Working at Coursedog

We follow a fixed contribution model to promote equity and transparency. Every employee receives the same annual dollar amount to apply toward medical, dental, and vision coverage. This approach gives you the flexibility to choose the plan that best fits your needs, whether that is a base-level option or more comprehensive coverage.
Depending on the selected coverage level, the company covers:
We partner with Aetna and Guardian, and offer access to best-in-class wellness and support programs, including:
We also support pre-tax savings through Health Savings Accounts (HSA) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA).
Retirement Planning
To support long-term financial health, we offer a Safe Harbor 401(k) plan from day one of employment. Coursedog provides a 4% employer match on your total compensation (subject to federal limits) each pay period for employees contributing to a tax-advantaged retirement account.
Paid Time Off
We trust our employees to manage their time responsibly. That’s why we offer an unlimited Paid Time Off policy — because flexibility and balance are critical for sustained excellence and personal well-being.
Remote-First Since Inception
We were built for distributed work. Our culture emphasizes flexibility over rigidity, outcomes over hours, and transparency over gatekeeping. We are committed to being a remote-first organization indefinitely, empowering you to work where and how you thrive best.
Equity
As a valued contributor to our collective success, you’ll participate in the upside. All employees are granted equity in the company aligned to your role and tenure. Equity grants are reviewed and adjusted with promotions to reflect your evolving impact.
Paid Parental Leave
Coursedog supports all parents regardless of gender, family structure, or how you became a parent. All parents receive up to 6 weeks of Paid Bonding Leave at 100% of base pay following the birth, adoption, or foster placement of a child. Birthing parents receive an additional 6 weeks of Paid Medical Recovery Leave at 100% of base pay to support physical recovery following childbirth — for a total of up to 12 weeks of fully paid leave.
Powered by Workable
Coursedog builds an integrated SaaS platform for higher education operations. It connects scheduling, curriculum and syllabus management, and online course catalogs with a university’s existing Student Information System (SIS) so data stays in sync in real time. Administrators use the platform to project course demand, automate room assignments, apply scheduling policies, and capture faculty preferences, reducing manual data entry and scheduling conflicts. By offering a single, connected toolset instead of spreadsheets and legacy systems, Coursedog helps colleges and universities run their academic operations more efficiently and support student success. The company earns recurring revenue through a one-time implementation fee plus annual licenses that scale with institution size, and it targets customers from individual schools to large systems like CUNY and BYU. Its goal is to streamline institutional workflows with data-driven analytics to improve scheduling and enrollment outcomes.
