Bakpax | REMOTE | Senior Software Engineer | Do Good, Help Teachers!

We are a stealth-mode education technology startup using AI and Big Data to improve the lives of K-12 teachers and students.

Teachers are overworked and underappreciated. Bakpax wants to help carry some of the load.

We were started by the founder of adaptive learning giant Knewton, the head of global content marketing for Outbrain, and the head of engineering for Arena, a healthcare predictive analytics company.

We have investments from the leading edtech VC firm, Owl Ventures, the co-founder of Twitter's firm, Obvious Ventures, and the co-founder of LinkedIn's firm, Greylock Partners.

You will work with a small team of other very experienced engineers to get everything off the ground. From a computer vision and natural language processing pipeline, to the web API to the deployment & config system — it all needs to be built. This will be very fun to build, and you will be a hero to your teacher family members & friends

Do good! Help teachers!
