Director of Learning, 2 Hour Learning (Remote) - $200,000/year USD

About This Role

This position offers the opportunity to redefine student achievement through the strategic application of AI technology.

2 Hour Learning has embedded AI throughout its entire operational framework. We have rebuilt the learning experience from first principles, combining artificial intelligence with advances in learning science to transcend the limitations of conventional schooling. The outcome? Students who consistently exceed expectations.

Our results speak for themselves: learners on our platform routinely earn 4s and 5s on five or more AP exams, achieve more than two years of growth on annual MAP assessments, and surpass what they believed possible. If the prospect of producing extraordinary outcomes at scale motivates you, 2 Hour Learning is your destination.

As Director of Learning, you will function as the principal designer of our transformative learning ecosystem for a dedicated school model spanning multiple campuses. Driven by an absolute focus on student success, you will leverage AI's vast capabilities to develop hyper-personalized learning pathways tailored to each student's distinct needs, interests, and goals.

Your work will combine strategic, data-informed planning with direct, hands-on involvement. You will analyze learning data in depth, extracting critical insights to fuel exponential student growth. Yet your engagement won't be remote—you will interact directly with students to grasp their experiences, obstacles, and achievements. These direct observations will inform your identification of the precise motivational and instructional techniques required to eliminate achievement barriers across all campuses.

You will lead a high-performing team of learning engineers, data scientists, and instructional innovators to realize your strategic vision. More fundamentally, you will advocate relentlessly for our students, ensuring every decision, innovation, and tactic centers squarely on enhancing their learning results.

This represents a rare opportunity to deploy AI in education and fundamentally reshape what is achievable. Equipped with advanced learning analytics, the capacity to test pedagogical theories at scale, and organizational support to challenge conventions, you will pioneer new approaches daily.

The scope is expansive, your resources exceptional, and your mission essential. At 2 Hour Learning, we are not simply using AI to improve test scores—we are unlocking the complete capacity of human potential, entirely without traditional classroom teachers.

If you are prepared to apply the most transformative technology of our era to the most fundamental institution of our society, this is your opportunity. Bold vision, disciplined execution, and unwavering dedication to student success are required. Those committed to preserving outdated models need not apply.

Join us at the forefront of AI's revolution in education. Together, we will not merely anticipate the future of learning—we will build it.
