STARTUP Fullstack Developer - Equity Available

What We Do

Rocket Alumni Solutions makes web-based touchscreen software. We make it all “Just Work” and allow schools to upload massive amounts of media. We make all that media look pretty and organized. We then enable schools to engage alumni & donors with this information. We simplify the process of delivering museum quality web-based touchscreen displays and allow schools to engage alumni at scale.
