About the job

Awarded Software is on the lookout for a Senior Software Engineer who is passionate about transforming the scholarship landscape to make it fairer, more accessible, and transparent.

Each year, $240 billion in financial aid is available, yet a substantial amount is squandered, adversely affecting both students and donors. The scholarship ecosystem is plagued by outdated processes such as paper applications, unwieldy Excel spreadsheets requiring multiple approvals, and a stark lack of automation—leading to lost opportunities to change students' lives.

At Awarded, we have developed an innovative product that is already making waves across universities nationwide. We are seeking a driven and skilled engineer to join our team, enhance our development speed, and help us expand our reach.

Key Objectives

  1. Design and implement enhancements to our backend to effectively address and streamline complex scholarship workflows for institutions of all sizes.
  2. Lead initiatives to integrate Awarded with our clients' systems for a seamless user experience.
  3. Become a versatile expert across our technology stack, producing high-quality code for our frontend, backend, and infrastructure while balancing performance and maintainability.

What Defines Success

  • Excellence in Code: Your code should not only function but be a testament to your craftsmanship—efficient, maintainable, and scalable.
  • Accelerated Outcomes: You are committed to a rapid development pace, continually pushing the product to new heights and providing ongoing value to users.
  • Autonomous Leader: You are self-motivated and resourceful, thriving both independently and in collaborative settings.

About Awarded Software
