  • Regularly QA, iterate, and refine learning content to ensure accessibility, usability, and business alignment
  • Contribute to evolving our team’s instructional design systems, templates, and processes
What you bring
  • 3–5 years of experience in instructional design or learning experience design in a corporate or startup setting

  • Skilled in working with subject matter experts and cross-functional partners to co-create impactful learning
  • Comfortable managing multiple projects at once and adapting in a fast-paced, changing environment

  • Comfortable navigating ambiguity and proactively identifying ways to improve learning systems, templates, and learner experiences at scale
  • Excellent communication skills across written, visual, and verbal mediums
  • Experience in supporting M&A and/or international learning needs a plus
