Primer is a growing network of K–8 schools restoring the timeless foundations of American education. Inspired by the original teaching primers that shaped a nation of readers, thinkers, and builders, our schools begin with what has always worked, and build for what lies ahead. Close-knit learning environments. Skilled educators. A culture that takes kids seriously as learners and leaders.
Primers shaped the first 200 years of American children. Primer will ready them for the next.
The software we build powers our Microschools end-to-end. From day one it helps teachers source real estate, recruit students, and provide an (actually) personalized education to every student. It offers rich insights to parents, enables virtual teachers to deliver exceptional experiences, and runs our back-office operations stack. We have a huge surface area to cover and a lot of hard work in front of us.
We’re building a small team of exceptional, hands-on engineers to play a critical role in building Primer.
We are seeking a talented Full Stack Engineer to join our team. In this role, you will be responsible for helping redesign the school experience around modern technology. You will build features that teachers, students, and families will rely on every day, while solving real-world problems in education.
This role is based in San Francisco and is in office 5x per week.
Tech stack: Work with TypeScript, NodeJS, GraphQL, Prisma, Postgres, NextJS, React, and Relay.
Collaborative environment: You’ll work daily with team members from engineering, product, design, and our academic program.
Ownership & growth: Take full ownership of projects and expand your skills. You’ll have the opportunity to lead initiatives that shape the entire product, with room to learn and grow along the way.
Engineering culture: Play a key role in setting the foundation for our engineering culture as we grow the team.
Build quality product: We set a high bar for quality, so expect to work hard to deliver excellence.
Passion for education: You have an unbridled passion for fixing the US education system. This work is incredibly hard. But if we succeed, it will be the most fulfilling work of our lives. On the days and weeks that it feels like we’re chewing glass, there are only two things that will get you through: a deep passion for fixing this problem, and looking around and seeing a team that shares that passion. We can guarantee the latter, but only you can guarantee the former.
Thrives in the unknown: The unknowns of the early-stage fuel you. You love rolling up your sleeves and figuring out what needs to happen.
Engineering fundamentals: You have a strong grasp of engineering fundamentals and know how to apply them in real-world situations.
Pride in craftsmanship: You take immense pride in your craft. Watching a session replay of a user having a bad experience with product you built makes you sick. Every detail matters.
Building from zero: You have experience and love owning a feature or product from idea to live in production with active users.
Competitive salary plus equity
Benefits: Generous health, dental, vision, and retirement benefits included.

We believe something quite simple: your zip code shouldn’t determine the quality of your education. The Primer Foundation exists to ensure this is the last generation for whom that's true. We help make Primer accessible to every family, regardless of income — and ensure we never turn a family away because of their ability to pay.
We’re bringing on a frontline fundraiser to work hand-in-hand with the Head of the Foundation to grow giving to the foundation.
We have a strong foundation (heh!) to build on. We’ve raised seven figures of donations in our first 18 months and have received gifts and recognition from leaders in the education philanthropy community. In 2024, Primer was named the Yass Prize Winner - often equated to winning 'Best Picture' at the Oscars.
You’ll be responsible for all aspects of growing a portfolio of major donors - sourcing, cultivating, soliciting, stewarding and renewal with both traditional and nontraditional donors.
We’re looking for someone who is entrepreneurial and has experience growing a major gifts portfolio. You’re a strategist who can think big picture and you’re willing to roll up your sleeves and do the work. You understand the foundational principles of philanthropy, are a creative thinker and a strong implementer. We won’t solve society’s most pressing issue by sitting back - it will take us boldly and unapologetically moving resources into the space to create the education system that the next generation deserves.
Create and own a portfolio of major gift donors including identification, cultivation, solicitation, stewardship and renewal.
Build out and run a mid-level giving program to create a stronger pipeline of donors.
Serve as a face of Primer to donors and community members building strategic relationships and representing Primer at key events.
Manage stakeholder communications toward increased awareness and engagement leading to gift renewals and increased gifts.
History of closing five (and ideally six)-figure gifts and meeting or exceeding increasing fundraising goals
Experience building relationships toward increased gifts; bonus points if you have experience growing a donor base at a new organization
Past fundraising experience with education-related causes
Work experience within a fast-growing organization is a plus

Primers shaped the first 200 years of American children. Primer will ready them for the next.
As an Admissions Representative, you'll be the human face of Primer for prospective families — the person who meets them where they are, earns their trust, and helps them understand why Primer is different.
We're building education for every family in America, not just the ones who find us easily. That means showing up in person, adapting to family schedules, and doing the relationship-building work that makes enrollment feel personal rather than transactional. You'll report to the Head of Admissions while working closely with the local GM to support campus growth from day one.
This role isn't about pushing a product. It's about helping families make one of the most important decisions they'll make for their kids — with honesty, care, and genuine follow-through.
Conduct in-person parent meetings with prospective families, meeting them at times and locations that work for them.
Host campus tours and open houses in collaboration with campus staff, so educators can stay focused on students instead of spending extra hours on admissions-driven activities.
Represent Primer at community events, building authentic local presence and trust.
Maintain rigorous scheduling, communication, and follow-up in Salesforce/Groove — full alignment with central admissions processes is non-negotiable.
Serve as a local ambassador for Primer, helping every family feel genuinely welcomed and informed as they explore enrollment.
Surface patterns from family conversations back to the central admissions team — if you're hearing the same objections or questions repeatedly, that's signal worth sharing.
Sales, admissions, or customer-facing experience — ideally in an educational setting — with a track record of building relationships and hitting goals.
Comfort with CRM and sales engagement platforms (Salesforce/Groove experience a plus).
Strong communication and presentation skills; you can read the room and adjust for a first-generation family as easily as you can for a well-resourced one.
Genuine ease with in-person relationship-building — you're energized by community, not drained by it.
The discipline to work autonomously on the ground while staying tightly aligned with centralized leadership and process.
Flexibility to work some evenings and weekends to meet families where their lives are.
A collaborative instinct — you work well across functions and know when to loop in the GM, when to loop in admissions, and when to just handle it.
Deep alignment with Primer's mission: accessible, affordable, excellent education for every family in America.
You're most comfortable when leads come to you — this role requires active outreach and community presence.
You prefer to work within a large, stable team structure rather than operate as a local point of contact with distributed support.
You find it difficult to hold the line on process (Salesforce hygiene, follow-up cadences) when things get busy.
You believe great admissions is primarily a marketing or brand problem; we think it's a relationship and trust problem.
You'd struggle representing a model that's still evolving — Primer is building something new, and you need to be honest with families about that.

You might spend your morning working with the real estate team to evaluate a new location, your mid-day modeling active monitoring for new Primer Leaders and providing live feedback, your afternoon re-designing the pickup/drop-off plan for an existing campus, and your early evening hosting an Open House at a new campus.
As our footprint in Florida grows, this role will continue to evolve and you will evolve with it. What we're trying to do is extremely hard – there's a reason it hasn't been done before. There's a good chance this role will be the hardest work of your life. If you find that slightly-daunting-but-exciting, this might be the role for you.
Ensure Primers across Florida are meeting the Primer standard across all dimensions, from the academic program to campus operations.
Partner with real estate, education, operations, marketing, and admissions teams to ensure the success of every Primer within a region of Florida.
Drive student growth by testing new local strategies. When they work, you'll help playbook the ideas so they can be leveraged in every city.
Own many of Primer's local relationships, including families and leaders in the education community.
You're a builder and self-starter. You don't need to be told what to do. You have experience navigating ambiguity and creating scalable systems out of chaos.
You can execute at a fast pace while holding a high bar for quality. This may sound a bit cliche, but it's incredibly important.
Must have experience in education leadership, ideally within a physical school environment as a Superintendent, Assistant Superintendent, or Principal.
Past accountability to aggressive growth, revenue, margin, and expansion targets.
Proven ability to build strong relationships both internally and externally.
A generalist willing to roll up their sleeves and get stuff done – both in the weeds and at the strategic level.
Experience disrupting the status quo - either with new school models, new policies, or something else that removes constraints and drives innovation.
You do your best work in structured environments. There is no established playbook here — for the role or the company. You'll be writing it while strategy shifts and priorities evolve around you. If that sounds exhausting rather than energizing, this isn't the right fit right now.
You prefer to specialize. This role demands genuine comfort toggling between strategic decisions and operational detail — sometimes in the same hour. If you'd rather go deep on one function, this won't feel like a fit.
You prefer a fully remote, hands off environment. Primer is a consumer-facing education business. Evenings, weekends, and nontraditional hours — Travel and attendance to open houses, school events, parent meetings — are part of the rhythm, not the exception.
Primer is a mission-first company. We believe our mission is the highest-leverage way we can create positive change. In service of that, we keep work centered on mission execution and avoid social or political activism at work that’s unrelated to the mission. If that energizes you, we’d love to see you apply.
