Studocu was founded on the principle that equal access to study notes reduces inequality between students. Today, we make it easy for more than 45+ million students to share notes every month and use cutting-edge AI learning tools (like Quizzes, AI Chat, and Ask-AI) to help them ace their study goals. The product was a rocket ship from day one and has shown strong product-market fit on every continent with enviable YoY growth, making us a key player in the exploding EdTech space.

Do you want to work on a platform that makes study materials accessible for 45+ million students? We are expanding our 10 SCRUM teams (70+ back-end, full-stack, and front-end developers) and are looking for a talented new colleague who is a wizard with PHP and has experience with modern Laravel. You will be working with our designers and front-end developers to enable our users all over the world and let them have the best possible experience on our platform. We are keen to join hands with someone whose hunger for technology is only matched by a motivation to solve difficult problems fast, efficiently, and with scalability in mind.

We are currently hiring for different tech teams at Studocu who own parts of our application like:

• Monetisation - which increases revenue by growing our subscriber base and runs monetisation experiments to keep improving our model and growth loop’s dynamics. It's also responsible for processing payments from 194 countries using 28 payment methods. Which we believe is quite cool.
• Study Space - which mission is to build a platform, leveraging AI, where students can prepare for their exams more efficiently with everything they need in just one place so that they prefer to study within Studocu instead of suing multiple different apps.
• ...and others!

• Flexible setup. Your own workspace including the hardware of your choosing (Mac or Linux). We work in a hybrid mode where we want to see everybody at least twice a week in the office.
