The Role

Are you a creative and ambitious people-person who is passionate about helping the world learn about genuinely great concepts and products? Do you enjoy working at the edge of innovation, which requires you to devise sometimes-unorthodox methods of getting messages out about inventions that are not yet commonly understood? Is "it hasn't been done before" a challenge that attracts you?

Expii is seeking a versatile marketing and outreach expert to work across several diverse but interconnected divisions of its social enterprise. The unifying character across these divisions is innovation and the creation of world-leading products in each area. You will be working directly with founder Po-Shen Loh across all of these initiatives. He is a famous researcher, educator, and inventor, whose previous efforts have repeatedly landed him in The New York Times, CNN, the Washington Post, and many more.

The challenge is to significantly expand awareness and usage of all three divisions:

  • The Daily Challenge with Po-Shen Loh (https://live.poshenloh.com): the world's best live-video math courses for middle school students, delivered through a new format which blends improvisational comedy with high-level math. Our model introduces a breakthrough solution to the teacher shortage problem, by providing the world's only tailored program for teaching brilliant high school math students magnetic communication skills (at the level of YouTube/Twitch streamers). They then practice those new skills by live-streaming classes to middle school students. This invention stands to transform the math educational landscape.

  • NOVID (https://www.novid.org): the invention of an entirely new way to fight pandemics, which would change the way the world handles all future pandemics. It uses Game Theory to align human incentives so that even selfish behavior contributes to societal control of disease: just let you know how many (anonymous) physical contacts away from you each new infection has struck, and you'll be better able to defend yourself. The concept has already earned the support of multiple established scientists, and appeals to all sides of the political spectrum, as it is based on individual freedom.

  • expii.com: the top Google search result for over 1,000 topics across math and science, with 500K+ monthly visitors during the school year. Through its positioning, this free website has the power to influence the next generation's attitudes towards math and science, to build a society that embraces thinking.

There is no typical work day. The spectrum of opportunities and challenges that arise run the gamut, from media outreach, to communication with scientists, to meeting with government officials (mayors, a national Minister of Health, etc). The ideal candidate is not only an ideas-person, but also rolls up their sleeves and does the work themself.
