About the role

The org's own posting, as written

CodePath is the largest educator of college computer science students in the country. We've trained over 40,000 students from 1,000+ universities, and our partners include Amazon, Google, and other leading technology companies. We've spent nearly a decade training the next generation of technical talent, and we just launched a $150M initiative with Anthropic, building one of the most ambitious AI workforce programs in the world. We're now expanding into new markets and scaling our team so we can move at the speed AI is transforming the workforce. People joining CodePath now will have the opportunity to help architect the next frontier of our work.

We believe technical skill is the fastest way to turn raw talent into real opportunity. We train the engineers the AI era runs on, building toward millions of learners, hundreds of millions in revenue, and billions in economic impact. If you want to own something and be part of a 0-to-1 journey at an organization moving at the speed of AI, this is the place to build it.

About the Role

Location: Remote (US) Role Type: Full-Time Contractor (40 hours/week) Duration: 9-month contract Reports To: Sr. Manager, Development Operations Compensation: $7,000–9,200 per month This is not a traditional nonprofit grant writing role. CodePath's Philanthropy Partnerships team raises the capital behind our courses, our career support, and our students' outcomes. The Grant Writer is how that case gets made. You write for national foundations and corporate partners deciding where their social impact dollars go, and you translate program data, student outcomes, and organizational strategy into the proposals and reports that win major commitments and steward them.

The second half of the job makes the first half repeatable. You partner with Finance, Delivery, Higher Education, and Data to stay ahead of fast-moving program updates and impact metrics, then turn what you learn into reusable assets, writing frameworks, and AI-enabled workflows the whole team draws on. CodePath is an AI-native organization, and we expect this role to work like one. Writing faster with AI is table stakes. We want someone who builds the systems that raise everyone's output — so the team spends its time on strategy and judgment instead of rebuilding the same narrative from scratch. CodePath is scaling fast. This is the role that lets our fundraising capacity scale with it.

Key Activities Proposal development (~20%) Lead or support major grant proposals, concepts, and letters of inquiry from prospecting through submission, meeting every funder guideline and submission requirement Translate CodePath's mission, programs, and impact into compelling, consistent narratives the whole team can use Research, synthesize, and translate program data into funder-facing briefs, proposals, and supporting materials Build the frameworks and narratives that equip account owners to lead complex, high-value opportunities Grant reporting and compliance (~10%) Serve as…
