About Magma Math

Magma is one of the world’s fastest-growing and most celebrated edtech companies, transforming math education through the power of AI. Our platform turns handwritten solutions into digital insights, empowering teachers to focus on creativity and deeper learning — while giving them real-time visibility into student progress.

The result? More inclusive, engaging, and effective math classrooms for all learners.

But we’re not just building better tools. We’re tackling one of the biggest challenges in global education: math underperformance. With 1 in 5 students globally struggling in math — a subject that forms the backbone of so many career paths — we believe the opportunity to improve outcomes at scale is massive.

We’re already the go-to solution in thousands of schools — and we’re just getting started. As we expand rapidly across the U.S. and Europe, we’re building a team as ambitious as our mission: to help millions of students unlock their full potential in math.

About the Role

As Professional Learning Manager, you will oversee a shifting and growing initiative at Magma Math in collaboration with our Director of Learning and Teaching. We believe very strongly in the power of educating our district teachers, coaches, and leaders about using Magma Math in the classroom to promote meaningful mathematical discourse. As we grow, we are looking to formalize the Professional Learning function and content we present to drive better outcomes with our districts and to meet the demands of our customer base.

Your primary mission is to create meaningful content that drives successful long term use of Magma Math. Content should focus on a diverse range of topics, both with a high level pedagogical focus on practices like Building Thinking Classrooms and The Five Practices and a low level focus on research-informed best practices in general and with different use cases like small group instruction, model lesson planning, and entry points for classroom discourse. All sessions should be developed through the lens of driving success using the Magma Math platform.

In addition to content development, you will also be responsible for presenting it to partner districts during Professional Learning engagements across the U.S. You may also join Customer Success Managers or for customers onboardings and professional learning sessions they run or that are jointly owned as well as classroom visits with district partners to model effective use of the Magma Math platform.

Primary Responsibilities

• Develop compelling content centered around effective use of Magma Math centered in the pedagogical lens of Building Thinking Classrooms and The Five Practices.
• Deliver onboarding and professional learning sessions to Magma Math’s district partners, both in person and virtually.
• Visit district partner classrooms to observe teachers’ use of the Magma Math platform. Work with teachers and coaches to offer best practices, and model successful use of the platform in a classroom setting.
• Partner closely with Customer Success and other teams to develop and share ideas and information regarding professional learning and district partners, ensuring our professional learning sessions are successful.
• Encourage and support satisfied customers to become advocates, such as participating in case studies and testimonials.
• Gather customer feedback and insights to inform product development and improvement.
• Identify trends and opportunities for improvement in professional learning and use of the platform.
