Role Summary
As a Content Lead for Full Stack Development, you'll own the entire learning journey that takes students from writing their first HTML page to deploying a full-stack application in production. That includes designing the curriculum, writing reading materials, building assessments, creating lab exercises, and developing real projects that students can actually ship.
This is a hands-on creation role. You'll spend most of your time building, testing, and improving content. You'll also be building full apps yourself regularly as sample projects, so this isn't a role where you can get by on theory alone. If you can't build it, you can't teach it.
If you're someone who's equally comfortable spinning up a React frontend and wiring up an Express backend, has opinions about when to use Next.js over vanilla React, and gets excited about helping students build things that actually work, this is your role.
What You'll Do
- Design semester-wise curriculum and decide how topics are structured, sequenced, and paced across the academic calendar.
- Continuously evolve the content strategy based on what's working, what's not, and where the full stack ecosystem is heading.
- Write clear, in-depth reading materials that students can actually learn from independently. Not documentation rewrites, but well-structured explanations with real-world context and working examples.
- Design problems that test real understanding of how web applications work, not just framework-specific trivia.
- Build question banks following ByteXL's quality standards for difficulty distribution, answer balance, and auto-gradability.
- Create hands-on lab exercises that progressively build complexity across the stack.
- Design capstone projects and mini-apps that push students to integrate frontend, backend, database, auth, and deployment into a single working application.
- Build full sample projects yourself regularly to validate that what you're asking students to do is actually doable, meaningful, and teaches the right lessons.
- Stay current with how the full stack ecosystem is evolving.
- Try new ways of teaching and building content. If something could work better, prototype it and make the case.
What We're Looking For
Must Have
- B.Tech, M.Tech, MCA, or equivalent in Computer Science or a related field.
- 3–5 years of experience in full stack development, technical training, or content development with a strong focus on web technologies.
- Strong proficiency in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and TypeScript.
- Hands-on experience with React and at least one meta-framework like Next.js.
- Solid backend skills with Node.js and Express (experience with Bun or Hono is a plus).
- Working knowledge of SQL and NoSQL databases, ORMs, and ODMs.
- Experience with authentication patterns, REST API design, and microservices basics.
- Comfortable with Git, Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines, and deployment workflows.
- Familiarity with modern frontend tooling like Tailwind CSS, ShadCN, and TanStack libraries.
- Has shipped real projects or products, not just tutorials.
- Can explain a WebSocket connection or a database migration clearly enough that someone building their first app gets it right.
- Works independently without needing constant direction.
Nice to Have
- Prior open-source contributions.
- Strong grasp of system design.
- Experience with serverless architectures or cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Vercel).
- Background in technical training, bootcamp instruction, or developer education.
- Experience designing auto-graded coding assessments.
