Teachable is on a mission to enable the transformative power of knowledge in our world. Our online platform enables individuals and small businesses (our “Creators”) to build, host and sell online courses and coaching. We generate revenue in two ways: (1) from monthly or annual subscription fees (SaaS) paid to us by our Creators for access to the platform; and (2) from transaction fees calculated as a percent of the value of courses and services sold by Creators through our platform. We currently support over 40,000 Creators who have collectively sold over $1 billion in courses and coaching on Teachable; the Teachable Money Crew powers the underlying infrastructure and creates the experiences to support our knowledge-based creators in running and scaling their businesses. 

This position reports into the Director of Product and will be responsible for driving the vision, development and measurement of exceptional student commerce experiences for Teachable. This role will develop the business strategy for critical parts of the student commerce journey, including payment integrations and checkout, and is designed for a senior product person with a deep analytical background and a passion for ecommerce, merchandising, and optimizing for engaging user flows. 

We just crossed the boundary into the “three comma club”, having helped our customers sell for a total of a billion dollars in our first 6 years. It’s well within reason for us to repeat the next billion during 2022. Our customers trust us to be their business partners and we need YOU to come play a critical role in fulfilling this promise.
