    Full time
    Description

    Great Minds, a rapidly growing, mission driven Public Benefits Corporation (PBC) that develops high quality knowledge building curricula for grades PK-12, seeks a Services Designer to join our dynamic team.


    Company Profile
    Great Minds brings teachers and scholars together to craft exemplary instructional materials that inspire joy in teaching and learning. Our curricula, Wit & Wisdom; Geodes; Eureka MathTM; and PhD ScienceTM all support teachers as they take students beyond rote learning to provide a deeper, more complete understanding of the humanities, mathematics, and sciences. Founded in 2007, Great Minds now employs more than 1,100 people.

    Our Market Position
    Great Minds' Eureka MathTM is the most widely used curriculum in the history of American education. It enjoys an unrivaled 40+ net promoter score. Eureka MathTM and its sister products, Wit & Wisdom and PhD ScienceTM, embrace much higher expectations for all students and all teachers. In a market dominated by scripted, procedural materials that drive expectations down, Great Minds produces curricula that celebrate knowledge, respect the craft of teaching, and acknowledge the true capabilities of students.
