I'm looking for experienced educators, industry practitioners, and subject matter experts who want to teach live workshops on YouTube. We're launching an experiment: grow our YouTube channel by focusing only on intermediate-to-advanced topics.
Class Central helps tens of millions of learners find the best courses. Small team (6 people), profitable, independent, 13+ years.
This is genuinely experimental. You plan and lead live workshops on subjects you know deeply. Any domain works. We promote them to our audience, and we figure out together what clicks.
I would like to skip the content farm tactics and beginner stuff. I just want to offer solid teaching for people ready to learn challenging subjects.
I'm looking for a senior engineer to take ownership (from me) of Class Central's codebase and infrastructure.
We help tens of millions of learners find the best courses on any subject. Small team (6 people), profitable, independent, and around for 13+ years. No VC drama, just sustainable growth.
Stack: PHP 8+, Symfony 7+, MySQL, Elasticsearch, Google Cloud. We keep it simple and productive.
Own the full stack, help shape our product, and build pragmatic solutions for our current scale. I am looking for product-minded engineers who are focused on user experience and driven to understand the business.
I'm building a new cross-functional product team from scratch (engineering, product, design). Looking for a foundational engineer who can mentor, collaborate, and help define how we work together.
Remote-first, async, very few meetings. Real autonomy, real impact. Fair warning: being fully remote means no annual Halloween Heists.
While I don't have a formal job post up yet, if you're at that point where this feels like the right next step, I'd be happy to hear from you: [email protected]
Class Central | Developer Education Specialist (Course Guide Author) | Remote (Global) | Full-time |
We’re the most popular search engine for online courses, and we’re hiring a deeply technical writer-researcher to help learners master tech skills by testing advanced courses and publishing “best course” guides.
You’ll: research, test, and evaluate courses (e.g., LangChain, DevSecOps, Nginx, pen-testing) and write clear, actionable guides with charts/images/layouts.
You are: a curious polyglot learner and clear writer, fluent with the command line, and comfortable driving projects in a remote team.
How we work: full-time, remote-first, async, very few meetings; we’re profitable and independent so you can ship fast and have real impact.
AI policy: AI can speed you up, but this is hands-on research and writing—you find and test the best courses yourself (not a prompt-engineering role).
Process: application review → paid writing test → interview with founder → paid trial → decision.
The current catalog covers 100+ providers, 1000+ universities, and 250,000+ courses.
Originally a weekend side project that I first shared with the world here on HN itself on Nov 29, 2011 [1]. Currently bootstrapped and profitable.
