Who we're looking for

- Experience leading product teams; - A track record of driving results and impacting the business; - Experience in startups - early stage or growth stage -so you're used to dynamic fast-paced environments and making decisions fast with limited data; - Experience leading mobile apps is a big plus - we're creating a new B2C app from scratch; - The ability to bring clarity to chaos, balance short- and long-term bets, and keep the user needs at the center.

We are committed to building a diverse and inclusive team. We welcome applicants from all backgrounds - women, minorities, and individuals from underrepresented groups - to bring your unique perspective to our leadership team.

Why Fluency?

Here you won't just coast and keep things going as they are - you will be directly responsible for innovating and driving growth. We're in the sweet spot to ride the AI wave: we're nimble and fast as a startup while also having strong results, learnings, and existing distribution channels to invest, experiment, and grow fast. We’ll expect you to use our products & our competitors’, and will encourage you to learn a new language or go deeper in one you already know!

We're very connected to the startup and edtech community globally and regularly talk to founders, mentors, and product leaders to shed light on specific challenges we have. We're part of the Endeavor network, General Atlantic is our main investor, and we actively seek opportunities to speed our learning and professional growth.

We have a respectful and collaborative style and strive to build a diverse and safe work environment where people share their points of view openly with candor. Some of us are parents (you'll often see babies and kids in meetings), some just left University, some do volunteering, a lot of us play sports (yes, e-sports count!), and we all care about what we do. We intentionally don't have a big team, so you'll be close to the action, and we believe that's a lot of fun.
