Company Description When you join Turnitin, you'll be welcomed into a company that is a recognized innovator in the global education space. For more than 25 years, Turnitin has partnered with educational institutions to promote honesty, consistency, and fairness across all subject areas and assessment types. Turnitin products are used by educational institutions and certification and licensing programs to uphold integrity and increase learning performance, and by students and professionals to do their best, original work.

Our diverse community of colleagues are all unified by a shared desire to make a difference in education. Turnitin is a global organization with team members in over 35 countries including the United States, Mexico, United Kingdom, Australia, Japan, India, and the Philippines. Job Description Responsibilities: Collaborate cross-functionally with the Engineering, Product, Quality Assurance, and Support teams Implement end-to-end solutions for Turnitin’s next generation of academic integrity products Break down large projects and features into independently workable/shippable milestones and stories Write readable, testable, and maintainable code Contribute throughout the front-end stack, developing features and reusable components for performant, accessible JavaScript applications that enable users to submit, view, and interact with documents they have written within the context of our integrity products Make contributions to both the short- and long-term development of our products and team processes Qualifications 2+ years professional software engineering experience working with modern JavaScript frameworks such as Angular, React, Vue, Backbone, or Ember developing scalable, performant applications Well-versed in best practices in writing efficient, understandable CSS and accessible, standards-compliant HTML Understand front end performance Familiar with current front end build systems (Webpack, Rollup) Well-versed in writing and running unit- and integration tests. Using Git as part of a collaborative team, including branching, pull request, and code review processes Accustomed to iterative development practices - breaking problems down, shipping small pieces rather than long-running features, etc. Can communicate effectively in English, both verbally and in writing Passionate about the software you build, and the way that you build it. We’re a small, high-output, largely self-directed team that prides itself on both the quality of the code we produce and on our commitment to improving our processes along the way. Opinionated enough to speak up when you think we could be doing something better than we’re doing it now -- and tactful and empathetic enough to communicate this in a way that brings people along instead of distancing them. Curious to try new approaches to problems, in code, architecture, and organizational matters. Don’t be afraid to try something that doesn’t work, or doesn’t work as well as you might like - but also know when to quit. Self-directed to seek out and understand not just the ‘what’ of what we’re building, but also the reason we’re building it - who is it for, how does it help them - and be informed by this knowledge to make your own decisions, large and small. Proactive communicator - both to teammates and our collaborators from other engineering teams, product, customer support, sales, you get the picture. Our work impacts a lot of people, and there are a lot of stakeholders who need to maintain context alongside us as progress / decisions are made. Practical enough to strike a balance between doing things ‘perfectly’ and doing things ‘well enough to ship’. That is, you should know what an ideal project or application looks like, and also know when diminishing returns get in the way of bringing a better experience to our users. Well-versed in understanding large feature requests and breaking them down into smaller, more manageable chunks of independently shippable work - and helping to organize the team to collaborate on working together or in parallel to get them done. Nice to Have: Automation (Jenkins or other CI/CD) Experience working with Typescript Familiarity with web accessibility best practices (WCAG 2.x, ARIA, semantic HTML) Interest in building inclusive, usable interfaces for all users Experience using accessibility testing tools (e.g., axe, Lighthouse, NVDA/VoiceOver, keyboard navigation testing) Experience in working with geographically distributed teams including the USA Ability to read Java code to autonomously navigate our backend codebases Additional Information Total Rewards @ Turnitin At Turnitin, we believe Total Rewards go far beyond pay.
