**About Brilliant**Brilliant is making a world of great problem solvers. We focus on adults learning quantitative skills - especially in math, data, and CS/AI - and deliver a best-in-class interactive learning experience across web and apps. Our courses teach you what you need to know, while skipping the stuff you don't - so expect more about solving equations, statistical analysis, logical deduction, neural networks, and generative AI, and less about abstract theorems and integrating complicated trig functions.We serve hundreds of thousands of paid subscribers, and we're hoping you might be the right person to contribute to accelerating our footprint to millions of customers (and changed lives). In addition to what's below,We have always prioritized building a healthy business as the backbone of achieving our mission. We are default alive (will be profitable before needing to raise), have never had layoffs, are growing new customers at an exciting pace (high double-digits year-over-year). Our investors are top-tier + mission aligned, and we've kept our valuations tethered to reality - we aren't playing "catch up" like many others.In our day-to-day, we value adventure, excellence, generosity, and candor. We are optimists in the face of uncertainty, we take pride in our work, we go the extra mile for each other, and we tell it like it is (the good and the bad). We're all here to do the best work of our lives together, and have a lot of fun along the way.We believe that real-time collaboration and human connection are necessary ingredients in building a high-velocity, creatively-oriented consumer product.
