About Brilliant Brilliant is creating a world of better problem solvers. We deliver learning that's interactive, adaptive, and fun – at scale. You can learn more about our approach, learners, and method on our about page . We have always prioritized building a real, healthy business. We serve hundreds of thousands of paid subscribers, and want you to help us serve millions. We are default alive (will be profitable before needing to raise), and make hires very selectively and intentionally. In our day-to-day, we value adventure, excellence, generosity, and candor. We are optimists in the face of uncertainty, we take pride in our work, we go the extra mile for each other, and we tell it like it is (the good and the bad). We’re here to do the best work of our lives together. We believe that real-time collaboration and human connection are necessary ingredients in building a high-velocity, creatively-oriented consumer product. We maintain core hours (9:30am - 2:30pm Pacific) when everyone is online, regardless of timezone. Over half of us are located near our hubs in SF and NYC. In addition to what’s below, you can see all open roles and learn more about our culture on our careers page . The Role CS Learning Designers at Brilliant design interactive learning games to teach programming and algorithmic thinking. We’re hiring exceptional learning designers who can teach computer science concepts creatively using Python, as well as brainstorm new interactive experiences that bring the principles of algorithm design to life. You will work in a small, nimble team to redefine the future of education. We especially encourage applicants with a strong background in computer science education to apply. You will use your pedagogical instincts and taste to expand Brilliant’s library of CS learning games and achieve the best possible outcomes for our learners and our business. You will be joining a passionate and experienced team of entrepreneurial-minded people who are working to make a meaningful impact on the world. To be considered for this role, please include your best example(s) of how you've taught computer science concepts interactively online. Responsibilities Develop hands-on programming courses to teach CS concepts using Brilliant’s Python learning game. Design new learning games — visual, puzzle-driven experiences that teach foundational principles in algorithms, data structures, and computational thinking. Decompose complex computer science ideas (e.g., recursion, backtracking, dynamic programming) into approachable, well-sequenced steps that empower learners to reason from first principles. Design content that is clear, creative, and intuitive — using interactivity to help learners build confidence and mastery. Build immersive, interactive learning experiences that guide learners along problem-solving journeys. Collaborate with product, design, and engineering teams to imagine and create new interactive features, visuals, and mechanics that elevate the learning experience on both computers and phones. You Have an undergraduate degree or above in a STEM field, and you’ve developed a strong grounding through research or teaching that extends beyond traditional curricula. You have used AI agents extensively for coding, and have an opinionated stance on what core concepts are important to teach in the world of agentic coding. Have a knack for teaching complex topics using a progression of clear, simple, hands-on steps. You have experience with building or using interactivity to motivate, engage, and challenge learners, including in asynchronous contexts. Have a way with words, especially when communicating challenging concepts, and your writing skills (in English) are top notch. Are great at context switching and prioritizing among a large workload. Have an openness to change and a willingness to experiment with formats and platforms. Are not afraid to jump into any aspect of a project to fill a vacuum, no matter how big or small. Compensation and Benefits We use a systematic compensation framework: salary scales are set each year for each job vertical, managers level folks on their team, and those levels are mapped directly to our compensation scales. A location-based adjustment is applied outside of SF and NYC (typically 5-10%) - feel free to ask us about your location! Given the systematic approach, we always make First and Best offers - there is no negotiation (for new hires nor our existing teammates). This ensures people are paid based on their expected contribution, not their negotiation skills. We offer top-notch health care plans, with 100% of the premiums covered for medical, dental, and vision for employees. We offer flexible PTO, with a norm of taking off about 6 weeks per year (including federal holidays). We also provide home office equipment, a professional development stipend, and free food at our offices. Our CCPA Privacy Notice can be found here .
