CodePath is reprogramming higher education to create the first AI-native generation of engineers, CTOs, and founders.

Summary Generated by Built In

CodePath is an AI-native organization building pathways into tech for the next generation of engineers, CTOs, and founders. We deliver industry-vetted technical courses and programs to learners across the country.

We operate with the pace and ownership culture of a technical startup. Our team runs on Claude, partners with Anthropic, and uses AI as a core part of how we work. The problems here are technically hard, the impact is visible, and the people are sharp.
With 40,000+ learners and alumni from 1,100+ colleges now working at 4,050 companies, including Amazon, Google, and Meta, we are reshaping who leads tech and how the industry gets built.

About the Role

Location: Remote (United States, Europe, Canada, or LATAM)

Role Type: Full-Time 

Reporting to: VP of Engineering

Compensation: $140,000 to $178,000 per year for US-based applicants. Adjusted contingent on location for applicants based in Canada, LATAM, and Europe.

CodePath's educational programs run on our learning platform, a set of applications spanning admissions, course delivery, grading, career coaching, and reporting. A small engineering team builds and maintains all of it. As we build more and serve more learners, we need someone whose job is to keep that work organized, tested, and moving.

We're looking for an Engineering Project and QA Manager who works alongside our engineers day to day. You'll keep projects organized and moving, make sure what we build gets tested and bugs get fixed, and keep the engineers, the product team, and the internal teams who use our tools in sync.

 

Key Activities

  • Keep engineering projects organized and moving: track what's in flight, flag what's blocked, and help the team stay clear on what's next

  • Own quality: test what we build, use AI to automate the repetitive parts, and write Capybara tests where they're worth it

  • Run the bug pipeline: reproduce issues, prioritize them, route them to the right engineer, and confirm the fix

  • Be the day-to-day connection between the engineers, the product team, and the internal teams who use our tools

  • Work with us to determine when adding process or rituals might be useful, but being thoughtful about the cost and friction

  • Report on status so the team and leadership know where things stand


Qualifications

  • 4+ years in a project management, delivery, or QA role, ideally on a small engineering team

  • Technical enough to work closely with engineers: you can reproduce a bug, read a stack trace, and write a test case to automate fixing it

  • Hands-on QA experience: you've owned testing and a bug pipeline, manual or automated

  • Comfort using AI tools to automate work you used to do by hand

  • Good judgment about process: you add structure when it helps and leave it out when it doesn't

  • Strong written and verbal communication, and you work well with people

  • Comfort with ambiguity and small-team dynamics. You've worked without heavy process and know how to keep things moving without it

  • Passion for education and desire to make a positive impact

Nice to Haves

  • Familiarity with Ruby on Rails or Django codebases, the stacks we run

  • Experience with Capybara, RSpec, or comparable testing tools

  • Experience working with product managers and non-technical stakeholders

  • Experience as the first project manager or QA hire on a team

What We Do

We deliver industry-vetted courses and career support centered on the needs of first-generation and low-income students. Our students train with senior engineers, intern at top companies, and rise together to become the tech leaders of tomorrow. Breaking into the tech industry requires a number of factors: industry-relevant knowledge, connections, specific hard and soft skills, an understanding of how to navigate the job search, and the technical interviewing process. ​​Many college CS programs don't have the depth of resources or support needed to practically set students up for career success, like keeping up with the latest industry trends, building employer partnerships, and providing access to critical internships where students can get a foothold in the industry. Even the most well-funded, prestigious programs can have gaps that prevent a comprehensive education.

Why Work With Us

We believe tech excellence can be within reach for anyone given the right resources and the chance to apply them. When you work here, you're helping make that real. If building a more inclusive future of tech alongside bright students, college programs, and top employers sounds like your kind of work, CodePath is the place.
