ClassDojo's goal is to give every child on Earth an education they love.
We started by building a powerful network for communication. ClassDojo’s flagship app is the #1 communication app connecting K-12 teachers, children, and families globally. Teachers use it to share what’s happening throughout the day through photos, videos, and messages that make parents feel like they’re there. It’s actively used in over 95% of US schools, reaching over 45 million children in 180 countries, with a team of just around 200 people [1]. We are now beginning to use this network to give kids the best learning experiences in the world, far beyond those a standard school can provide.
We hire for talent density. Our team comprises the most talented, entrepreneurial, and innovative teammates from around the world, with experience in education and large scale consumer internet companies, including Instagram, Netflix, Dropbox, Stripe, Uber, Y Combinator, and more. We’re building a company where the most talented people want to work. We believe you’ll do the best work of your life here—and you’ll pioneer the future of education, too.
What you’ll do:
As the leader of Corporate Finance at ClassDojo, you’ll own and scale the core financial systems and models as well as planning processes that enable ClassDojo’s long-term profitable growth. You’ll be a critical advisor to ClassDojo and our executive team, providing financial insights that shape our long-term trajectory. This is a critical, high-impact role that sits at the center of company-wide financial decision-making—spanning capital allocation decisions, forecasting, budgeting (particularly headcount planning), cost optimization, and board reporting. Additionally, given the multitude of businesses being built on top of our network, you’ll likely have a chance to act as the direct finance partner for several executives and GMs, and go deep within 1-2 segments where there is mutual interest and business need.
You’ll work directly with the CFO, Controller, Revenue Finance leader, and ClassDojo’s executive leadership team. This role will report directly to the CFO and over time will be responsible for building the Corporate Finance team within ClassDojo.
