Neoboard is the Education Technology startup based in the Inland Empire that develops LMS applications with the primary goal of empowering students and faculty to have more informed discussions around student retention and aiding underrepresented students. Our team is accomplishing this by centralizing all of the technologies utilized in the classroom (Discord, Groupme, Zoom, Canvas, etc.) and allowing the systems to communicate with one another through a simple IFTTT protocol set up by faculty. This high impact technology has a low learning curve that requires little involvement for faculty while both providing support for students struggling in the course, and centralizing the data provided by the systems for the purposes of accreditation for the administration.
We are looking for a UI/UX Designer to work as part of our team to design components of the Neoboard application for delivering the best online user experience to students and faculty. This includes developing UI mockups and clickable prototypes that clearly illustrate how sites function and look like, and communicating with potential users for feedback. If you’re a self-driven team player and motivated to make the world of education a better place – join us! We provide full guidance and support in your professional growth.
