About Quizlet:
Inspired by our belief that anyone can learn anything and powered by our own curiosity, we build the smartest tools we can imagine to help students learn.
Quizlet is the popular, global learning platform and app that millions of students, teachers and everyday people use to study any subject imaginable for school, work or as part of their personal interests -- including two-thirds of high school students and half of all college students in the US. Combining cognitive science and machine learning, Quizlet guides students through adaptive study activities to confidently reach their learning goals. We’re on track to become the undisputed leader in user-generated learning content and engagement, at the scale of YouTube.
Valued at $1 billion, Quizlet has raised over $60 million in venture capital from investors including Icon Ventures, Union Square Ventures, General Atlantic, Costanoa Ventures, Owl Ventures, and Altos Ventures.
To serve our global community of learners, our teams tackle lofty technical challenges and design for use cases across cultures and languages. We work hard, act like owners, and collaborate every chance we get. We’re energized by the potential to power more learners through multiple approaches and various tools.
About the Teams:
Product: Our product teams develop and maintain features that enable core study activities, where they typically support several features like Flashcards, Learn, Test, and Set Page. Some product teams focus on a single area, like Magic Notes or Expert Solutions. Other product teams help maintain more mature product areas like user growth, engagement, subscriptions, and ads.
Platform: Our platform team builds and maintains the core infrastructure and foundational components of our mobile apps for our product teams. They provide technical leadership, optimize performance, and support delivering high quality features to our users. The platform team works to support product teams with app scalability, performance, and robustness.

Quizlet is always looking for amazing folks that believe in our mission and can contribute to our team in various ways - not merely candidates that fit a certain mold.
We have a bias for action, take initiative, and take pride in delivering results.
