It has never been more important that students around the world have the tools and support to learn through digital instruction — and that they be able to harness the power of the written word. Our Client helps students in more than 60% of middle and high schools in the U.S. become better writers. Our adaptive curriculum deeply engages learners by personalizing exercises to their interests, guides them step-by-step through the writing process, and boosts their skills through differentiated practice. We’re relentlessly focused on our mission to unlock every writer’s potential and to create a future where all students can harness the power of the written word.

​

To further advance our mission, we are looking to find a talented full-stack engineer excited to build features as part of a collaborative team of engineers, product managers and designers focused on improving user experience for teachers and students who rely on Our Client every day to hone their language and writing skills.
