Khan Academy — Mountain View, CA (remote possible)
We're a small, non-profit tech startup bringing a free, world-class education to anyone, anywhere.
Millions of people in all walks of life use our free platform to learn (check out testimonials at https://www.khanacademy.org/stories https://www.khanacademy.org/stories). Most of you reading this are probably familiar with Sal's videos, but we also have hundreds of videos by other teachers and a huge library of interactive exercises.
A few things we're currently working on building right now:
– Mobile apps to help students learn on the go and increase access to those who might not have access to a computer [1]
– Improved knowledge models so we can better predict what you know and what will help you [2]
– Infrastructure to make the site more reliable and faster for our millions of visitors every month [3]
Our current summer interns have already started arriving(!), but we'd happily talk to intern candidates for future terms.

- vruizext 11y agoAre you considering european applicants? In the job description it's not clear, it says, if I have a VISA I can apply, but are you sponsoring the VISA?
- prezjordan 11y agoWe unfortunately can't support such things right now as a super small company, but we'd love to be able to in the future (or for this to become easier for all in the US, crosses fingers)
