Global education network operating 400K+ students across 40 countries
Grupo SEB runs a diversified education portfolio spanning K-12, higher education, bilingual, and distance learning, serving 400K+ students across ~40 countries with 7K+ educators. The tech stack is Windows/Office-native (Excel, Power BI, SQL) with emerging application platforms (.NET, Django, PostgreSQL, MongoDB) and observability tooling (Datadog, Azure Insights) — a pattern suggesting active modernization of legacy systems. Hiring velocity is accelerating with education roles dominating (32 of 78 open positions), but engineering capacity remains thin (3 roles), pointing to heavy reliance on outsourced or embedded vendor solutions for technology scaling.
