🎯 Our Mission
Linus is on a mission to make studying for the SAT fun, free, and effective for all students.
Over 2 million students take the SAT each and every year - the most important test of a young person’s life. But outcomes are highly inequitable, with affluent students able to afford high-priced private tutors while others have to rely on borrowed and out-of-date textbooks.
Linus is determined to close this equity gap and bring effective test prep into the 21st century.
🦄 What sets us apart
🌱 Stage
Linus is a seed-stage company with a v1 product live at https://linusprep.com. We are bringing on a Partnerships & Outreach Lead who will be the first hire focused on growing Linus with schools, college counselors, and educational organizations.
Linus is well-funded by Owl Ventures, the world’s largest edtech investor with $2B AUM.
🤝 Founders & Team
Linus was founded by serial entrepreneurs Niko Vuori and Cory Johnson. They have raised more than $20M in funding from top-tier investors across the companies they have founded and have a successful exit with Rocket Games in 2016. They are joined by a team of early-stage enthusiasts who love going from zero to one (and then blasting way beyond 🚀).
🌈 Opportunity
We’re looking for a Partnerships & Outreach Lead to join our team and take ownership of Linus’s school and organizational outreach strategy. Our Partnerships & Outreach Lead will work closely with the CEO to build relationships with schools, counselors, and educational organizations, making Linus a trusted, widely adopted SAT prep solution that boosts scores while expanding access and equity for students everywhere.

📋 What you’ll work on
Build School & Org Partnerships: You’ll identify and connect with schools, college counselors, and tutoring organizations to introduce Linus as a key SAT prep tool.
Create Tailored Pitches: Develop compelling presentations that resonate with educational decision-makers who might not have big budgets but have a huge impact on students.
Innovate on Outreach: Think creatively about how we can partner with nonprofits, local communities, and tutoring centers to get Linus into more students’ hands.
Serve As Our Voice in the Field: As someone not too far removed from the test-taking experience yourself, you’ll connect authentically with educators and help them see the value in what we’re offering.
💪 You are
Early-Career & High-Energy: Maybe you’ve been in consulting or have experience in education-related roles. You’re comfortable presenting and building relationships.
A Natural Communicator: You can speak the language of educators and understand the needs of students.
Mission-Driven & Adaptable: Just like the rest of us, you care about educational equity and are excited about making a real impact.
Entrepreneurial Spirit: You thrive in ambiguity and love building new things in a scrappy, early-stage environment.
