Job description

Creative Instructional Designer & School Implementation Lead

Location : Remote-first (global time zones)

Type : Full-time, high-ownership role in a fast-growing startup (not a 9–5)

Focus : K12, entrepreneurial mindset, executive function, and AI-related curriculum

Why this role exists

We are scaling Kidspreneurship, an entrepreneurial mindset program for K12. We need someone who can design excellent teacher-training lesson plans, deliver engaging training, and support teachers throughout the implementation process across different countries and curricula. If you are a builder, a doer, and a hustler who loves turning ideas into classroom impact, you will feel at home.

What you will do

Design Curriculum

  • Architect modular teacher-training lesson plans (beginner → advanced), including session flows, facilitator guides, slide decks, activities, assessments, and rubrics.
  • Localize content for different school contexts (US / UK / CBSE / IB / IGCSE, etc.) while preserving the core outcomes.
  • Create plug-and-play resource packs : project briefs, AI-assisted rubrics, checklists, reflection templates, classroom posters, and micro-learning videos.
  • Develop content for students.
  • Iterate fast, and improve teacher training regularly.

Training Delivery

  • Run live virtual and on-site teacher trainings (demo lessons, facilitation techniques, classroom management for project-based learning).
  • Coach teachers in entrepreneurial pedagogy (problem-finding, design thinking, creativity, prototyping, pitching, reflection).
  • Model best-practice lessons for K12; record exemplars for our platform.
  • Implementation & School Success

  • Own school onboarding : timelines, readiness checklists, tech setup, and success criteria.
  • Provide rigorous ongoing support : 1 : 1 coaching, feedback on student projects, and intervention plans for classes that are behind.
  • Track completion, engagement, and learning outcomes; publish school-level reports with insights and recommendations.
  • Coordinate across time zones; manage a global calendar of trainings, showcases, and review cycles.
  • Ops & Quality

  • Build SOPs for training, QA rubrics for sessions, and a resource library that teachers actually use.
  • Capture and share best practices; turn field learnings into repeatable playbooks.
  • Partner with Product / Content to prioritize feature and content requests from schools.
  • You will thrive if you have

  • 3–7+ years in teacher training, instructional design, or school implementation (EdTech, nonprofits, or networks of schools).
  • Demonstrated mastery of K12 curriculum (design thinking, problem-solving, creativity, financial & ethical awareness, pitching, reflection).
  • Strong instructional design chops : backwards design, clear outcomes, formative checks, and authentic assessments.
  • Facilitation experience : you can engage mixed-experience cohorts, handle live Q&A, and model classroom routines.
  • Operational hustle : you’ll juggle multiple schools across time zones and sometimes over the weekends.
  • Data comfort : dashboards, basic analytics, and using insights to improve training and classroom practice.
  • Nice to have

  • Experience aligning content to IB / 21st-century skills frameworks.
  • Familiarity with AI-supported assessment and project-based learning at scale.
  • Prior work in a high-growth startup or school network.
  • Ability to run showcase events : student pitch days, exhibitions, and community partnerships.
  • What we need

  • Creativity in DNA
  • Owner mindset : You spot gaps and fix them without waiting.
  • You listen to classrooms and let real teacher / student needs steer priorities.
  • Remote-first with global coordination; occasional travel for key school launches, showcases, or partner events.
  • Rapid scope growth as we scale across regions.
  • Opportunity to shape a category-defining K12 entrepreneurship program.
  • Success metrics (first 6–12 months)

  • 90%+ teacher satisfaction (post-training & post-implementation).
  • 85%+ school-level completion of core modules on time.
  • Measurable teacher practice growth (pre / post confidence & observation rubrics).
  • Resource library utilization (downloads and in-class adoption) is trending up month over month.
  • Documented playbooks that reduce onboarding time per school by 25–40%.
