About the role
About Aristotle
At Aristotle, we are building the world's first AI tutor — giving every student access to an expert, personal guide. Aristotle provides highly personalized tutoring, complete with memory, personality, consistency, and genuine care.
The Role
We are seeking highly motivated engineers to push the boundaries of LLM-driven educational products. Having raised $5M from leading investors and advisors, we're assembling a team excited to learn, build, and grow rapidly.
Responsibilities
- Build and scale real-time, multimodal tutoring experiences (combining voice, vision, and memory).
- Experiment with LLM-centric harnesses and context-engineering to model student understanding.
- Prototype and evaluate memory systems inspired by cognitive science and cutting-edge agent research.
- Collaborate closely with product and design to craft magical interfaces for students and parents.
- Measure LLM capabilities to assess and improve student learning outcomes across diverse subjects.
Qualifications
- Bachelor's or Master's in Computer Science or a related field.
- Experience building and shipping complex systems end-to-end.
- Proficient in modern full-stack frameworks (TypeScript/Next.js, Node/Python).
- Experience building LLM agents, or an eagerness to learn fast.
You Might Be a Great Fit If...
- You thrive in ambiguous, fast-moving environments where research meets engineering.
- You care deeply about learning and believe AI can make education more human.
- You get excited (not scared) by the challenge of engineering complex systems with unreliable dependencies.
- Learning is part of who you are — you're always picking up something new.
Why Now?
For decades, educators have dreamed of giving every student a personalized tutor. With AI, that vision is within reach. If you're on Team Human, there is no more meaningful or urgent mission to pursue.
