Los Angeles, United States Chan Zuckerberg Initiative Full time

The Chan Zuckerberg Initiative was founded by Priscilla Chan and Mark Zuckerberg in 2015 to help solve some of society’s toughest challenges — from eradicating disease and improving education to addressing the needs of our local communities. Our mission is to build a more inclusive, just, and healthy future for everyone.

The CZI Education Team At CZI, we pair technology with grantmaking to equip educators, families, and students with tools that integrate high-quality research, practices, and content to unlock the full potential of every student, no matter who they are or where they live. From program conception to software feature design, we center our work on student and educator voices to help educators address the day-to-day challenges in their classrooms.

Since 2015, our grant investments have helped catalyze new education tools, classroom practices, and measures of student success designed to foster whole child outcomes. We leveraged technology to provide research-based practices in products that help teachers connect with students and tailor learning experiences to individual student needs.

At our core, we are builders, and our unique builder philanthropy approach sets us apart from other education funders. A look back on the highlights and significant milestones of CZI’s first eight years of education work can be found
