Principal Product Architect   $400,000 USD/year

Description

Ready to architect the future of education? 2 Hour Learning seeks a visionary Principal Product Architect to spearhead our revolutionary AI-driven learning platform. This isn't your typical product role—it's a unique fusion of technical leadership and educational innovation where you'll wield CTO-level authority while maintaining the agility of a startup founder.

While others patch AI onto outdated educational frameworks, we've engineered something extraordinary: a complete reimagining of how students learn. Our approach doesn't just enhance traditional methods—it obliterates them. The results speak volumes: students achieving exceptional AP scores, accelerating years of growth in months, and consistently surpassing their own academic boundaries. This happens when AI becomes the foundational architecture of learning, not just a supplementary tool.

This position transcends conventional product management boundaries. You won't be managing feedback cycles or iterating on minor features. Instead, you'll architect the technical DNA of our entire educational ecosystem, making pivotal decisions that balance engineering excellence with pedagogical science. Your mission: ensure our platform remains lean, infinitely scalable, and laser-focused on transforming student achievement.

If you're prepared to revolutionize education through technical mastery and possess the determination to execute at this scale, this opportunity awaits. Come shape the next chapter of human learning.

What you will be doing

  • Cultivating profound expertise in educational technology to inform high-stakes strategic choices
  • Crafting comprehensive technical blueprints that prioritize elegance, performance, and sustainable growth
  • Leveraging cutting-edge generative AI to revolutionize development workflows, advancing our mission to eliminate repetitive manual processes

What you will NOT be doing

  • Managing teams as your primary function; your technical and strategic expertise will be your primary value drivers
  • Getting bogged down in bureaucratic processes or endless meeting cycles; our streamlined operations free you to focus on high-impact technical work
  • Creating abstract strategies without actionable frameworks; every recommendation must be grounded in practical product insights

Key responsibilities

  • Serve as the technical visionary for our educational products, mastering core technologies while delivering measurable business impact through flawless execution and strategic foresight

Candidate requirements

  • Extensive background and genuine passion for evidence-based educational methodology
  • 7+ years crafting critical architectural and design frameworks for software systems, including expertise in design patterns and major open-source technologies
  • 2+ years architecting solutions leveraging cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred)
  • 4+ years owning complete technical and delivery accountability for profitable products
  • Proven track record developing sophisticated generative AI-powered features
  • Demonstrated success implementing generative AI to optimize operational workflows
