Benefits
• Work on a product that blends two universally loved experiences: media and language learning. • Be part of a fast-scaling company on track to dominate its market. • Join a passionate, mission-driven team committed to making language learning engaging and effective. • Enjoy a collaborative remote environment that values autonomy and innovation.
