  • Build and own products using AI that are used by millions of students
  • Develop opinions about product, be able to communicate them, and turn them into features. Be able to explain why a feature matters to users and how it moves metrics
  • Care more about outcomes and impact rather than the exact implementation, or the tools used to solve the problem
This mission is awesome, because you will…
  • Have the opportunity to grow and learn within an experienced team
  • Operate in a fast-paced start-up environment
  • Have a say in product decision-making
  • Play an integral part in the expansion of Europe’s fastest growing AI learning startup
  • Have direct impact with your decisions on millions of students from around the globe
  • Leveraging state-of-the-art AI tools (e.g. Cursor, o1)

Your story
  • You have worked with LLMs and are a strong at prompt engineering
  • You have experience with at least one backend programming language (e.g. Go, TypeScript, Python)
  • You thrive in a fast-paced start-up environment
  • You have a strong interest in consumer products
  • You believe in the power of speed and execution and love to get your hands dirty
  • You are obsessed to serve the user and strive to deliver over sticking to processes
