Our goal is to amplify that power by creating intuitive products that simplify learning and personal development, facilitate meaningful relationships, and inspire people to go further in their educations and careers. We do this by giving smart, creative, passionate people opportunities to create awesome products and tools.

- Building and maintaining platforms and services that are force multipliers used by internal teams.
- Developing and maintaining methodologies of iteratively deploying Instructure’s cloud-based architecture.
