  • Develop sales enablement and product training to improve the technical knowledge of the sales organization.
  • Support customer education through webinars, workshops, events, and other learning programs.
  • Develop CEU-eligible or accredited educational content when applicable.

Content Development

  • Utilize tools such as Microsoft 365, Canva, Adobe Express, and other content-development platforms.
  • Repurpose existing technical and training content into new learning formats.

Program & Stakeholder Management

  • Build strong relationships with Product Management, Sales, Marketing, technical experts, and external partners.

What We're Looking For

The right person is a builder and problem solver who can take a blank page and turn it into a functioning training program.

You should be comfortable working directly with technical experts, asking questions, learning unfamiliar subject matter, and determining the best way to teach it to a specific audience.

We're looking for someone who cares about whether people actually learn and apply the material , not simply whether the training looks good. You should be willing to test new approaches, use data and feedback to improve programs, and leverage AI and technology to make the instructional design process more efficient.

This is an opportunity to take meaningful ownership of the organization's learning strategy and build programs that directly support employees, customers, and the sales organization.
