Job Description

About the project

LabXchange is a nonprofit science education project based at Harvard University funded by the Amgen Foundation.

Too many students lack access to high-quality science education and opportunities to meaningfully engage in the scientific process, whether due to economic or geographic limitations. Globally, this has led to significant gaps in diversity across scientific fields and in scientific literacy overall. We believe students everywhere should have equal opportunity to prepare for and succeed in science.

We aim to do this by making the best of digital science education available for free to teachers and students around the world through an advanced, flexible, and interactive learning platform. This involves going way beyond text, videos, and MCQs to virtual lab simulations, interactive animations, experimental design simulations, and a knowledge graph that can be remixed into customized learning pathways. Social features like private classes, discussion forums, and mentorship empower and connect learners with educators.

We are a diverse team of 100+ people spread globally, with clusters in Cambridge, Massachusetts, Lahore, and Cape Town.
