Our Purpose

Most technology in education is not built for the modern learning experience. It’s complex, unpredictable and no two classes are ever the same. Teachers waste time on non-teaching activities and they find it difficult to collaborate with other teachers. At Firefly, we’re freeing teachers to have a greater impact on the learning experience. Firefly allows teachers to innovate and cater to each student’s needs, preparing all students for success in the future.

Our Engineering Team & Engineering Culture

We offer a fantastic work environment and people-focused culture. We have worked hard to foster a collaborative and positive workplace. Everyone has the opportunity to impact technical decisions and be involved in software architectural decisions. We strongly believe that by harnessing the unique views at all levels within our Engineering team, it allows us to craft better products.

We love to debate new technology and discuss alternative ways to approach what we want to achieve, as with a fresh technology approach we can have an understanding of the ‘the art of the possible’ .

Our engineering teams are organised into squads and each squad is organised around a product. These squads are formed from a mix of developers, testers and designers, who work alongside a Product Manager and Squad Lead to build feature requests. Following a highly collaborative process enables everyone to actively participate in sprint planning, regular stand-ups, code pairing and code reviews.

Step up. Join Us. Make a difference.

What we do and the products that we create have a direct impact on people during a critical period in their life. Education plays a big part in shaping everything that comes after, so helping to make those formative years more productive, less challenging and of higher benefit will be our, and your, number one priority.

At Firefly Learning you’ll build technology you can be genuinely proud of.
