Wonderschool’s mission is to ensure every child has access to early childhood education that helps them realize their full potential. We empower small business owners—childcare providers—to launch and grow programs through software, coaching, and support, while partnering with governments to modernize childcare infrastructure.
We are building a category-defining platform at the intersection of marketplace, SaaS, and public sector systems—now increasingly powered by AI. Our products help providers run and grow their businesses, from enrollment and marketing to licensing, compliance, and daily operations.
Our team is small, fast-moving, and deeply focused on building systems that scale. We value people who take ownership, experiment quickly, and use modern tools—including AI and automation—to increase their leverage and impact.
This role builds the core systems that power Wonderschool’s platform—enabling providers to launch and grow their businesses, governments to operate programs at scale, and families to access care. As a Senior Full Stack Engineer, you will own features end-to-end, working across frontend, backend, and data layers to deliver high-quality, scalable products.
You will operate as a builder, partnering closely with product, design, and go-to-market teams to turn real-world problems into simple, effective solutions. Success in this role means shipping quickly, improving system reliability, and leveraging modern tools—including AI—to increase development velocity and product impact.

Wonderschool is an AI-powered marketplace solving the child care crisis by connecting governments, providers, parents, teachers, and nonprofits on one integrated platform.
There is a nationwide shortage of child care and preschool options, and we believe one of the most effective ways to expand access is by helping teachers and caregivers start and grow successful programs—especially home-based child care businesses.
For providers, Wonderschool offers comprehensive support to launch and operate high-quality programs. We assist with licensing, classroom setup, pricing strategy, website creation, enrollment support, daily operations, and more. Our platform is designed to let educators focus on what they do best: caring for and educating children.
For governments, we offer AI-powered tools to help manage and expand early education ecosystems. Our technology helps states and municipalities identify child care deserts, support local providers, increase quality, and ensure families can access programs that meet their needs. By unifying data, services, and funding mechanisms, we help public agencies scale solutions effectively and equitably.
We are proud to partner with leaders across sectors—from families and educators to policymakers and nonprofits—to create a future where every child has access to early learning.
