Job description

The Chan Zuckerberg Initiative was founded by Priscilla Chan and Mark Zuckerberg in 2015 to help solve some of society’s toughest challenges — from eradicating disease and improving education to addressing the needs of our local communities. Our mission is to build a more inclusive, just, and healthy future for everyone.

The Team

At CZI, we pair technology with grantmaking to equip educators, families and students with tools that integrate high-quality research, practices and content to unlock the full potential of every student, no matter who they are or where they live. From program conception to software feature design, we center our work on student and educator voices to help educators address the day-to-day challenges in their classrooms. 

Since 2015, our grant investments have helped catalyze new tools, practices, and measures designed to foster whole-child outcomes. We leverage technology to provide research-based practices in products that help teachers connect with students and tailor learning experiences to individual student needs.

  • Establish and nurture partnerships with external stakeholders, integrating their insights and needs to enhance the knowledge graph’s utility and adoption.
  • Oversee the entire software development lifecycle, from ideation and roadmap planning to execution and iteration, ensuring timely delivery and exceptional quality.
What You'll Bring
  • 8+ years of Proven success in product management, with a strong track record of launching and scaling data platforms or technologically complex products, preferably in the educational technology market.
