Pilot the program with a few customers and measure completion, adoption, and feedback

Deliver a maintenance playbook so our team can keep content current as the products change

Qualifications:

3+ years designing training for external customers of a software product (required)

A portfolio showing self-paced or e-learning work you designed (required)

Hands-on experience selecting or administering a customer-facing LMS, such as Skilljar, Thinkific, Docebo, or Northpass

Degree in instructional design, learning technology, or a related field (preferred)
