NovoEd is an enterprise learning platform that helps organizations build critical capabilities at scale through collaborative and experiential learning. Founded in 2012 out of Stanford’s Social Algorithm Laboratory, NovoEd has grown into a trusted partner for many of the world’s leading companies, executive education providers, and training organizations.
Today, NovoEd powers a modern learning ecosystem built around three core experiences: Learning, Mentoring, and Practicing. Our platform enables organizations to deliver cohort-based learning, structured mentorship, and real-world skill application in a single integrated environment—helping employees move beyond passive learning to actively develop and apply new skills.
AI is now a core part of the NovoEd platform. AI helps course creators generate and structure learning content more efficiently, provides learners with personalized insights and feedback, and supports interactive learning experiences such as guided practice, coaching, and role-playing scenarios. These capabilities help organizations scale high-quality learning experiences while maintaining engagement and practical skill development.
By combining collaborative learning design, AI-powered capabilities, and enterprise-grade technology, NovoEd connects global learners, mentors, and leaders in high-impact programs that drive measurable business outcomes. Organizations rely on NovoEd to develop leadership capabilities, accelerate transformation initiatives, and build the skills their workforce needs to succeed in a rapidly evolving world.
We are seeking a Principal Backend Engineer with deep expertise in backend systems and a strong track record of architecting scalable, reliable platforms. This role is responsible for shaping the technical direction of our backend architecture and helping guide the long-term evolution of our systems as the product and organization grow. In addition to defining architecture, the Principal Engineer owns platform-level outcomes, ensuring that backend systems deliver strong performance, reliability, and scalability that directly support business and product goals.
As a Principal Engineer, you will combine hands-on technical leadership with strategic architectural thinking. You will partner closely with engineering leadership, product teams, and cross-functional stakeholders to design solutions that balance scalability, reliability, and development velocity. In addition to leading complex technical initiatives, you will mentor engineers, influence engineering standards, and help raise the technical bar across the organization. You will also identify and address systemic technical debt that impacts platform performance, reliability, and developer productivity, and drive initiatives that improve the organization’s ability to ship high-quality features faster.
You will also help advance modern engineering practices across the team, including the effective use of AI-assisted development tools and automation to improve developer productivity while maintaining rigorous standards for system design, code quality, and operational reliability.
Our engineering team embraces AI as a productivity multiplier while maintaining strong engineering fundamentals. Principal engineers play a key role in shaping how AI is used responsibly and effectively across the organization.
In this role, you will:
Identify opportunities where automation or AI can meaningfully improve developer productivity and system quality.
At NovoEd, you will help shape the technology behind a platform used by some of the world’s leading organizations to develop talent and drive meaningful business outcomes. Our team is passionate about building products that make learning more collaborative, practical, and impactful.
As part of our engineering team, you’ll work on complex technical challenges across a platform that supports global programs, large-scale collaboration, and increasingly AI-powered learning experiences. You’ll collaborate with thoughtful teammates, contribute to systems that power real-world learning and development, and have the opportunity to influence the evolution of a growing multi-product platform spanning Learning, Mentoring, and Practicing.
We value curiosity, craftsmanship, and a culture of continuous improvement. Engineers at NovoEd are encouraged to explore new ideas, adopt modern tools and practices, and build solutions that deliver long-term value for our customers.

Collaborative leadership: You excel at building productive relationships with cross-functional partners of varying experience levels, from PMs to engineers
Strategic communication: You present complex ideas clearly, anticipate concerns, and lead productive discussions that result in actionable outcomes
Adaptive problem-solving: You stay focused on core problems while remaining flexible when new information or priorities emerge
User-centered intuition: You balance data-driven decisions with cognitive empathy, making confident design choices even when complete research isn't available
