Mobile Engineering Manager

At Goodnotes, we’ve always been passionate about helping learners think, create, and understand better through handwritten notes. Our app is already the go-to choice for students who rely on handwriting to learn deeply and retain knowledge. But learning doesn’t just happen in isolation, it happens in classrooms, where teachers and students come together around shared ideas, challenges, and discoveries.
That’s why we’re expanding our focus from individual note-taking to the classroom experience. We see a powerful opportunity to empower teachers and students alike by making in-class learning more engaging, accessible, and effective.
