Operations is not a supporting function here—it is the core product.

At 2 Hour Learning, our AI-native K-12 school network depends entirely on the quality and reliability of our operational systems. The Operations team does not assist with expansion; they enable it. Every team member specializes in one of five critical areas, mastering their domain through hands-on execution and AI-powered acceleration:

• Authorization & Permitting – Obtain multi-state regulatory approval and expedite local permitting to open new markets.
• Physical Build-Out & Maintenance – Manage campus construction, facility improvements, and vendor accountability to deliver and maintain exceptional school environments.
• IT Operational Setup – Deploy comprehensive systems for every new campus—hardware, software, support infrastructure, and compliance—fully operational from day one.
• Financial Operations – Create budgets, generate real-time reporting dashboards, and ensure audit-grade financial oversight across all schools and business units.
• PMO – Drive execution of critical technology and marketing projects using vendor scorecards, tracking dashboards, and initiative-level performance reporting.

Your contributions will include building dashboards that eliminate financial ambiguity. Engineering onboarding workflows that cut student setup errors in half. Winning regulatory clearance in untapped states. Opening campuses faster than industry benchmarks. Designing AI-driven systems that eliminate traditional management overhead. This is mission-critical work executed at pace—by operators, not observers.

If you are an operator who identifies inefficiencies and starts building solutions immediately—not convening discussions—this role will suit you. The infrastructure you create will support the 25–30 schools launching over the coming year. Your systems will set the operational standard for hundreds of employees and thousands of students. Your results will be undeniable.
