• Translate product and content strategy into a development plan, develop high-level content designs, and lead your team in executing the roadmap toward organizational goals.
• Lead the team in building and launching curriculum content, creating roadmaps and milestones, allocating resources, and standardizing workflows and development processes.
• Set and uphold standards for pedagogy, technical accuracy, and craft across our products, and manage an external review process with subject matter experts and teacher reviewers.
• Oversee curriculum partnerships, including externally developed content, ensuring quality and alignment with CodeAI standards.
• Drive innovation in curriculum design and development, including incorporating AI into content-development workflows and pioneering new approaches to building engaging learning experiences.
• Stay close to teachers and students, using discovery and data to ground content decisions in their real needs.
• Build strong partnerships across product management, design, engineering, marketing, and data, communicating effectively with stakeholders and leadership.

• Deep knowledge of CS and AI concepts relevant to at minimum the K-12 grade bands of the CSTA standards and the AI Literacy Framework, with fluency in at least one text-based programming language (Python or JavaScript).
• A deep and current understanding of curriculum development principles and frameworks, including how to design effective learning experiences in online and blended environments, and best practices in pedagogical design.
• A demonstrated commitment to content quality – setting standards, running review processes, and giving developmental feedback to content creators – as well as to innovation in the curriculum space.
• Direct experience teaching CS and/or AI in a K-12 setting.
• Interest and experience incorporating AI into content-development workflows to improve quality, consistency, and efficiency.
• Strong project management skills, with experience leading and prioritizing multiple complex projects with many moving parts, ideally using project management tools.
