Mentava

Software Engineer

As a Software Engineer at Mentava, you'll build a learn-to-read app for 2- and 3-year-olds, improving upon an existing MVP.  Responsibilities include re-imagining the future of education, building engaging learning games, optimizing application performance, collaborating with the founding team, and defining core software development values.  You'll work on a product with a significant impact on children's education and Mentava's success.  The role requires comfort with challenging problems, a willingness to learn quickly, and participation in the company's hiring process.  You should be passionate about gifted education, rapid iteration, and user experience.

Our mission is to accelerate human achievement through education.We’re backed by Quiet, Floodgate, and more than 50 amazing angels like Tim Ferriss, Eric Ries, Garry Tan, Des Traynor, Balaji Srinivasan, Sheel Mohnot, Austen Allred, Amjad Masad, Mikhael Seregine, Jonathan Swanson, Dylan Field, Julian Weisser, and others.&nbsp;Mentava is building software to support independent, accelerated K12 learning. We:<ol style="min-height:1.5em"><li>Teach kids to teach themselves</li><li>Provide software that lets them learn at their own, accelerated pace</li><li>Show teachers the benefits of allowing independent study in their classes</li></ol>In our pilot, it took about 50 hours to get 2-year olds reading at a 2nd grade level. That’s about 30 mins a day(!) over 3 months(!) to cover what would take multiple years in school. And that accelerated pace of learning compounds: a child who can learn 2 years of content in a year should be a year ahead after kindergarten, 2 years ahead after 1st grade, 3 years ahead after 2nd grade…We fully expect our students to complete college-level math and programming before high school.Education creates pathways to success for kids of every socioeconomic class. When we encourage learning and achievement, we improve our society and our communities. Ultimately, to accelerate education is to accelerate human achievement.How many lives would be lost if the MRNA vaccine came a year later?
