Original posting

Khan Academy — Mountain View, CA (remote possible) We're a small, non-profit tech startup bringing a free, world-class education to anyone, anywhere. Millions of people in all walks of life use our free platform to learn (check out testimonials at https://www.khanacademy.org/stories). Most of you reading this are probably familiar with Sal's videos, but we also have hundreds of videos by other teachers and a huge library of interactive exercises. A few things we're currently working on building right now: – Mobile apps to help students learn on the go and increase access to those who might not have access to a computer [1] – Improved knowledge models so we can better predict what you know and what will help you [2] – Infrastructure to make the site more reliable and faster for our millions of visitors every month [3] Our current summer interns have already started arriving(!), but we'd happily talk to intern candidates for future terms.
