THE ROLE

The Learning Experience Designer (LXD) is a full-time, exempt role reporting to the Learning Experience Design Manager.  This position is primarily a hands-on learning design role—crafting high-quality, learner-centered curriculum for online delivery through the Pathstream platform. 

Design & Development

• Course Design and Scoping: Transform program goals into clear course structures by defining learning objectives, outlining instructional approaches, and creating actionable execution plans.
• Interactive Curriculum Development:  Design and author high-quality, learner-centered asynchronous curriculum—including lessons, activities, and assessments—that build real-world skills for learners working in industry contexts.

Quality & Execution

• Content Quality: Iterate on course materials, incorporating feedback from stakeholders and subject matter experts, and ensuring alignment with learning objectives, LXD best practices, and Pathstream’s internal standards.
• End-to-End Course Ownership: Manage the entire course creation lifecycle from concept to delivery, ensuring timely execution, instructional quality, and alignment with program goals.

Innovation & Strategic Alignment

• Learning Design Innovation: Leverage learning science and research to shape instructional approaches and enhance the effectiveness of learning experiences.
• Business and Learner Impact Alignment: Leverage program data, learner feedback, and performance metrics to refine instructional strategies and ensure learning experiences drive measurable outcomes.
• AI in Learning Design: Thoughtfully leverage established AI tools in your day-to-day work, while actively exploring new ways to use them more effectively in service of better learning experiences.

 

About You:

• You have meaningful experience designing and developing online learning experiences, and a background that includes direct contact with learners — whether through teaching, coaching, facilitation, or something else entirely.
• You enjoy diving into industries that are new to you and building a deep understanding of learner contexts and pain points. You’re comfortable working across complex or technical subject areas (currently including topics like fraud, claims, mortgages, and financial literacy) and translating them into engaging learning experiences.
• You’re a hands-on builder who enjoys the day-to-day work of designing and developing learning experiences, not just setting direction.
• You're passionate about creating learning experiences that genuinely change outcomes for people who are working hard to advance their careers. You balance that mission with pragmatism, focusing on what will actually help learners succeed in real-world job contexts.
• You’re collaborative by nature, energized by cross-functional work, but also happy to spend a large portion of your day heads down. 
• You think about the full learner journey, not just individual lessons — you make design decisions
