About The Position

Kiddom is transforming K–12 education by bringing high-quality curriculum, instructional tools, and student analytics together in one coherent system. We are building Learning Intelligence Technology (LIT), a new category that gives educators the infrastructure to plan, teach, assess, and respond to student needs.

Kiddom helps schools and districts deliver more equitable, effective, and adaptive learning experiences. We're looking for a Senior Product Manager to set the vision for AI at Kiddom, shaping how personalization, insights, and automation transform teaching and learning.
