The posting

Read the overview on our job board page before you apply: https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/theacademysf

We’re looking for a Dean of Education to design and run a new kind of educational model at the Horowitz Andreessen Academy that’s completely distinct from any other major college - and that’s driven by students.

Our goal at the Academy is to help students cultivate four key attributes:

  • High Agency
  • AI-Native Building
  • People Skills
  • Ambition

Your job is to figure out how to get students to develop these traits at HAA. Not through traditional lectures, tests, grades, or homework - but through allowing students to create their own challenges and projects, and setting an extraordinarily high bar.

This role is part educational philosopher, part culture-builder, part coach. There isn’t a playbook for this type of educational model yet, so you’ll build it from the ground up.

In this role, you will:

  • Design the structures that let students direct their own learning - e.g. standups, peer review, mentorship touchpoints
  • Figure out how to set a high bar for student work and output, through peer norms and osmosis - instead of through enforcement
  • Coach and mentor students directly, pushing them to think bigger and take on harder challenges while also knowing when to step back
  • Hire, train, or manage instructors and mentors across disciplines
  • Define how the school will assess student growth - especially on traits that, by design, can't be tested or graded

If you’re excited by this vision and challenge, sketch out a version of how you would do this - and include it in your application.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
