NuVu is reimagining K12 education by building the school of the future. NuVu is a place where students and teachers explore ideas outside of disciplinary boundaries and immerse themselves in the innovation process. Under the guidance of designers and experts, middle and high school students solve problems through a critical, rigorous, and iterative process. Our pedagogy is rooted in the architectural design studio but our team has expertise in industrial design, architecture, robotics, engineering, fashion, art, music, filmmaking, and graphic design; this diversity fosters the innovative environment that complements the passion and potential of young learners.

Our studios are managed under our web platform which serves both the back and front end of our studios. The web platform is currently used by over 1,200 architecture and design students at NuVu Studio, Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Wentworth Institute of Technology. We are seeking a software developer to join our team full-time to work on all aspects of the web platform and to join our educational team, teaching software development to our students. An ideal candidate will be able to think holistically about the web platform, both how users and site administrators interact with it and the experience of visitors from the outside.

An ideal candidate is passionate about education and excited about expanding their own knowledge and creativity. All members of our team:

• Bring something unique to our organization: Do you build giant telescopes or robots for fun? Do you enjoy doing magic tricks or ride a unicycle? Are you obsessed with outer space life or other phenomena? If so, you would feel right at home at NuVu!
