About Masterschool

Masterschool is an applied education research lab on a mission to unlock human potential. We’re a group of educators, researchers, and engineers building software and models at the edge of what’s possible - with the goal of improving the lives of billions.

At MSIT – Master School Institute of Technology, a global network of schools led by industry leaders, we offer immersive online programs that equip students with the skills, mentorship, and industry connections necessary to succeed in tech careers.

Our Software Engineering School

Our Software Engineering School offers career-oriented training programs that prepare students for real-world backend and AI engineering roles. Students learn through a combination of structured content, hands-on projects, and live sessions, progressing from core programming and backend fundamentals to more advanced, industry-relevant topics.

We are currently expanding our AI-focused Software Engineering offerings, with a focus on two tracks:

• Generative AI: Integrating LLMs into software products and building intelligent applications
• AI Systems Backend Engineering: Building production-ready backend systems for LLMs and agents (tools, APIs, memory, actions)

About the role

Our content developers create practical, hands-on learning experiences that prepare students for real-world software engineering roles. You’ll join our content developer community and contribute to building and maintaining course content across the Software Engineering School, with an immediate focus on our Generative AI and AI Systems Backend Engineering tracks.

Your work will include writing lessons, designing exercises and projects, and creating materials for live sessions. You’ll collaborate closely with the Head of Training and other content developers to ensure content is clear, practical, and aligned with real engineering workflows.
