About Nerdy

Nerdy is redrawing the blueprint of learning, pioneering a direct-to-consumer platform for live online education. You'll contribute to a mission to transform how people learn through technology, leveraging a proprietary Live + AI™ platform. This platform fuses human expertise with generative AI to connect learners of all ages to experts across over 3,000 subjects. Nerdy's comprehensive learning destination offers diverse formats like one-on-one instruction, small group classes, large format group classes, and adaptive self-study. Their flagship business, Varsity Tutors, is a major player in live online tutoring and classes.

How We Work

Nerdy fosters a high-performance, innovation-driven culture that prioritizes intellectual curiosity, ownership, and a bias for action. They encourage a collaborative environment, operating with entrepreneurial velocity. Ideas rise or fall on merit and results, not politics, with a focus on mission-aligned outcomes. Everyone, from the CEO to new hires, builds and ships with generative AI, with the expectation that if you're not wielding AI, you're not done. You'll find a culture that values full-stack ownership, where you design, build, and run what you ship. Rewards are tied directly to impact, with pay rising with outcomes, not just years of experience.

Engineering at Nerdy

As an engineer at Nerdy, you will solve complex technical challenges at the intersection of live human expertise and generative AI. The team is building the Live + AI™ platform, designed for personalized learning at scale. They prioritize an AI-native approach, where every new feature begins with the question, "How can generative AI make this radically better?" This means using AI as a force-multiplier for expert instructors and integrating AI tooling across engineering, product, design, and marketing to write, code, test, analyze, and iterate faster. The platform's models learn from millions of live sessions and adapt daily. You'll work in AWS-based cloud architecture environments, using JavaScript, TypeScript, Java, and Golang.
