Requirements
• Develop interactive courses that teach foundational principles of algebra, geometry, probability, calculus, and beyond. • Design visual, puzzle-driven learning experiences that guide learners along problem-solving journeys that promote mathematical thinking and deeper understanding. • Decompose complex mathematical ideas into approachable, well-sequenced steps that empower learners to reason from first principles. • Create content that is clear, creative, and intuitive — using visuals, interactivity, and problem sequencing to help learners build confidence and mastery. • Collaborate with product, design, and engineering teams to imagine and create new interactive features, visuals, and mechanics that elevate the learning experience on both computers and phones. • Have an undergraduate degree or above in a STEM field, and you’ve developed a strong grounding through research or teaching that extends beyond traditional math curricula. • Have a knack for teaching complex topics using a progression of clear, simple, hands-on steps. • You have experience with building or using interactivity to motivate, engage, and challenge learners, in synchronous or asynchronous contexts. • Have a way with words, especially when communicating challenging concepts, and your writing skills (in English) are top notch. • Are great at context switching and prioritizing across a large workload. • Have an openness to change and a willingness to experiment with formats and platforms. • Are not afraid to jump into any aspect of a project to fill a vacuum, no matter how big or small.

Benefits
• Brilliant has a mission you can get behind. We’re a company that’s inspiring and developing people to achieve their goals in STEM – one person, one question, and one small commitment to learning at a time. • Medical, dental, and vision benefits – we pay 100% of the premiums • Equipment budget for computer and peripherals • 401(k) plan (non-matching) • Paid parental leave • Free lunch in the office • Weekly happy hour • Flexible vacation time • Fully-stocked pantry and refrigerator with snacks and drinks • Sponsorship for conferences and professional development • A stimulating work environment and a chance to change the world • Our CCPA Privacy Notice can be found here. • We use a systematic compensation framework: salary scales are set each year for each job vertical, managers level folks on their team, and those levels are mapped directly to our compensation scales. A location-based adjustment is applied outside of SF and NYC (typically 5-10%) - feel free to ask us about your location! • Given the systematic approach, we always make First and Best offers - there is no negotiation (for new hires nor our existing teammates). This ensures people are paid based on their expected contribution, not their negotiation skills. • We offer top-notch health care plans, with 100% of the premiums covered for medical, dental, and vision for employees. • We offer flexible PTO, with a norm of taking off about 6 weeks per year (including federal holidays). We also provide home office equipment, a professional development stipend, and free food at our offices.
