About Eduphoria!

Eduphoria! was started with the belief that educators are heroes. Our purpose is to provide educators what they need to become superheroes. By bringing together assessment, curriculum, and professional growth for those closest to the student, educators can gain awareness, make thoughtful changes, and help students thrive.

Our supportive, family-like environment extends to the educators we work with, allowing us to collaborate effectively. We believe in creating a culture where everyone is learning, teaching, and growing.

We Believe

We believe in creating an environment where everyone can learn, teach, and thrive. We want everyone on the team to continually improve themselves and also help others to improve.

We think designers should have all the tools they need to do their best work. We believe technology can be used to improve students' and teachers' lives.

We want designers who have a bias for action, take pride in their craft and love collaborating with others.

Why work at Eduphoria? Here’s what our Employees are saying…

“Being involved throughout the full process of creating tools for educators has exponentially improved my design, communication, and facilitation skills. I am proud to work at Eduphoria because of the positive impact we have on our customers!” — Jojuan, Product Designer

“If you're willing to learn, everyone is always openly willing to give you access to knowledge. Whether it be resources, something that they have learned from their experiences in various companies/positions, or assisting you in finding the information that you seek. This allows me to grow my skill set to not only better serve myself professionally, but to better serve my teammates that require something from ME to do their job. I love that all it takes is asking a question, and you can learn so much here. ” — Ismael, QA Engineer

“Two things I love about working at Eduphoria:

Our mission - We've always cared most about empowering teachers and affecting students' success.

Our culture - I consider the people I work with my friends, not just coworkers. People come on board and stay. We find a balance between flexibility and getting stuff done.” — Jeremy, Sr Engineer
