The posting

Position: Senior Project Manager – EdTech Evidence & Insights

Location: Delhi

Founded in 2012, Central Square Foundation is a non-profit philanthropic foundation working with the vision of ensuring quality school education for all children in India. We believe that effective foundational learning is essential for better learning outcomes for all children in school. The development of foundational literacy and numeracy skills by Class 3 can help children progress to higher levels of learning and is an essential building block in a child's life.

We are driven by our mission to enable the school education system to adopt solutions that are scalable, sustainable, and effective, so that all children get equal access to opportunities needed for leading a better life. CSF has prioritised 4 critical areas of work: Foundational Literacy & Numeracy (FLN); EdTech; Early Childhood Education (ECE); and Schools Governance.

Our EdTech vertical leverages technology to enhance teaching and learning through student-focused and teacher-directed interventions. We aim to strengthen India’s EdTech ecosystem by generating evidence on what works, how it works, and how to scale effectively, while supporting product innovation, building public goods, and influencing education policy.

About EdTech at CSF

CSF's EdTech initiative focuses on leveraging technology to enhance teaching and learning, both in classrooms and at home, through student-focused and teacher-directed interventions. Our goal is to improve foundational learning in primary grades and provide remediation support in middle school using evidence-based, scalable technology solutions.

Since 2012, CSF has played a pivotal role in shaping India's EdTech ecosystem by bridging demand and supply, backed by rigorous research. We drive impact by:

  • Supporting EdTech organisations to build contextually relevant, pedagogically sound products for low-income learners.
  • Generating evidence on what works, how it works, and how to scale effective EdTech interventions.
  • Partnering with governments to implement EdTech solutions and influence policy.
  • Funding public goods to drive innovation and strengthen the ecosystem.

In the last five years, CSF has collaborated with 15+ EdTech organisations, 11+ state governments, and leading academic institutions, reaching 2.5 million learners across India.

Join us to shape the future of learning for India’s children—and help build an EdTech ecosystem that is evidence-driven, tech-enabled, scalable, and equitable.
