About DataCamp

DataCamp's mission is to empower everyone with the data and AI skills essential for 21st-century success. By providing practical, engaging learning experiences, DataCamp equips learners and organizations of all sizes to harness the power of data and AI. As a trusted partner to over 17 million learners and 6,000+ companies, including 80% of the Fortune 1000, DataCamp is leading the charge in addressing the critical data and AI skills shortage.

About the role

We are looking for a Full-Stack Software Engineer to join one of our dynamic product teams at DataCamp. In this role, you will contribute to building and improving different parts of our B2B platform, including our web application, integrations with external systems, single sign-on (SSO), and reporting features.

You’ll work closely with experienced engineers to develop and maintain full-stack solutions using modern frontend and backend technologies. With guidance and mentorship, you’ll help deliver user-centric features, learn how to design scalable systems, and grow your confidence tackling technical challenges across a broad product surface.

The team’s work is highly varied and hands-on: one day you might be contributing to data pipelines that power reporting, the next you could be debugging a client SSO integration, and another you may be improving the UX of how courses are assigned to learners. This versatility gives you exposure to many parts of the product and helps you build a well-rounded engineering skill set.

As part of the B2B Engineering team, you’ll be exposed to a variety of domains and technologies in a collaborative, fast-paced environment, while making a meaningful impact on how organizations use DataCamp to upskill their teams.

Your initiative and entrepreneurial spirit push you beyond just meeting targets—you aim to understand the "why" behind our goals and take ownership to drive the business forward. You’re a collaborative team player who values transparency and always seeks to improve and innovate. If this sounds like you, we encourage you to apply!

🎯 Who is this job for?

This role is ideal for a Junior to Middle Full-Stack Engineer with early experience in TypeScript, React, and Node.js who wants to grow in a product-focused environment. It suits someone comfortable building web features across the stack, collaborating with senior engineers, and learning how to design scalable systems, APIs, and integrations like SSO and reporting pipelines. You should be eager to improve your coding practices, work in Agile teams, and contribute to a platform focused on data science and AI education.

💬 Potential Interview Questions

How would you design a full-stack feature for a B2B learning platform using React, Node.js, and TypeScript?
I would split the feature into clear frontend, backend, and data responsibilities, with typed contracts between layers. On the frontend, I’d build reusable React components, and on the backend I’d expose clean API endpoints with validation and tests.
What are the benefits of using TypeScript across both frontend and backend applications?
TypeScript improves developer productivity through better autocomplete, safer refactoring, and earlier error detection. Sharing types between client and server also helps reduce integration bugs and keeps contracts consistent.
How would you handle authentication and SSO integration in a B2B SaaS platform?
I would use a standards-based approach such as SAML or OAuth/OIDC depending on the integration requirements. The implementation should include secure token handling, proper session management, and detailed logging for debugging customer-specific issues.
How do you ensure a React application remains scalable as the product grows?
I organize code by feature or domain, keep components reusable, and separate UI from business logic. Consistent patterns for state management, API access, and testing make the app easier to maintain as complexity increases.
What is your approach to building reliable reporting or analytics features?
I would make sure the data pipeline is accurate, well-tested, and efficient, especially if reports depend on aggregation or background jobs. On the UI side, I’d focus on clarity, performance, and making the data easy for business users to understand.
How do you debug an issue where a frontend feature works locally but fails in production?
I would compare environment differences, inspect network requests, review logs, and reproduce the issue as closely as possible. Then I’d isolate whether the problem comes from configuration, data, permissions, or an API mismatch.
How do you write clean and maintainable code in a full-stack TypeScript project?
I use clear naming, small focused functions, typed interfaces, and a consistent project structure. I also rely on code reviews, linting, and tests to keep the codebase understandable and reliable over time.
How would you design an API for assigning courses to learners in an enterprise product?
I would model the assignment flow around the core business rules, such as user eligibility, due dates, and organization boundaries. The API should be predictable, validated, and easy to extend for future requirements like bulk assignment or automation.
How do you approach testing in a modern full-stack web application?
I like to combine unit tests for business logic, integration tests for APIs and database behavior, and end-to-end tests for critical user journeys. This gives confidence that features work correctly at different levels of the system.
How do you collaborate effectively in an agile product team when working on varied tasks across the stack?
I try to communicate clearly, ask questions early, and break work into small deliverable steps. Being comfortable switching between frontend, backend, and debugging tasks is important in a fast-moving product team.
