Support Specialist

Rockstar is recruiting for an innovative edtech company dedicated to transforming how schools approach scheduling. This client was founded by former educators who understand the challenges of building effective school schedules and are passionate about saving educators time while enabling schools to align their schedules with academic, budget, and staffing priorities. Their solution leverages AI optimization and deep domain expertise to help districts and charter leaders unlock resources and build schedules that reflect their vision.

The company was founded to build the tool its founders wished they had when working in schools — aiming to save hundreds of hours of wasted time while helping schools develop better schedules that enable their academic, budget, and staffing priorities.

The solution addresses the needs of school-based employees who toil away building schedules and central office employees who need visibility into them.

The school schedule reflects values and priorities. With 75 to 90% of a district budget dedicated to personnel, there are few questions more paramount than how staff and students spend their time every day, what positions are needed, how many teachers will be hired, and how students will interact with them.

Strategic resource allocation across schools, proper access to core courses and electives, and dedicated support to sub-groups begins with the development of a school schedule.

This platform is a home for secondary scheduling featuring AI optimization and support from a team of former educators who know and have lived scheduling. Not only does it save time and headache, it unlocks resources so district and charter leaders can build a schedule that aligns with their vision.
