Description
- Onsite position in Austin, TX. Relocation assistance provided
- $150,000 annual salary, disbursed weekly
- Comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage from day one
Alpha reimagines early education with a model that replaces traditional structures with something fundamentally different. Our PreK program integrates play-driven curriculum design with live developmental tracking — no standardized scripts, no checkbox compliance. In this role, you will architect adaptive learning experiences across all readiness domains, guide a team of classroom facilitators to execute them with both precision and enthusiasm, and monitor quantifiable milestone achievement for every enrolled child.
This position is operationally hands-on. Approximately one-third of your time will be spent in active classrooms — demonstrating facilitation methods, observing instructional moments, and conducting calibration debriefs. The remainder is devoted to curriculum architecture, targeted coaching of Guides with concrete performance benchmarks, and delivering evidence-informed communications to families. The outcomes are visible: four-year-olds reaching developmental markers ahead of schedule, Guides raising quality metrics consistently, and parents turning into active champions.
Guide the educators. Architect the learning. Apply today.
What you will be doing
- Conduct individual and small-group coaching with PreK Guides, demonstrating instructional methods and recognizing quantifiable progress
- Architect and lead play-driven learning sessions integrating social-emotional learning, literacy, numeracy, and motor development, exemplifying excellence for the instructional team
- Audit and standardize Guide documentation on a weekly basis to ensure rubric consistency and clarity, facilitating calibration reviews that keep milestone tracking transparent
- Develop family communication materials and convene team alignment meetings that synchronize priorities and uphold collective standards for campus-wide PreK readiness targets
What you will NOT be doing
- Adhering to inflexible lesson templates or compliance-focused protocols — you will create responsive, play-centered themes informed by live performance data
- Delivering a predetermined curriculum imposed from leadership — you control quarterly and weekly instructional planning
- Operating independently without structured feedback — coaching dialogues and calibration meetings are embedded weekly
- Overseeing K-12 learners using digital platforms — this position is entirely focused on early childhood, experiential, in-person instruction
