Team

SameGoal currently serves 1M+ students across multiple states with a 98%+ annual renewal rate. We accomplish this with a lean, collaborative team that works together on a daily basis from multiple locations and across functional areas.

Company

School districts are required by federal, state, and local law to educate students in Special Programs, including Special Education, Section 504, RTI/MTSS and English Learners. Extensive documentation is required, which informs student education and drives district funding.
SameGoal is a web application that helps districts streamline documentation, compliance, and reporting - making it easier for districts to retain staff, boost program quality, and improve outcomes for students.

Role

SameGoal is customized on a per-state basis to meet state level requirements. This role is critical to ensure SameGoal meets these requirements in each state we serve, and that customizations incorporate typical district workflows and expectations.
This role will be vital to ensure continued product success in states we serve, and new states as we expand our national footprint.
Responsibilities include:

• Research: Research state-specific requirements that must be met for forms, reports, compliance, and timelines.
• Form Authoring: Convert state and federal forms into Extensible Markup Language (XML) files.
• Development: Using TypeScript, add validation rules to XML forms to ensure districts correctly follow state and federal requirements. Also using TypeScript, add deadline tracking and reporting on top of XML forms.
• Iteration/Maintenance: Update configuration files when state or federal requirements change.
• Overall Quality: Ensure all configuration files work in aggregate, and are compatible with one another.
• QA: Test state-specific customization changes prior to deployment.
• Collaborate regularly with team members across various areas of the company.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree or higher required
• Programming experience in at least one language
• Positive, confident, proactive work ethic & team player
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills
