What you’ll be working on

Education is about the future: how do we make the future better than the present, how do we preserve the advances we have made so far, and how do we continue to expand the frontiers of human knowledge and capability?

The highest leverage tactic is to focus on childhood education. That’s what we’re doing at Synthesis. Specifically, our mission is to cultivate a generation of supercollaborators – people who can work together effectively to take on humanity’s most complex and vexing challenges.

We’re looking for people with exceptional intelligence, work ethic, and integrity to join us.


About Synthesis

Co-founder Josh Dahn built Ad Astra school for Elon’s kids at SpaceX. Now, we are scaling the most ambitious ideas from Ad Astra, starting with the most innovative class: Synthesis.

Synthesis teaches kids to collaboratively work with information like adults do. Students ages 6 to 14 meet once a week to form teams and play novel, complex games and simulations, moderated by an adult coach who encourages clear communication and rigorous analytical thinking. And that is just the beginning. We’re building “Ender’s Game for innovators”, a global internet-native academy to accelerate learning for the world’s most talented and driven students, those most likely to contribute to leaps in science and engineering that advance human progress.

We’ve grown revenue 5x in a little over a year – and we’d double again if we admitted everyone on our paid reservation list.

Synthesis is a purely remote team who, in addition to Ad Astra, has built Khan Academy, ClassDojo, Facebook, Google, Uber, Roam Research, and Flexport.

  • Meaningful equity
  • 100% covered health insurance for you & your dependents (including medical, dental, vision)

  • One-on-one tax advice: To make the most of our competitive equity-based compensation
  • Flexible time off
  • Flexible parental leave

Some benefits (such as medical and 401k) apply to US employees only.
