Technical Consultant

At EdSights, we're building the technology for higher education to understand what students are actually thinking and feeling, so they can act before small struggles become big problems. We call it Student Voice Intelligence: engaging students in real-time, AI-powered conversations, uncovering the real drivers of attrition, and delivering those insights to power student success and enrollment workflows.

Today, we partner with 300+ colleges and universities across the country. We're backed by an $80M investment from JMI Equity and are in a phase of rapid execution and expansion. This is an opportunity to do meaningful, hands-on work at a high-growth startup tackling one of higher education's most urgent challenges: helping more students persist from enrollment through graduation.

You’ll join a driven, thoughtful team that values ownership, moves quickly, and cares deeply about building products that make a measurable difference for students.

The Technical Consultant plays a key role in ensuring reliable and scalable data integrations between EdSights and customer institutions. This role owns the technical design, configuration, documentation, and ongoing health of integrations that allow customer data to flow into the EdSights platform and EdSights data to flow into customer systems.

Working consultatively with customer IT teams, the Technical Consultant advises on data mapping, data structure, and integration design to establish secure, reliable data transfers that align with institutional workflows, reporting needs, and long-term sustainability.

Today, the role focuses primarily on SFTP-based data imports and exports, while partnering closely with Implementation, Engineering, Product, Partner Success, and customer IT teams throughout the integration lifecycle. As EdSights' integration capabilities evolve, this role will help shape how we approach and scale integrations beyond our current workflows.

EdSights has built a strong foundation of customer integrations, and this role brings dedicated ownership to that work as we scale. As an early member of an evolving function, the Technical Consultant will help shape the processes, documentation, and best practices that make our integrations reliable, sustainable, and repeatable. We're looking for someone who enjoys solving technical problems, thinks critically and independently, brings strong project management discipline and a bias toward action, and is energized by building process and infrastructure in a role that is still taking shape.
