Founding Full Stack Engineer

We’re third-time founders (MasterClass, Outlier.org , etc.) building a new way to apply AI to the education system.

Education is a trillion-dollar market that hasn’t meaningfully innovated in 150 years. Costs rise. Outcomes fall. Students everywhere deserve better.

Our mission Fix education and help every student on earth reach their full potential.

Build an AI Teacher Assistant/Grader that saves teachers 10-15 hours a week by automating assessment and reporting, while producing the most accurate, real-time student performance data in the world.

Sell access to that data layer to schools and parents.

Expand into adjacent products (personalized learning, predictive interventions, competency-based certifications) all powered by the same core data.

You can only improve what you measure.

Every student deserves the chance to express their unique gifts.

The best results come from personalized instruction.

The AI platform shift is the biggest opportunity of our lifetimes to improve education.
