Edtech Companies
Edtech companies create the tools and materials that help people learn. There are roles in sales, marketing, and customer success — often working directly with school districts, higher-ed administrators, or HR and training leaders.
If you’re technical, there’s always demand for engineers, designers, and product managers to build products. If your background is in education or curriculum, you’ll find opportunities to design learning experiences, assessments, and content that drive real impact in classrooms and workplaces.
