Company info

  • At Learning Commons, we operate at the intersection of technology, research, and philanthropy.
  • We pair product development with grantmaking to scale proven teaching and learning practices for the benefit of every learner.
  • We aim to bring learning science into the tools educators and students use every day.
  • Our work is grounded in a deep belief: when technology reflects the realities of classrooms and the science of how students learn, it can meaningfully strengthen teaching and unlock new possibilities for students.
  • The rise of generative AI offers us a once-in-a-generation opportunity to dramatically accelerate the translation of research insights into practical, classroom-ready tools; tools that honor teachers' expertise, adapt to students' needs, and make effective learning practices easier to access, implement, and sustain.
  • In today's fragmented edtech landscape, school districts are often left piecing together products that don't always align with curricula or instructional needs.
  • While AI holds enormous potential to support teachers and students, it can only deliver on that promise when grounded in research, high-quality educational data, and expert evaluation.
  • That's why we're building open, public-purpose infrastructure - datasets, rubrics, and resources - that help raise the standard for educational tools and create more consistent, impactful learning experiences for all students and teachers.
  • Learning Commons is building shared infrastructure for education that enables organizations to better connect, understand, evaluate, and improve learning experiences.
  • Our products-including our Knowledge Graph, Evaluators, and future AI-powered offerings-help partners unlock value from educational data, content, and learning experiences at scale.
  • We work closely with EdTech companies and other ecosystem partners to bring these capabilities into real-world products and workflows while continuously learning from deployments to improve our platform.
  • It is ideal for someone who enjoys building new products, working closely with customers, and operating in ambiguous environments.
  • Experience working directly with customers, partners, or external organizations to solve technical problems and deliver solutions.
