About the Role

We're building a school program for students in grades 5–12. We're looking for a senior curriculum professional to review and elevate our existing, already-piloted curriculum, and to lead development of new curriculum tracks with outside subject-matter experts.

What You'll Do

●       Review our existing, previously piloted curriculum for pedagogical soundness, consistency, and sophistication

●       Identify gaps or inconsistencies and recommend improvements based on prior pilot learnings

●       Lead the development of new curriculum content areas by partnering directly with outside subject-matter experts, translating their expertise into structured, age-appropriate learning content

●       Define learning objectives, sequencing, and key concepts for each new content area

●       Direct and quality-check the work of a curriculum writer to ensure new lesson content aligns with established learning objectives, tone, and prior pilot feedback

●       Establish reusable frameworks and documentation so future content areas can be built consistently and efficiently

●       Collaborate with our product and platform team to ensure curriculum integrates cleanly with the overall learning experience

What We're Looking For

●       Senior-level experience in curriculum design or instructional design, ideally having scaled a program across multiple content areas

●       Experience working directly with subject-matter experts to translate professional or technical knowledge into learner-friendly content

●       Strong pedagogical background specific to learners in grades 5–12

●       Comfort auditing and elevating existing content, not only building from scratch

●       Experience directing or reviewing the work of other writers or contributors

●       Excellent judgment on tone, clarity, and age-appropriateness of educational content

Nice to Have

●       Experience with business, partnerships or financial literacy education for youth

●  Experience in K-12 or youth education, project-based or experiential learning, or digital learning or EdTech would be valuable.


To Apply

Please share your resume along with a portfolio or writing sample of prior curriculum or instructional design work; ideally including an example where you worked with a subject-matter expert to build content, or where you reviewed and elevated an existing curriculum.
