Overview

This role is designed for academic leaders who prefer building the system over critiquing it from the outside.

Your subject mastery allows you to recognize high-quality learning, your rigor enables you to translate that insight into rubrics and AI-driven quality controls, and your pragmatism ensures you can act decisively on incomplete data.

Student improvement is your primary concern, and you are prepared to be measured by that standard.

2 Hour Learning pursues an approach that most software and education companies avoid.

Teachers, textbooks, and the familiar scaffolding of traditional instruction are absent from the product.

AI serves as the operational foundation.

In this position, you deploy it to create and refine learning content, architect interventions, oversee quality, and advance the platform.

The work tempo resembles high-performance tech, consulting, or banking environments more than typical education settings, and the reward is direct accountability for a subject's student outcomes across multiple campuses.

This is a functional leadership role.

You will develop AI-powered enhancements to the learning ecosystem, react to student-performance data with targeted interventions, produce evidence-backed decision records, and lead a team according to explicit standards linked to MAP, AP, SAT, and ISEE performance.

Collaboration with product, engineering, and data science teams to shape platform priorities is central.

The role suits someone who defaults to AI, conducts their own analysis, delivers work amid uncertainty, and takes full ownership of outcomes.

Anyone who favors consensus-driven timelines, minimal accountability, or the security of established systems will find it frustrating.

You will serve as a key leader within the academics team, wielding genuine influence over your subject's performance and the evolution of the broader learning system.

Your colleagues will depend on your standards, judgment, and capacity to translate student data into action.

If that prospect excites rather than intimidates you, this role was built for you.

What You Will Be Doing

  • Learning Ecosystem Enhancements — AI-generated refinements to K–12 subject-specific learning experiences, spanning content, adaptive pathways, and student interventions, shaped by student feedback, analytics, assessments, and coaching observations.
  • Data-Driven Academic Interventions — Focused intervention strategies for students or cohorts falling behind, informed by MAP, AP, SAT, ISEE, and related performance metrics.
  • Student Performance Decision Records — Repeatable, evidence-supported decisions that document actions taken to improve student performance, backed by dashboards, analytics, tickets, surveys, coaching calls, and assessment results.
  • Learning Ecosystem Improvement Specs — Implementation-ready specifications for product, engineering, and data science enhancements, featuring problem statements, supporting evidence, projected student impact, and acceptance criteria.

What You Won’t Be Doing

  • Repackaging traditional education in an AI wrapper. This isn't about replicating classroom instruction via screens – we're fundamentally reimagining learning from the ground up.
  • Analyzing data in isolation. You'll be expected to regularly engage with K-12 students, valuing their feedback as essential input from our paying customers.
  • Waiting for consensus to push boundaries. You'll champion a bold vision and rally others around data-driven results.
  • Sticking to conventional methods. You'll be free to experiment with innovative approaches to motivation, assessment, and instruction.
  • Fearing AI's impact on education. Here, you'll harness AI as an exciting tool to revolutionize learning, not as a threat to be mitigated.

Director Of Learning Key Responsibilities

Lead innovation in AI-powered, teacher-less education to produce outstanding student outcomes across multiple campuses.

Combine data analytics with consistent student engagement to continuously refine our learning ecosystem, as reflected in AP exam performance and MAP assessment growth.

Basic Requirements

  • Master's degree or higher in Educational Science, Learning Science, Psychology, Psychometrics, Instructional Design, or a related field
  • At least 5 years of experience in academic or EdTech leadership roles, with direct people management responsibility (hiring, performance evaluation, coaching, termination decisions)
  • Demonstrated experience using AI tools as part of day-to-day professional workflows, and willingness to rely on AI extensively to improve academic and operational outcomes.
  • Strong understanding of learning science principles, such as Cognitive Load Theory and Mayer's Multimedia Principles, and data-driven educational approaches
