Ready for the best job in the world!

We at Buddy.ai are leading the AI revolution in early learning. Our mission is to make 1X1 tutoring available for every child worldwide and help resolve the global teacher shortage. Here’s what sets our company apart:

  • Unique product: At Buddy.ai, we are pioneering the Multimodal AI Tutoring approach, which means our tutor is a virtual character that uses voice recognition and conversational AI to teach children. Buddy is the first product of its kind, so we innovate, brainstorm, prototype, playtest on children in a lab, and AB test using real users.
  • The leading consumer AI company in the early learning space: We have millions of users, and that number doubles year after year. Buddy is not another ChatGPT wrapper; we are developing proprietary AI technology for children that’s safe, fast, and compliant with COPPA and other regulations.
  • Mission-driven project: Our Company is inspired by our team’s experiences as immigrants and parents, as well as those of our children.
  • Impact and love: It’s a great feeling knowing that you are building an educational product that helps children thrive. You can always draw inspiration and satisfaction from the love of Buddy’s users.
  • Perfect job for Moms and Dads: Many (in fact, most) of our team members are parents. We draw inspiration from our children’s experiences with Buddy.ai. It is a special feeling when your child admiringly asks, “Mom, did you really create Buddy?”
  • Friendly, open, and informal work environment: Our small (but growing) team is horizontally structured. All product and financial metrics are openly discussed because we work collaboratively and share everything. No politics, no BS — we work hard and have a lot of fun in the process.
  • 100% Remote work with a flexible schedule/Generous paid sick leave and vacation days.

Join us in our mission to provide high-quality 1X1 tutoring to every child worldwide using AI!
