. So if solving a meaningful problem at a fast-growing and category-winning tech startup sounds like the next chapter of your career, then we can’t wait to meet you!

About The Role

CollegeVine is an AI company with a mission to bring lifelong guidance to the next generation. Facilitated by Sage, CollegeVineʼs AI advisor, the platform guides millions of students with personalized advice and actionable insights and empowers students to navigate their admissions journey proactively. Meanwhile, we are also transforming recruitment at colleges, universities, and other institutions. By leveraging advanced AI agents, proprietary data, and an extensive network of millions of high school students, CollegeVine enables these institutions to hyper-personalize their recruitment activities at scale and across multiple modalities. As CollegeVine scales, we’re looking to add talented engineers focused on solving real-world problems to help us build new products and scale our existing systems. In particular, you'll work directly with CollegeVine's leadership to build new AI agents and equip CollegeVine's existing agents with new capabilities. On CollegeVine’s engineering team, each engineer owns their work from idea into production while focusing on pulling business value as early in our development process as possible. This means small batches, CI/CD, deploying to production multiple times per-day, and rapid iteration as our ideas become reality for our customers. You’ll work on a product squad alongside designers, domain experts, and other engineers to solve the correct problems and deliver our guidance technology in a safe and reliable way. This role is fully remote with a strong preference for candidates located in the US or Canada.

What You’ll Do

• Use the latest tools and research in applied machine learning, LLMs, and AI agents to enhance our products and create delightful user experiences
• Own problems end-to-end, deliver results quickly, and be willing to pick up whatever knowledge you're missing to get the job done
• Partner with subject matter experts across the company including security, product, design, and customer success
• Focus on solving the problems at hand, not just writing code (although that’s typically how CollegeVine delivers solutions)
• Hone your craft by writing performant and maintainable code to extend the CollegeVine platform by working in (at least) Purescript and Ruby
  
  

What You’ll Bring

• 8+ years of software engineering experience (including internships)
• Proficiency with relational databases, modern IasS platforms, (Javascript || Ruby), and MVC web frameworks like Ruby on Rails. We also make heavy use of Purescript, so experience or an interest in learning typed-functional programming is necessary.
• You see yourself first and foremost as a pragmatic problem solver who just happens to write code
• Have a humble attitude, a love for learning, an eagerness to help your colleagues, and a desire to do whatever it takes to make the team succeed
• Care deeply about the end user experience and take pride in building products to solve customer needs
