What Motivates Us

Clever is motivated by our vision to advance technology that works for students everywhere. By securely connecting the data and applications that schools rely on, we know we can foster safe, secure, and fun learning experiences for students and educators.

Our culture tenets

Clever is a group project

Clever succeeds because everyone on the team understands that it takes every person in every role to deliver a great experience for our partners and districts.

Always a student

Clever is a team of lifelong learners. Cleverites love it when their work allows them to learn new things, but they also love to share what they’ve learned with others—they eagerly teach new skills to teammates and help others improve.

Don’t trust the textbook

Clever is able to iterate and improve because Cleverites constantly question how we should be doing things. We “don’t trust the textbook” because we understand the importance of questioning, experimenting, and coming up with new solutions.

Make it matter

Cleverites join Clever because they are passionate about driving change within the educational ecosystem. This passion drives us all to search for ways to create a larger impact with our work.

Equity for all

Clever believes that the classrooms we serve and our company’s halls should be spaces that are diverse, equitable, and inclusive.

Peter Nga

Software Engineer

I love building things. Even as a manager, I still get to build things, and it’s important as a manager to stay in the code. Since I do both, manage and code, I get to see how collaborative Clever is across the sales, success, and engineering teams. You can go downstairs to talk to someone on the solutions team or they can stop by and have a direct conversation with you. Open dialog is welcomed and encouraged.

Want to help tackle the tough issues that have troubled the education system for decades? Join us and have some fun while making a positive impact!

Company Retreats

Every year, Cleverites come together for Camp Clever, a company tradition where we recharge, bond, and gear up for our busiest season: Back to School. Here, we unplug, enjoy unforgettable events and strengthen our work relationships.

Likewise, our Winter Rally is an annual event where you’ll connect with your teammates, gain insights into our goals, and commit to making a meaningful difference.

Remote-Friendly Workplace

We’re keeping our San Francisco (HQ) office available to the folks who value an in-office experience while embracing team members who prefer to work in a remote setting. It’s a flexible model that works for everyone.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

We believe that becoming a truly equitable and inclusive organization is evolving work that lasts a lifetime.

Your authentic self belongs

When we create an environment where everyone feels included, supported, and appreciated, we can achieve incredible things together! One of the ways we’re making this happen is through our employee resource groups (ERGs). These groups give us a chance to connect, learn, and open our minds to new possibilities.
