Senior Software Engineer Education RVPR

Positions posted by El Comeback are done on behalf of companies that we support in their search for candidates

Our client, Red Ventures, is looking for a Senior Software Engineer.

At Red Ventures, we believe in building transformative digital experiences that help people make lifes most important decisions. As a Senior Software Engineer in our EDU division, youll be a key contributor to the full product development lifecycle — designing, building, and maintaining user-facing features, backend services, and the tooling that connects them.

Youll work across the stack, with an emphasis on delivering intuitive, performant user experiences that are grounded in clean, maintainable architecture. This role is ideal for a builder who thrives on shipping impactful features, pairing with product and design, and continually leveling up their technical skills.

RV EDU is proudly headquartered in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and is dedicated to cultivating local talent and driving economic development on the island. While many of our roles are located in Puerto Rico, some are also located at RVs main campus south of Charlotte, NC, or are remote-based.

What You'll Do

Build and deliver full-stack features that drive real impact for students, using React, Next.js, TypeScript, Node.js, and AWS services.

Collaborate closely with design and product teams to develop user interfaces that are fast, accessible, and delightful.

Build backend APIs and data flows to support rich UI functionality and performance.

Own systems from design to deployment, including observability, testing, and performance.

Improve our front-end architecture, design system, and shared component libraries to support scale and velocity.

Work within a modern DevOps environment, contributing to infrastructure using tools like AWS CDK or Terraform where appropriate — without it being your main focus.

Participate in code reviews, design discussions, and mentoring opportunities to help raise the bar across the team.

Continuously learn, iterate, and bring new ideas to improve the developer and user experience.

What We're Looking For:

4–6 years of professional software engineering experience in modern web development.

Solid experience building full-stack applications, ideally using:

Frontend: React, Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS

Backend: Node.js, REST/GraphQL APIs

Cloud: AWS (Lambda, S3, DynamoDB, RDS, API Gateway)

Strong understanding of front-end architecture, state management, and performance optimization.

Familiarity with infrastructure concepts (e.g., IaC, CI/CD) and comfort working in cloud environments — you dont need to lead these efforts, but you shouldnt be blocked by them.

A strong product mindset and ability to collaborate cross-functionally.

Clear communication skills and a team-oriented approach.

Attention to detail, from pixels to performance.

Nice To Have:

Experience contributing to or managing a design system

Familiarity with content management tools or headless CMS

Background in education, publishing, or other high-scale consumer web domains

Exposure to event-driven systems or loosely coupled architectures
