Build features and tools that directly impact teachers and students.
Own the platform experience through collaboration: define what gets built, why, and in what order, in close partnership with the engineering team.
Work directly with design and internal content/ELA pedagogy experts throughout the product lifecycle, from discovery to launch, to validate that features solve real classroom challenges.
Use data to determine what is working, what isn't, and where the greatest opportunity lies.
Experience working closely with design and subject-matter experts (content, pedagogy, or similar) to shape features, beyond simply handing off requirements.
Strong analytical skills, with the ability to dig into data directly rather than relying on others for answers.
