Responsibilities
- Design and build courses, learning paths, and assessments — including quizzes and certification exam content — that reflect our product and how customers actually use it, applying sound instructional design practices and SCORM/xAPI standards

- Strong writing skills, translating technical or dense material into clear, accessible content
- Comfortable building and publishing courses in a modern LMS such as Skilljar, Docebo, or Absorb, and authoring tools like Articulate 360, Camtasia, or Captivate
- Background in leave and accommodations management or HR technology, a CLMS certification, or experience building product training alongside a product team is a strong plus
- Familiarity with SCORM/xAPI standards, basic video production, or Salesforce/CRM-driven learner reporting is also valuable
