Nelnet Community Engagement (NCE) is seeking a Team Lead to join our engineering team. Whether you are a seasoned leader, or are looking for your first leadership role, this might be the one for you.

We believe that diversity contributes to a broader collective perspective that will lead to a better company and better products. We seek to continue our diversity journey and we actively encourage everyone (yes, you!) to consider becoming a part of the team. Our 56 person Impact Platform team is presently: 46% women, 32% POC, 11% LGBTQQIP2SAA, 5% veteran, and 21% neurodiverse. 79% of our team falls into at least one of these categories. We want to be a place everyone can belong and thrive.

Our growing, dedicated team works remotely. This full time position is available for all candidates, including remote. If you live in cities where we have a hub (Kansas City, Denver, Salt Lake City, Lincoln, or Madison), and you like occasionally visiting an office, we'll save a desk for you. All candidates need to be eligible to work in the US (Citizen, green card, or other EAD). We have a casual work environment with a collaborative and supportive team dynamic.

No recruiters, staffing firms, or contractors, please.

PS: We've had some deliverability issues with Gmail users lately. If you're using Gmail, please allow all @aware3.com email addresses like this: https://a3a.me/pv9vV to make sure you get all our correspondence.
