Curriculum Growth Manager
About the role
COMPANY PROFILE
Code.org is an education innovation nonprofit dedicated to the vision that every student in every school has the opportunity to learn about artificial intelligence (AI) and computer science (CS) as part of their core K-12 education. We increase participation in AI+CS education by reaching students of all backgrounds where they are — at their skill level, in their schools, and in ways that inspire them to keep learning, with a focus on increasing participation by young women and students from other underrepresented groups. The leading provider of K-12 AI+CS education curriculum across the globe, Code.org also organizes the annual Hour of AI campaign, building on the legacy of the Hour of Code, which has engaged more than 15% of all students in the world!
A unifying approach in a divided world
Code.org's global role in the K-12 computer science movement is only possible because we use a unifying approach across diverse and often divided stakeholders. At a time of increasing polarization, the idea of increasing opportunity for students unites people from across the political spectrum. Code.org's team members, students, teachers, and supporters have diverse and diverging view points, and they are all welcome in our mission.
JOB SUMMARY
As a Curriculum Growth Manager, you are responsible for driving district and state-level adoption of Code.org’s curriculum across your assigned territory. You will build and manage a regional pipeline of district opportunities, engage superintendents and other district or state administrators, and secure formal commitments to implement Code.org’s curriculum.
You will leverage policy developments, tentpole campaigns, budget cycles, and champion networks to accelerate adoption — then ensure a smooth handoff to the Implementation & Success team for rollout. Success in this role means growing the number of districts and schools actively implementing Code.org's curriculum within your territory.

- Convert engagement moments such as Hour of AI or CS Education Week into deeper district adoption conversations
- Expand adoption within existing districts, moving systems from partial implementation to broader K–12 pathways
- Re-engage districts that previously used Code.org curriculum but are no longer active
