At HubSpot, our Academy Product Group helps millions of learners grow their careers by mastering business strategy, new technology, and HubSpot’s software. The Academy Learner team plays a key role in this mission by connecting users with the right educational content at the right time—whether through intelligent search and recommendations or directly embedded learning experiences in our product.
We’re looking for a Backend Technical Lead II to join the Learner team and help us push the boundaries of personalized learning. If you’re passionate about building impactful backend systems, mentoring others, and exploring how AI can enhance learning, this could be a great fit.
What You'll Do As a Technical Lead at HubSpot, you’ll be a hands-on engineer (~70% coding) while also guiding your team’s technical direction and supporting other engineers’ growth. On the Academy Learner team, you’ll:
Own and evolve the backend systems powering search, recommendation, discovery, and embedded learning within Academy
Drive improvements to search and recommendation using machine learning systems
Build the next generation of personalized learning experiences, including a new Academy home page tailored to each user
Help embed Academy into the broader HubSpot product, allowing users to learn in context
Integrate Academy content with Breeze and our support tooling to surface learning when it’s most relevant
We’re Looking For Someone Who:
Has experience building and scaling backend systems, ideally in a fast-paced, product-focused environment
Is excited by problems in personalization, search, recommendation, or AI/ML
Has a strong foundation in Java or is comfortable picking it up
Can balance strong technical execution with a desire to support and grow others on the team
Has 2+ years of experience at a Senior SWE II level or equivalent
Is interested in technical leadership and potentially people leadership over time
Bonus Points If You:
Have worked on predictive AI systems, search, or recommendation engines
Have built or contributed to Generative AI experiences
Have experience in the education or e-learning space
Tech Stack: Java, ML systems, HubSpot’s internal tooling, AI/ML infrastructure
If you’re looking to lead high-impact work that helps people grow and learn every day—and want to do it in a team that values empathy, autonomy, and technical depth—we’d love to hear from you.
