Think Academy is building a serious math competition program in the Bay Area and is seeking former AIME qualifiers, USAMO participants, or top AMC performers to join our team. This is not a tutoring position. We are looking for individuals who have competed at a high level and understand competition mathematics from the inside — rigor, structure, and standards.
Who Should Apply

- Or proven track record coaching students to AIME
- Strong command of algebra, number theory, combinatorics, and geometry
- Ability to lead structured, in-person group classes
Job Description
- Teach AMC 8/10/12/ Olympiad in-person group classes in San Jose
- Train students toward AIME and advanced distinction
- Contribute to curriculum standards and competition pathway design
High-performing coaches will have the opportunity to grow into Competition Program Lead or Academic Director roles.
Why Think Academy U.S
Think Academy US is a wholly owned subsidiary of TAL Education Group (NYSE: TAL), serving millions of students globally.

This role is an entry point into a serious, high-performance academic team with long-term leadership opportunity.
If you have competed seriously and want to build serious competitors, we encourage you to apply.
Visa sponsorship record
No public sponsorship records foundWe didn't find H-1B, H-1B1, E-3 or green card (PERM) filings under the name Think Academy US in the Department of Labor and USCIS data. That doesn't mean the job can't be sponsored — the company may file under a different legal name, be new to sponsorship, or sponsor a visa that isn't in these datasets (for example H-2B or J-1).
Tip: ask the recruiter early, in writing, which visa they sponsor and whether they cover the legal and filing fees.
