Memorang (<a href=") | Los Angeles, CA | Full-Time | Remote-OK | Software Engineering Lead |
# Overview
We're building the world's first content-agnostic study platform and exam marketplace from grade school through graduate school. Our mission is to automate and innovate upon cognitive techniques and strategies to level the playing field in education, especially as it pertains to knowledge acquisition, retention, and mastery.
The core of the platform is our data model that supports complex content, from art history to engineering certifications (think Google Knowledge Graph). By unifying the crowdsourced community and premium content marketplace (for 3rd-party businesses) we aim to turn Memorang into a lifelong learning platform for hundreds of career paths. Think of the product as an education-focused chimera of Anki, Kaplan, Dropbox, Amazon, and Squarespace.
