Our Job of the Week column this week highlights an opening for a full-stack developer with the Newfoundland and Labrador education technology company Clockwork Fox Studios.
St. John’s-based Clockwork Fox focuses on game-based learning. It makes video games that inspire and engage young kids to learn math. It analyzes data from these games to provide teachers and parents with information on the students’s progress. It adds up to a personalized gaming and learning experience.
These games, called Zorbit’s Math Adventure, allow children to proceed at their own pace, and teachers to track their progress and optimize lessons for a classroom of individuals.
The company earlier in the year announced a $1 million funding round led by Killick Capital and Venture Newfoundland and Labrador.
The Jobs of the Week column features openings posted on the Entrevestor Job Board, which focuses on jobs in technology, innovation and startups in Atlantic Canada. The Entrevestor Job Board helps match job openings and candidates in the tech and start-up communities and is operated by Entrevestor and Alongside (formerly Qimple).
