Harvard President Drew Faust said, “edX gives Harvard and MIT an unprecedented opportunity to dramatically extend our collective reach by conducting groundbreaking research into effective education and by extending online access to quality higher education.”


We are currently looking for

Technology Team

[Looking for both back-end and front-end developers. Strong backgrounds in machine learning, education, user interaction design, big data, or social network analysis are desirable, but team members do wear many hats. Best candidate would be a masterful hacker who went and did startups after finishing their Ph.D. We should find a way to make some positions that parallel fellows, and can leverage MIT/Harvard prestige]

If you're interested in this position, send an e-mail to content-engineer@edx.org

edX Fellow

The edX fellows program is intended as an alternative to the traditional academic track for candidates with a strong focus on teaching. Fellows act as contact points for departments at MIT and Harvard, and help facilitate putting together on-line courses.

If you're interested in this position, send an e-mail to fellow-jobs@edx.org

Content Engineer

Content engineers help create the technology for specific courses. The tasks include:

  • Development of course-specific user-facing elements, such as the circuit editor and simulator that Chris Terman and Jacob White developed for 6.002x

  • Simple integration of course materials into courses

  • Developing programs to grade rich design questions, such as the ones developed by Gerald Sussman to allow basic design problems in 6.002x.

Knowledge of Python, XML, and/or JavaScript is desired. Strong interest and background in pedagogy and education is desired as well.
