About the Team

eLumin improves student access to vital, course-required applications and data through its cloud-based virtual learning environment. eLumin is founded on the belief that technology should never get in the way of life, learning, or accomplishment, and that a student’s ability to work, learn, and interact should extend beyond the bounds of a traditional campus. If you are passionate about social impact, are open to a remote role, and are excited by the opportunity to help establish the early foundations of SaaS applications, then this might be the team for you.
