Khan Academy | Mountain View | Full-time
At Khan Academy, we’re building an early product development team which will explore and propose solutions to big open problems in education. We’re looking for a couple new prototyping-and-invention oriented colleagues to join us, and we naturally thought of you all. Our approach is multidisciplinary, but we’re seeking depth in interaction design (<a href=") and scrappy prototype engineering (<a href=").

We hope to help millions build critical thinking, historical reasoning, and literary analysis skills.

Please let us know if you’re at all interested in chatting more about the roles (REDACTED_EMAIL). Thank you!
