Are you a technically rigorous product leader with the ambition to drive AI-led transformation in education? 2 Hour Learning seeks a technical architect to spearhead the evolution of our AI-driven learning platform. This position demands the technical precision of a CTO, the strategic vision to catalyze transformational shifts, and the commitment to use those capabilities to unlock student achievement on an unprecedented scale. While most organizations treat AI as an add-on to conventional education frameworks, 2 Hour Learning has pursued a fundamentally different approach: we have reconstructed the school model from first principles, leveraging AI and learning science to eliminate the limitations inherent in traditional classrooms. Our students do not simply progress — they excel, earning multiple 4s and 5s on AP examinations, demonstrating multi-year academic advancement within a single year, and repeatedly surpassing their own projected outcomes. We have validated that when AI serves as the foundational operating system for learning, student performance accelerates dramatically. This is not a conventional product management position centered on iterative feature releases or customer feedback cycles. This is an executive-level technical product ownership role, in which you will own the architectural direction, technical strategy, and AI integration across our complete learning ecosystem. You will make critical technical tradeoffs that ensure our platforms remain lean, scalable, and unwaveringly centered on enhancing student results. You will operate with the mindset of a CTO and the velocity of a product entrepreneur, combining engineering discipline with learning science to drive sustained breakthroughs. If you are prepared to lead the technical redefinition of education and possess the operational discipline to realize that vision, we invite your application. This is your chance to architect the future of learning. What You Will Be Doing • Cultivating and applying comprehensive education product expertise to inform strategic direction, • Authoring technical specifications that resolve critical technical decisions while prioritizing simplicity, efficiency, and sustainability, • Deploying generative AI capabilities to automate and optimize engineering workflows, consistent with the strategic objective of minimizing manual effort What You Won’t Be Doing • Exclusive people management; your technical judgment and business insight will be central to this role, • Spending time in meetings, committees, or bureaucratic processes; we have streamlined management overhead to enable you to concentrate on delivering business value through direct execution, • Abstract strategies disconnected from implementation; your guidance must be grounded in product-level understanding Vice President Of Product Engineering Key Responsibilities • Serve as the CTO for one or more education products, owning foundational capabilities and generating business value through flawless execution and strategic leadership Basic Requirements • Substantial experience or passion for data-driven learning science, • 7+ years of experience driving critical architecture and design decisions on software initiatives, including the application of architecture design patterns or major open source technologies, • 2+ years of experience making design decisions that incorporate cloud computing services (primarily AWS), • 4+ years of experience in roles with complete technical and delivery accountability for a revenue-generating product, • Track record of building product features that leverage advanced Generative AI capabilities, • Demonstrated use of Generative AI to streamline operational processes About 2 Hour Learning Education is broken, but 2 Hour Learning is proving it doesn’t have to be. They’re tearing down the outdated one-size-fits-all model and replacing it with AI-driven personalized learning that helps kids master academics in just two hours a day. With students consistently ranking in the top 1-2% nationally and the top 20% achieving an astonishing 6.5x growth, they’re proving that smarter learning is possible. At 2 Hour Learning, it’s talent and performance that matter. They offer a dynamic, on-campus and remote-friendly environment where innovators, educators, and AI specialists can be a part of fixing a broken school system. 2 Hour Learning is reprogramming learning for the AI era. Here’s How They’re Fixing It. There is so much to cover for this exciting role, and space here is limited. Hit the Apply button if you found this interesting and want to learn more.
