About Innovamat 🚀

Innovamat is the leading global K-12 edtech startup that brings the cutting-edge science of math learning and teaching to the classroom. We have built a unique PreK-8 math curriculum, backed by robust research and loved by 18,000+ teachers worldwide, to structurally change the way students learn by leaving the textbook and workbook behind.

Join our US team as a core expansion team member to build world-class math classrooms with students ready for the future. Our all-in-one product ecosystem offers a range of resources from manipulatives to a self-adaptive practice app so teachers can focus on what they do best: facilitate and develop students (instead of lecturing and wasting time on non-pedagogical tasks).

To date, we have reached 2,300+ schools with more than 490,000+ students and 21,500+ teachers who love to work with the Innovamat curriculum. We are headquartered in Barcelona, Spain, and have offices across our countries. In the US, we are a hybrid team with members in New York, California, and growing in Chicago and other locations. Our school network is already in 5 states and growing every month.
