Senior Product Engineer (React Native)
We're looking for a Product Engineer to join our New User Acquisition team and build amazing onboarding experiences for kids and caregivers ✨
Lingokids' mission is to help 100 million families worldwide raise amazing kids through playlearning™.
Through play and interactive technology, Lingokids delivers premium, modern learning through educational subjects and life skills so kids can thrive as confident, conscious, resilient, lifelong learners — ready for school and today’s ever-changing world.
To help us on this mission, we’re looking for a Senior Product Engineer to join the Product Engineering team.
At Lingokids, we encourage candidates of all different backgrounds to apply. We actively seek to hire individuals with different perspectives, and we are eager to continue diversifying our company’s culture. We strive to be an inclusive, supportive place where you can do the best work of your career.
Are you ready for Playlearning™?
At Lingokids, being a Product Engineer means being responsible for the entire lifecycle of an initiative in our product, from initial conceptualisation to deployment and beyond. Our Product Engineers have a deep understanding of both technical intricacies and user needs and, collaborate closely with Designers, other Product Engineers, and stakeholders.
This role is part of the Product Engineering team, which consists of around 25 people working in multidisciplinary teams. More specifically, you will work in the New User Monetization team (we also refer to them as our Revolutionary Ravens). The team focuses on building amazing onboarding experiences for our brand-new users to stay with us.
Responsibilities
- Design, build and maintain features focused on children and caregivers. You’ll own large features end-to-end, from scoping and tech design to instrumentation/monitoring, deployment, delivery to users, and maintenance.
- Work with the rest of the squad by bringing new fresh ideas on how we could improve the process and the infrastructure of the app.
- Engage in close collaboration with UX and Designers to translate design concepts into functional code, enhancing our design system components in the process.
- Have full ownership of the tasks and communicate with the team towards finishing the work.
- Feed back constructively on others through design, code, and peer reviews; as well as accepting feedback graciously and action as necessary.
Desired experience
- Experience with React, React Native, or other modern Javascript application frameworks.
- Feel comfortable working with Javascript/ES6.
- Relentless in finding simple, elegant solutions to complex problems.
- Understanding of how apps communicate with APIs.
- Attention to detail and provide solid and scalable solutions to improve the code base.
- Ability to clearly articulate the business impact of your work to non-technical stakeholders.
- A self-driven approach to learning new technologies and moving features forward.
English is a must. We are a multicultural team, and we are providing a service in English so, we don't care about certificates, but we expect you to be able to communicate fluently.
You should feel equally comfortable communicating in long-form writing. We have become a fully remote company so, we believe that being articulate in both spoken and written long-form asynchronous communication is key to working efficiently together.

Our culture
Playworking:

Creative leadership:
Lingokids members work in interdisciplinary teams with a long-term goal designed to feel like a mini-startup where everyone must perform creative leadership. All members are responsible for proposing solutions to problems, and nobody is expected to come up with all the ideas while the rest are just developing them.
We know nothing:
At Lingokids we are humble and one of our mottos is “I know nothing”. But knowing is our passion so we are always finding creative ways to increase our wisdom. That continuous race for perfecting our knowledge brought us where we are. That and that we are fast getting that knowledge.
About Lingokids
We’re the playlearning™ app for more than 50 million families worldwide.
By learning through play, your child will develop skills like creativity, collaboration, critical thinking, and communication.
