• Collaborate on data-driven enhancements that improve learner experience and content delivery.
• Utilize Cursor or similar AI-powered IDEs for development and collaboration.
• Ensure the platform meets performance, scalability, and security standards.

Required Skills:

• Laravel (5+ years) -- strong backend architecture and API experience
• SCORM / LMS familiarity
• MySQL / REST APIs / JSON
• Experience with AI-assisted IDEs (Cursor, GitHub Copilot, etc.)
• Git (Bitbucket or GitHub) workflow experience
• Understanding of modular system design and adaptive user experiences

Nice to Have:

• Prior experience in EdTech or e-learning systems
• Exposure to AI / NLP / LLM API integrations
