**Summary:** As a mid-level Software Developer, you will be an experienced engineer on a 3-person dev team focused on adding new “Item Assist” features using C# and Angular into the ExamDeveloper web app. You’ll work with QA consultants in India and additional temporary Dev and QA consultants. **The Tool:** Our Item Assist tool started off as a standalone prototype tool for letting users use generative AI (Artificial Intelligence) to create test questions. Building upon the success of the prototype we are incorporating these AI interactions into Pearson VUE’s ExamDeveloper item authoring tool (https://www.pearsonvue.com/us/en/test-owners/develop.html). ExamDeveloper is a web-based exam development platform that allows our customers to write, review and manage questions on their exams. ExamDeveloper is the leading web-based tool for creating tests to certify test-takers in the professional skills they require. Customers rely on ExamDeveloper to support their entire workflow around question writing, collaborative review, scoring, and test management. Special note: this role and this specific team will not be doing AI-based development work. Other engineering teams at Pearson are working on the AI capabilities that power the Item Assist product. The Item Assist features in ExamDeveloper represent the user interface and the application experience for our customers. Therefore, skills like machine learning, prompting, large language models, etc are not applicable to this role, but some knowledge about AI concepts could be beneficial. In this role you’ll focus on the new Item Assist features in ExamDeveloper but will also work on other ExamDeveloper development efforts. You will partner with the Product Manager to bring their vision to reality and work alongside the Architect, Project Manager, and Business Analyst. ExamDeveloper’s primary tech stack is .NET and C# on the backend and Angular on the frontend hosted in Microsoft Azure. Item Assist will use an in-house Angular-based UI framework. You’ll work with containerized services orchestrated by Kubernetes and Microsoft SQL Server. We strongly prefer Angular experience because it is an important technology for this product. **Work Location:** REMOTE - United States , required to work mostly Central time zone normal business hours. **Responsibilities:** + Develop new features + Fix defects that are reported by QA or by users + Create unit tests to verify correctness of the code + Enforce high standards of software development to achieve quality + Propose technical designs with the support of other engineers + Release and On-call duties -- Participate in release deployment activities and a rotating on-call escalation system during non-business hours. **Required Education and Experience:** + 3+ years work experience as a software developer + 2+ years experience with Angular or similar front-end software frameworks (like React, Svelte, etc) + 2+ years experience with C# + Bachelor degree in Computer Science, MIS, or equivalent technology discipline **Desired Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities:** + Relational databases + DevOps workflows related to cloud-based development and deployment + Experience in an Agile software development environment + Clear communication skills to various types of audiences + History of continuous improvement Compensation at Pearson is influenced by a wide array of factors including but not limited to skill set, level of experience, and specific location.
