Role Description This is an Individual Contributor (IC) role. We're looking for a Senior Learning Experience Designer who designs and builds in equal measure, and who does their best work when the pace is quick and the problems are loosely defined. You'll own complete learning journeys end to end — not one-off courses — translating dense FinTech and SaaS product workflows into experiences that feel simple, hold attention, and scale across a global audience. - Map and build full learning journeys tied to real workflows and the performance outcomes they're meant to move. - Produce storyboards and learning flows clear enough that development can run smoothly and at scale. - Take tired legacy material and rebuild it into something visual, current, and genuinely learner-first. - Grow the shared toolkit — design systems, frameworks, and reusable models others can build on. - Craft interactive facilitator-led sessions, complete with participant materials and facilitation guides. - Build persona-driven microlearning, simulations, and game mechanics that lift engagement and retention. - Use Articulate Storyline as the home base for builds — with AI feedback and interactions living inside the course itself — and design in Rise where clean localization matters. - Weave in video, animation, and other media so the finished experience feels cohesive and polished. - Rework existing templates for better flow and engagement — nothing ships straight out of the box. - Keep everything compliant, tracked, and QA'd in Docebo. - Lean on AI (Claude, Gemini, Notebook LM) to speed up outlining, drafting, content development, prototyping, file population, and revision cycles. - Work shoulder-to-shoulder with SMEs to keep learning anchored to business goals and metrics. - Juggle several projects at once without losing speed, quality, or deadlines — and without needing much oversight. - Operate comfortably against SLAs. Qualifications - At least 5 years designing and developing instructional content, backed by a portfolio of end-to-end journeys, scenario work, and impact you can point to. - Experience building with Generative AI (Claude, Gemini, Notebook LM) in live production. - Fast and assured in Articulate 360 (Storyline), Rise, Synthesia, and 7Taps, plus Figma or a comparable tool for quick prototyping and storyboarding. - Comfortable in Adobe Creative Cloud (Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro, Audition) to create and integrate multimedia. - Fluency with JavaScript and Storyline web objects. - Track record building interactive, facilitator-led and live virtual sessions that are engaging, scalable, and outcomes-driven. - Reputation for shipping strong work quickly when volume is high. - Skilled at turning complicated systems into learning that changes performance. - Background designing for customer-facing teams or product training. - Evidence that your work moves the needle on engagement, adoption, and outcomes (NPS, completion, and the like). - Experience creating reusable, scalable content and frameworks. - Grounded in learning science — cognitive load, Bloom's, the forgetting curve and spaced reinforcement, behavior change and motivation, and microlearning/chunking. - At home in Agile and fast-paced settings. Requirements - Design learning experiences, not just content. - Build quickly using modern tools and AI. - Drive measurable impact through engagement and performance. Benefits - 6-month contract (strong likelihood of extension). - 100% Remote (U.S. or Canadian candidates only). - 40 hours per week @ $55–$65/hour (C2C or 1099), based on experience. - Standard U.S. business hours (EST/CST/MST/PST). - Heavy Slack collaboration. - Laptop provided.
