The Indian internet has exploded. Over half a billion Indians will be online before the end of this year. Most of these Indians will prefer using their own language online. And next to nobody is building solutions for them. They are prevented from using the internet to its fullest potential because English forms a language barrier. Whenever they visit a site or app, they are met with a wall of text in a language that they do not understand. We at Reverie believe in language equality on the internet. It’s what drives us and gives what we do meaning. Language equality basically means that every Indian should enjoy the same range of options and experiences online in their own language that an English speaker does online.
What We Do
We take immense pride in the fact that we tackle some of the most complex and impactful problems Indian language users currently face today. We’re working towards our mission of language equality by building a full-stack of language technologies and solutions, spanning fonts, font rendering, transliteration, translation, app & website localization in real-time, Indian language input (check out our Swalekh keypad on the App Store here), Indian language voice assistants, and Indic search, to empower the Indian language user and let them tap into the possibilities the internet offers them.

We are adopters of leading OSS cloud stacks like Netflix OSS and Spring Cloud for building resilient, fault tolerant and scalable products. Our developers believe in giving back to the community and are actively involved in the OSS projects through pull requests or technical discussions.
The micro services developed in Java are based on Spring Boot, therefore Spring is our preferred framework. The micro services are usually exposed through a REST API and are consumed through SDKs or by our own web applications which are usually built in ExtJS. Our engineers are familiar with multiple build and deploy pipelines. We implement Continuous Delivery by using tools like Maven, Jenkins, Selenium, Cucumber and JMetter, Pact, Nexus and deploying our services through Chef recipes on a hybrid cloud offered by Amazon AWS.

Loves to write code and has good algorithmic skills
Is agile so first and foremost has the right agile mindset and second is aware of principles and practices that support and scale agility
Learns and plays continuously, so is able to quickly assess the value of any technology

Is familiar with some of the Java technologies described above, where the Spring family (Spring Boot, Spring Cloud, …) has a well deserved first place
Knows how to build services that scale, in general is familiar with how to implement architectural concerns like availability, layering, reliability, reuse, serviceability and security
Cares about code quality and craftsmanship; enjoys aspects like code review, static code analysis, pyramid of tests, test automation to a high degree
Is a product developer; cares about his products and about the customers; wants to be involved in all the SDLC and beyond and consistently questions if what is going to be built is going to bring value to his customers
Is a firm believer in freedom and responsibility; this continues to be a core principle in what we do here in Language Cloud and RWS Cluj
Knows how to get things done and learned that make it run then make it right then make it fast is a good recipe for quick delivery
Wants to be part of a Scrum team that is highly self-organized, owns micro services from inception to production support (you build it, you run it mentality) and is in synch with other Scrum teams implementing Scaled Agile Framework
Believes that in modern software development attitude and motivation plus ability to learn fast is more important than skills and expertise
Takes time to sharpen the saw and to enjoy the journey

We want to make people’s lives better by helping people learn to hold a conversation with, and genuinely understand native speakers in a multitude of languages.
We believe that better communication between people across the world from different backgrounds will contribute towards making it a better place.
With over 60m user accounts, an App Store rating of 4.7/5 and Google Play rating of 4.6/5 from 1.5million reviews, and millions of daily active users, we’re an ambitious digital company in the exciting and ever-growing EdTech industry.
A key part of our product appeal lies in the humour of our content, and in authentically understanding diversity and nuances across cultures and what appeals to different people. So if you’re looking for a role that’s less big-corporate and where being yourself is regarded as an asset: we strongly suggest you consider applying!
What’s the working environment like?
After two years of being away from the office, we’re gently transitioning to a hybrid working environment.
Since COVID hit, we’ve prioritised the welfare of our staff and so - to date - office attendance has been voluntary (although incentivised with catered food, learning events and parties!). It’s worth noting our office location is on the doorstep of Spitalfields market in London with its delicious and varied lunchtime food offerings! Historically, we’ve been a very sociable company with plenty of parties, and where colleagues become great friends.
The future of what work looks like continues to remain an active conversation, but across the company we’ve committed that teams will not be expected into the office more than two days a week. In practice, this is likely to be less, as we adapt pragmatically in a changeable world.
You’ll join our London team of open-minded, big-hearted, goal-oriented ‘Memrisians’, made up of linguists, developers, designers, marketers and more, all working together to do great things. Get in touch if you want to join the team.

Who are we?
Memrise is a popular and established global language learning tool with a unique brain-science-backed pedagogy.
Our goal is to "Help people acquire a language, profitably."
For the foreseeable future, Memrise is intensely focused on three strategies to accomplish this goal:
Land all three legs of our pedagogical stool (Learn | Immerse | Communicate)
Become the greatest language content company
Dramatically grow registrations
All of these things require a volume of content that is many orders of magnitude greater than we have today. The only way we will get to the scale we need to deliver on these three strategic initiatives is to use the latest and greatest technologies to gather and deploy this content in an orderly manner and have a solid infrastructure behind it.
We want to make people’s lives better by helping people learn to hold a conversation with, and genuinely understand native speakers in a multitude of languages.
We believe that better communication between people across the world from different backgrounds will contribute towards making it a better place.
