Junior Software Engineer

At Epignosis, we build workplace learning software that enables more than 70,000 teams worldwide to offer training to millions of people. Our portfolio of tools can be used by organizations of any size and includes TalentLMS - a zero-overhead cloud LMS, eFront - an enterprise LMS, TalentCards - a mobile app for training the deskless workforce, and TalentHR - a lightweight HRIS to manage people ops. We are competing with the world’s top eLearning solutions and we aim at becoming world’s #1.

We're on a mission to democratize training by developing simple, accessible, and affordable software. We count 12.000+ companies as customers and with more than 12 million users across 126 countries logging in to use our platforms, we are a much-loved global leader in learning tech. At home, we are quickly becoming one of the largest SaaS company to come out of Greece.

We’re looking for a Junior Software Engineer to join the Technical Operations team behind eFront. Our team bridges development, internal tooling, infrastructure automation, and support engineering - and this role is a great entry point into all of the above, with an initial focus on software development.

This is a hands-on, growth-focused role ideal for someone early in their career who’s excited to build real-world systems, write clean and maintainable code, and gradually expand into areas like infrastructure and DevOps.

Responsibilities

As a Junior Software Engineer, you will:

• Build and maintain custom plugins and internal tools that extend and support the eFront LMS.
• Write clean, testable, and maintainable code using modern best practices.
• Collaborate closely with experienced engineers to scope and deliver features.
• Participate in code reviews, technical discussions, and mentoring sessions.
• Learn and gradually contribute to bug triage, infrastructure workflows, and support tooling.
• Grow your skills in a collaborative environment that prioritizes clarity, quality, and thoughtful progression.
  

To be successful in this role as a Junior Software Engineer, you should:

• A working knowledge of programming fundamentals - you can write simple programs, understand control flow, loops, and functions, and are familiar with concepts like data structures and code modularity.
• A responsible mindset - you take ownership of your work and hold yourself accountable when things go wrong.
• Willingness to learn - you welcome feedback and treat mistakes as chances to improve.
• Reliability - you show up, follow through, and can be trusted to get things done.
• A can-do attitude - you bring energy and curiosity to new challenges.
• A team-first approach - you’re humble, collaborative, and eager to contribute to a supportive culture.
• The ability to work effectively in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.
• A Computer Science degree is not required - what matters most is that you can demonstrate your skills, curiosity, and willingness to grow.

Bonus points

• Exposure to PHP8, Node.js, AWS, Git, and Linux - even hobby or academic projects count.
• Comfort with relational databases, especially MariaDB, and an understanding of how data fits into real-world applications.
• A working knowledge of terms like API, REST, JWT, and OAuth - and curiosity about how they come together in modern systems.
• Interest or experience in software design principles like SOLID, object-oriented programming, design patterns, and test-driven development (TDD).
• A sense of humor, a love for memes and GIFs, and a genuine joy in making things work - even if it takes a few attempts.

The most important thing we offer is a safe and healthy professional environment, giving you the opportunity to work on products that positively impact millions globally. Become part of Epignosis, a diverse group of smart, fun, and GIF-loving professionals in offices worldwide, including the U.S., the U.K., Greece, and Cyprus!
