[Hiring] Senior Instructional Designer @TEKsystems

Role Description

Our client is seeking a senior-level Instructional Designer to lead the design and development of a modern training program supporting a new enterprise application. This individual will operate as the primary instructional design resource for the initiative and will partner directly with project leadership, subject matter experts, scheduling/operations stakeholders, and clinical representatives.

The Instructional Designer will own the learning-development process from requirements gathering through design, development, stakeholder review, and iteration. They will be expected to quickly learn an unfamiliar application and workflow, translate complex SME input into an effective learning strategy, and determine the appropriate blend of Rise, Storyline, video, microlearning, and other delivery methods.

The ideal candidate brings deep Articulate 360 expertise combined with strong visual-design instincts and a portfolio demonstrating polished, custom-built eLearning. Our client is specifically looking to move beyond traditional application training built around screenshots, step-by-step clicks, and standard eLearning templates. The successful designer will bring modern instructional-design thinking, strong adult-learning principles, and the creativity to develop engaging experiences tailored to our client's audience and brand.

This individual must also be highly autonomous and comfortable navigating a complex stakeholder environment. SMEs and project stakeholders have competing priorities, so success requires someone who can proactively drive requirements conversations, ask strong questions, negotiate through ambiguity, and maintain accountability without requiring significant oversight.
