The Company

Aplia is revolutionizing how college students learn. The company, based in San Carlos off Hwy-101, creates and publishes online problem sets, experiments, and other innovative tools to aid students in college-level courses. Our tools have helped more than 800,000 students at 850+ institutions to date, and we anticipate continued high growth in the coming years. We are a brainy, creative, and lively group that maintains a fast-paced, forward-thinking, teamwork-oriented environment. We\'re looking for like-minded individuals to join our outstanding Content Development Team.

The Position

As a Content Developer at Aplia, you will write and review online teaching materials for undergraduate economics courses. In addition to authoring new teaching materials, you will become very familiar with all of Aplia\'s existing content, and will be able to advise our sales representatives on any content-related questions as well as help answer content-related support questions from students and professors.

We are interested in applicants who have taken courses in economics at least through intermediate microeconomics and intermediate macroeconomics. Courses in finance, accounting, math, and statistics are also a plus. Excellent grades are essential. However, candidates who have taken difficult courses and received good grades will be more attractive than students who have taken easy courses and received excellent grades. Good writing skills are also important, and the applicant must also be comfortable with computers and applications software.

This is a full-time position. As an Aplia employee, you\'ll have a tremendous amount of growth and exploration potential. Some who have started with us have worked their way up into management and technical positions in the organization. Others stay for a few years and then go on to graduate school û for example, the econ PhD program at the University of Chicago and the MBA program at USC.
