  • Own the creation and implementation of new hire, in-function and people leader learning programs.
  • Develop best in class materials including eLearning, facilitation materials, participant guides, worksheets, job aids, animations, video, and voiceovers, in alignment with company brand and design standards.
  • Independently surface and deliver win-win solutions that leverage our entire enterprise learning ecosystem. 
  • Become the “go-to expert” for business stakeholders on learning journey design and training facilitation.
  • Manage projects through all phases and milestones including analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation.
  • Practice an empathy-driven approach to content design that involves understanding the diversity of our learners and learning environments.

We’d love to hear from you if…

  • You have 7+ years conceptualizing, developing and implementing learning programs, courses and curriculum for a wide variety of audiences (technical and non-technical, exempt and non-exempt, individual contributors, people managers).
  • You have 6+ years of training facilitation experience in both ILT and virtual environments.
  • You are a highly motivated, productive, and independent developer in a fast-paced/startup or hyper growth environment.
  • You have a passion for instructional design and a knowledge of adult learning best practices and methodologies, including assessment and evaluation.
  • You think outside the box to build highly creative and effective learning solutions.
  • You are able to adapt to the rapidly changing needs of customers and internal stakeholders. 
  • You are a "people person" who can build internal trust and rapport with ease.
  • You have extensive experience driving projects to completion.
  • You have expert knowledge of common learning authoring tools (i.e. Adobe & Articulate) and LMS platforms (i.e. Lessonly, Docebo)

You can expect...

  • Company-paid health, dental, vision, life & disability insurance
  • 401(k) plan, FSA & commuter benefits
  • Generous PTO 
  • A flexible-first workplace, with the freedom to work in our beautiful offices or remotely as needed based on the needs of your role, team, and the business
