Description
About Us
Platzi is the largest technology school in the Hispanic world with over 7 million students and 4,000 companies trusting us to deliver effective online education. Our mission is to make Latin America a technology superpower. We do it by training companies and individuals in areas such as AI, Cybersecurity, English, Programming and Leadership.
As an industry leader, our presence is highlighted by our massive and fanatic community, extensive press coverage and a daily stream of success stories from students. We operate mostly remote, with key offices in Bogotá, Medellín and Mexico City.
Summary
As a Senior Software Engineer at Platzi you build and own the systems behind the product millions of students use in Latin America: the data model, the services, how they behave under load, and how they recover when they break. You work very close to the Growth Marketing team, and you report to the Engineering Manager. Seniority here means judgment, not distance from the code. You take an ambiguous problem and come back with a decision you can defend, including the decision not to build, and you care about what your code costs to run and to maintain a year from now, not only about getting it merged.
