Hire senior edtech developers and AI pod teams

Senior engineers who build learning platforms, LMS integrations, assessment tools and AI tutoring features for schools, universities and workforce learning.

Hiring edtech developers through Ryz gets you senior engineers who have built learning platforms that teachers, students and administrators actually use. They are top 1% of the engineers we interview, they work on your team and in your repos, and they work on US business hours. For AI tutoring, feedback or content tools, we staff dedicated AI pod teams.

What we build for edtech teams

Edtech has its own rhythm and its own constraints. Usage spikes at the start of each term, products must plug into the systems schools already run, and student data carries legal protections that shape every design choice. K-12 companies, higher education platforms, online course providers and corporate learning teams need engineers who know that ground. Our engineers work on:

Our AI pod teams have shipped conversational AI in production, including an AI driver-support agent that works in three languages and an AI voice platform that has placed more than 1M outbound calls. That experience carries over to multilingual tutoring and student support. See our case studies.

Domain skills we vet for

Ryz does not certify FERPA, COPPA or accessibility compliance. Our engineers have experience working within these requirements and build alongside your privacy and legal teams.

Staff augmentation or an AI pod team?

Staff augmentation fits when you need more senior engineers before the next school year: an integrations engineer to add LMS partners, a front-end developer for an accessibility overhaul or a mobile developer for your student app. They join your squads and roadmap.

An AI pod team fits when you want an AI capability built and evaluated properly, such as a tutor that follows your pedagogy, automated feedback on student writing or question generation for your item library. The pod is a dedicated team with a tech lead, ML and backend engineers that works in your cloud, keeps teachers in control and ships weekly.

Why Latin American engineers

Latin America has a busy edtech scene, from online universities to coding schools and language learning, and many senior engineers have built learning products for large, diverse audiences. Spanish and Portuguese skills help when you serve multilingual learners or plan to expand into Latin American markets.

School days and support hours follow US time. Engineers on your business hours can fix a rostering sync before first period, join calls with district IT teams and ship fixes while teachers are still in class.

Have your engineers built LTI integrations?

We match on it. Tell us which LMSs and rostering systems you support, and we shortlist engineers who have built and maintained those integrations.

Yes. Pods design guardrails, evaluation sets and teacher visibility from the start, and build in your cloud so student data stays in your environment.

How much does it cost to hire edtech developers?

$7,000 to $15,000 per engineer per month, scoped per team. You get a plan, a price and the names of the people who would do the work before you sign.
