ABOUT US

KaiPod Learning operates a network of microschools across 21 states.

We believe deeply that every parent deserves the right to send their children to a school they love. Unfortunately, most parents cannot access these schools – either because they don’t exist near them or they’re simply unaffordable.

We are working to change that reality in two ways. First, we partner with exceptional educators to help them start their own microschools. KaiPod Catalyst, our school startup accelerator, is the largest in the nation and can cut the time and cost to start a school by 90%.

Second, we are building the operating system to power this new generation of schools. We are the fastest growing network of our kind anywhere and our technology platform and our services help these schools grow, have greater impact, and change the face of American education.

Our long-term vision is bold: to connect 1 million students globally through the power of microschooling. The name KaiPod comes from the Greek word kairos, meaning “the right moment to act.” For millions of families, that moment is now.

We’re backed by Y Combinator, Reach Capital, and other top-tier investors who believe in the future of personalized, place-based education.

ABOUT YOU

You are a builder at heart. You are exceptionally organized, detail-oriented, and proactive. You thrive in bringing structure to complex and ambiguous situations and enjoy building systems and processes that help teams operate more efficiently. You are naturally curious and enjoy digging into customer feedback, identifying patterns, and turning insights into actionable recommendations.

You communicate clearly, follow through on commitments, and can effectively coordinate work across multiple stakeholders with competing priorities. You anticipate challenges before they become problems, maintain a high standard of quality in your work, and take ownership of outcomes rather than simply completing tasks.

You are excited by the opportunity to help shape a fast-growing company at an important stage. That means you are adaptable, low-ego, hungry to learn, and open to feedback. You thrive in environments where the playbook is still being written and your voice shapes what comes next.

More specifically, we are looking for candidates with:

3–7+ years of experience in Product Operations, Product Management, or a similar role.
Exceptional organizational and project management skills.
Strong written communication and documentation abilities.
Ability to synthesize large amounts of qualitative and quantitative information into actionable insights.
High attention to detail and strong follow-through.
Comfort operating in a fast-paced startup environment.
Experience as a self-starter learning and implementing software to improve task management, analytics etc.

Our team, along with our school network, spans the country. We are looking for strong candidates to work remotely and with the ability to travel and visit partner sites, as needed.
