Description
Are you an innovative technical product leader eager to revolutionize education through AI? Join 2 Hour Learning as the architect of our AI-driven learning ecosystem. This pivotal role is for someone with the technical expertise akin to a CTO, the visionary mindset to drive transformative change, and the dedication to harness these skills to unlock student potential on an unparalleled scale.
While many companies treat AI as an add-on, at 2 Hour Learning, we’ve reimagined the educational model, intertwining AI and learning science to dismantle the constraints of traditional classrooms. Our students not only improve but excel, achieving top scores on AP exams, making multi-year academic advancements in a single year, and consistently surpassing their own expectations. We’ve demonstrated that when AI is the core engine of learning, student success soars.
This isn’t your typical product management role centered around customer feedback or incremental feature releases. As an executive-level technical product owner, you will oversee the architecture, technical strategy, and AI integration of our learning system. Your role involves making strategic technical decisions to ensure our products remain lean, scalable, and laser-focused on enhancing student outcomes. You’ll combine the strategic thinking of a CTO with the entrepreneurial drive of a product innovator, merging engineering prowess with learning science insights to foster continuous breakthroughs.
If you’re prepared to lead the technical transformation of education and possess the executional tenacity to realize this vision, we invite you to apply. Seize the chance to shape the future of learning.
