About Us Epic Kids is the leading digital reading platform built for kids 12 and under, trusted by millions of children, educators, and families around the world. Our mission is to inspire a lifelong love of reading by providing unlimited access to thousands of high-quality books, videos, and educational content through a safe and engaging experience. We combine technology, storytelling, and learning innovation to help every child become a confident reader. At Epic, you’ll join a collaborative and fast-paced global team passionate about building meaningful products that make a real impact on children’s education and literacy. Position Summary The Senior Software Engineer, Full-Stack will own meaningful pieces of Epic's web application end-to-end—from Angular UI through PHP and Go services to MySQL—and help raise the quality bar for the engineers around you. You are an experienced engineer who works independently on complex problems, makes sound technical decisions, and pulls in the right people when a decision touches another team. You will design and ship features that span the stack, partner with product, design, data, and infrastructure to land them well, and mentor more junior engineers through code review and pair work. Our back-end is multi-language: PHP/Symfony powers our long-standing application code, and we are actively investing in Go for newer services—senior engineers help drive that evolution thoughtfully rather than reflexively rewriting what works. This is a fully remote, US-based role working closely with a global engineering team with members in the US and China. Key Responsibilities Design and ship features end-to-end across the stack—Angular front-end through PHP/Symfony and Go back-end services, against MySQL—taking ownership from spec to production Make sound technical decisions on architecture, data modeling, API design, and state management; document trade-offs and align stakeholders before significant choices land in code Operate independent
