About Odyssey
Odyssey is a mission driven company that helps families easily access state funding so that they can attend the school of their choice. We do this by partnering with state agencies to administer school choice programs, such as education savings accounts (ESAs), that enable parents to pay for approved educational expenses like school tuition, tutors, technology, software, and curriculum. At Odyssey, our technology powers ESA programs that enroll more than 80,000 students and help them access more than $600 million in state funding. In the 2026-2027 school year, Odyssey will enable 235,000 students to receive more than $2 billion in school choice funding. Sitting at the intersection of tech, government, and education, Odyssey offers potential employees an immediate and substantive impact for students and families. Supported by well known investors and advisors (Katherine Boyle/A16Z/Tusk Venture Partners) Odyssey is gaining traction quickly with ample opportunity for growth. As our team expands, we are looking for top-tier talent to join our mission in driving the future of education forward. Want to join us? Get in touch at careers@withodyssey.com.
