Who we are

SmartPass helps K-12 staff coordinate student movement throughout the school day. Rotating classes, pull-out interventions, and counseling sessions are just a few examples of managing traffic and teacher capacity. SmartPass unlocks communication across classrooms and increases safety to ensure everyone can focus on learning instead of logistics.

Today, SmartPass serves over 2 million students in 1,000+ schools in 6 countries to maximize instructional time and improve student outcomes. SmartPass is on-track to be one of the fastest-growing startups in K-12. And we’re just getting started.

We’re backed by the leading investors in K-12 Edtech, including Reach Capital, Edovate Capital, Precursor Ventures, the founder of SchoolMint, and more. Currently, the team is 41 people.

Role overview

As our first PM, you’ll help build new features and brand-new products that maximize student instructional time for 2 million+ educators and students (~1 million WAUs today). Your role involves close collaboration with the entire EPD team — design (2 designers), engineering (~9 engineers) and cross-functional stakeholders. You’ll report to our CEO & Co-founder, a former PM at Salesforce & Quip. The estimated salary range for this role is $180,000 - $250,000 per year.

In the first few months, you’ll get your hands dirty right away (just a few examples):

• You’ll be given a micro-problem, work with design/engineering on a solution, and get your first quick-win.
• You’ll work on defining the strategy for our Flex product.
• You’ll do a listening tour: visiting schools, sitting on customer calls, reading thousands of user-submitted feedback.
• You’ll work with our Director of Customer Success to redesign the onboarding flow for new schools.

We’re looking for folks with:

• You have 5+ years of industry product management experience.
• 🏫 K-12 Experience: You’ve built products for K-12 and/or have worked in a K-12 school.
• Wicked prioritization skills. We serve 4 very different end-users: students, teachers, admins, and parents.
