Senior Full Stack Software Engineer (Remote, Greece & Cyprus)

Job Description

At LearnWorlds, we believe learning is the original human superpower — the force that turns knowledge into products, skills, and progress.

Our platform helps creators, educators, and organizations in more than 150 countries turn expertise into scalable learning experiences that sell, teach, and transform. As AI floods the world with information, learning becomes the only countermeasure — the skill that keeps humans creative, relevant, and in control. The winners won’t be those who automate fastest, but those who learn and adapt fastest. They’ll need platforms that turn knowledge into teachable systems that scale — and that’s exactly what LearnWorlds enables.

Build. Ship. Learn. Improve. (Repeat.)

We’re redefining how people create and share online learning—and we’re doing it with engineers who care deeply about product quality, clean architecture, and meaningful impact.

We’re a remote-first, fast-growing EdTech SaaS with a global footprint. Our Engineering team builds the core experiences that thousands of educators and learners rely on daily. We move fast, we collaborate tightly, and we’re constantly leveling up—both as individuals and as a team.

We’re now looking for a Senior Full Stack Software Engineer who thrives in full-stack ownership, has strong frontend instincts (Vue.js), solid backend fundamentals (PHP), and is excited to use AI-assisted coding to speed up iteration without sacrificing quality.

If you’re a proactive builder who loves solving real product challenges, this is where you’ll do your best work.

 What You’ll Be Doing

• Design and ship full-stack features that delight users—from backend logic to pixel-perfect frontend.
• Get your hands dirty with complex modules like our Interactive Video Authoring Tool or marketing automation workflows.
• Write clean, scalable backend services in PHP, focusing on performance, robustness, and maintainability.
• Build responsive, modern UIs in Vue.js, ensuring smooth interactions and high-quality UX.
• Collaborate closely with PMs, designers, and engineers in fast feedback loops—we experiment, iterate, and ship.
• Participate in deep, structured code reviews and help shape engineering standards.
• Use AI-powered coding tools (Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor) to accelerate development, exploration, and testing.
• Squash bugs, refactor when needed, and always be on the lookout for better ways to do things.

 Why You’ll Love This Role

• You’ll work on real features used by thousands of educators and most importantly tens of millions of learners around the world.
• You’ll touch both frontend and backend, optimizing performance, building new tools, and improving existing ones.
• You’ll be part of a tight-knit team where your ideas matter and your code ships fast.
• You’ll grow fast—technically and professionally—in a team that’s generous with knowledge and big on collaboration.

You’ll Thrive Here If You…

• Prefer ownership over hand-holding and clarity over bureaucracy.
• Think speed and quality can (and should) co-exist.
• Ask “why” before “how,” and make decisions with context, not just checklists.
• Love clean code, good architecture, and continuous improvement.
• Embrace feedback, stay curious, and enjoy sharing knowledge.
• Believe AI won’t replace engineers—but it will empower the best ones.
