About us

Our vision is to radically improve learning for the world's 1.5 billion school students. We believe all students should have access to modern and engaging learning experiences. Our digital learning platform with curriculum aligned textbooks aims to redefine modern learning by increasing student engagement and allowing for more progressive teaching methods. Kognity is used by 1052 schools across 112 countries and we've just raised $20M to launch in the US. Come join us and build truly meaningful products for the world's young people.

You'll also be collaborating with our CTO and Engineers on tech-wide matters such as hiring, leadership, defining new roles, refining processes and development methodology.
