ABOUT EDROLO
At Edrolo, we're trusted by thousands of Australian teachers and students for curriculum-aligned video content and an extensive library of practice questions. Our newest product, MESHA, is a comparative assessment platform that surfaces misconceptions between NAPLAN years, giving teachers intelligence to act before small gaps compound. Our aim is the Results System: connecting insight, recommendation and practice.
WHO YOU ARE
Hands-on by default
- You write code, review code and unblock teams, not just whiteboard. Your PRs set the standard others follow.
Customer-first instinct
- You build toward outcomes teachers and students actually feel, not tickets closed. You know the difference between done and done well.
Architecture that ships
- You make the right structural calls without over-engineering. You balance long-term soundness with the reality of a fast-moving team.
Claude-accelerated delivery
- You leverage Claude to move faster, write better code and help your team do the same. This isn't theoretical for you.
WHAT YOU'LL BE WORKING ACROSS
- Adaptive UX — Build experiences tailored to how teachers and students actually work: interfaces that feel personal, responsive and genuinely useful.
- Results System — Build the connective tissue between insight, recommendation and practice — the core of Edrolo's product vision.
- AI feature integration — Bring LLM-powered capabilities to the surface in a way students and teachers can trust and actually use.
- Platform foundations — Identify and close the technical gaps that slow the team down: reliability, observability and developer experience.
WHAT YOU'LL OWN
- Ship customer-facing features end-to-end, from design alignment through to production, with high craft and clear ownership
- Lead architecture decisions across key product areas, making calls that the team can build confidently on for years
- Embed Claude across the team's development workflow: tooling, habits and practices that compound over time
- Define system design standards: APIs, data contracts, service boundaries and integration patterns across products
- Mentor engineers through pairing and review, raising the technical floor without slowing the team down
- Partner with product and design to scope and sequence work so the right things get built in the right order
- Collaborate openly across a small, fast-moving team: share context early, surface blockers quickly and contribute to a culture where everyone knows what's happening and why
EVERYONE IS WELCOME
Edrolo is committed to building a diverse and inclusive team. We encourage applications from people of all backgrounds, identities, and experiences — including women, people of colour, people with disabilities, members of the LGBTQIA+ community, carers, and First Nations peoples. We believe diverse perspectives make our products better and our team stronger. If you don't tick every box in this description but feel excited by the mission, we'd still love to hear from you.
About the Company
At Edrolo, our mission is simple: to improve education.
We're an Australian, venture-backed edtech startup with global ambitions. We currently have a team of over 170 Edrollers, and we are growing fast. Most of the team are located in Melbourne, Victoria and we also have an office in Sydney, NSW. As Edrolo continues to grow we now have a number of our Sales Edrollers working in Queensland and Western Australia too.
We are all passionate about our mission and building a culture where we can all do the best work of our lives.
Our belief is that all students should have access to the greatest teachers, people who bring subjects to life and inspire learning and passion. We believe students should have access to this regardless of where they live or what school they attend. Additionally, all schools should have access to powerful data to drive school improvement, which is accessible via our platform.
