The World We're Building 
Imagine the first day of college. The first week of a new job. The moment someone decides to stay or go. 
We build the digital experiences that shape those moments. Our platforms power orientation and onboarding for 400+ institutions including Harvard, UCLA, and Florida State University. We welcome over 4.5 million people per year into important life transitions. We are the market leader in interactive, video-driven onboarding. What we build moves people. 

Team and Mission 
You will lead a skilled development team inside a 50-person company where your impact is immediate and visible. Reporting to the Director of Technology, you will set technical direction, establish standards, mentor engineers, and remain hands-on with production code.
