About Our Start-up (“Alice”)
Alice makes personalized learning accessible for students and teachers using the latest in AI. More than 50,000 students across have already used Alice.
In 2025 we joined Y Combinator’s W25 batch in San Francisco, and we raised almost $6m to scale.
Though still small, our team punches above its weight – with backgrounds from Top Universities, McKinsey, PhDs in statistics, 10+ years of teaching, and even Denmark’s top high school GPA.
We’re building a true A-team – because it’s most fun to work with smart, driven people on a mission that matters.
About You
“Pilot, not passenger” – You’re intrinsically driven. There’s no playbook for building Alice.tech, so we define it together. That requires ownership – both literal and figurative.
“Engineer with a capital E” – Startups thrive by shipping fast, but without structure we crash. We need people who master the balance: speed and solid engineering. That’s the heart of the role.
