Working at Screencastify

At Screencastify, we are results focused and here to improve education globally. This isn’t an easy feat but it is important for our future. We value accountability, commitment, and speed.

We love a challenge and pushing the world forward with creativity, ingenuity and out of the box thinking. People are everything and we want to work in a company of deeply good people who treat their colleagues exceptionally well. Rule #1: Be a good person.

About this role

We built the simplest and most reliable screen recorder in the world, but that’s only the beginning. Our near future is full of ambitious new goals, features, and products that will enable us to further improve how we provide service to our users and accelerate our already fast growth. ​

At Screencastify, the Account Executive is a truly exciting role with potential to propel us into a new phase of growth. While our existing traction and brand reputation will set you up for success, this job will require a great deal of creativity, persistence, and entrepreneurship.

  3. Join us at a magical time. We're bootstrapped, profitable, and support tens of millions of users, which gives us a huge green field to work with. You'll join at the perfect time to shape how we grow from here.
