Startups launched and grown in Ann Arbor can sometimes end up in new homes after they are acquired. That’s not the case with
Seelio. The 3-year-old startup is doubling down on Tree Town with a small spike in hiring.
The downtown Ann Arbor-based higher education software startup has hired 14 people over the last year, expanding its staff to 22 employees and an intern. It is currently looking to hire four more people in software development, educational services, and a director of a university partnership development. Check out the openings

"We have been hiring at a rapid pace," says Emily Keller-Logan, director of marketing & communications for
Seelio. "We have brought on a lot of talented people."
Seelio's platform enables college students to showcase their portfolio of work. The software documents how their college projects came to fruition and presents them for employers in job interviews. Check out a video about the platform

"We're providing student lifecycle portfolios to institutions so that students can begin preparing for their careers from orientation to graduation," Keller-Logan says.
Seelio raised a $1.5 million seed capital round in 2013. It was acquired by Kansas City-based
PlattForm last summer.
