Lead Team Building Platforms That Welcome Millions

Imagine leading the engineering team behind platforms that help students take their first steps into university life or allow employees to start their careers with confidence. That's what you'll do at Advantage.

We're the largest provider of interactive online orientation platforms in North America, serving 400+ institutions including Harvard, UCLA, and Florida State University. Our video-rich platforms welcome over 4.5 million people each year into important life transitions—and we need an experienced engineering leader to guide the talented team that makes it all work.
