This position requires the architectural rigor of a CTO, the strategic clarity to lead transformational initiatives, and the commitment to unlock student achievement at scale. While most organizations layer AI onto conventional education frameworks as a cosmetic addition, 2 Hour Learning has taken a fundamentally different approach: we have reconstructed schooling from first principles, integrating AI and learning science to eliminate the limitations inherent in traditional classrooms. The results speak for themselves — our students consistently earn multiple 4s and 5s on AP exams, demonstrate multi-year growth within a single academic year, and exceed their own performance expectations. When AI becomes the foundational operating system for learning rather than a supplementary tool, academic outcomes accelerate dramatically. This is not a conventional product management position centered on user feedback cycles or iterative feature releases. This is an executive-level technical ownership role where you will control the architecture, technical direction, and AI strategy across our complete learning ecosystem. You will make the critical technical decisions that keep our products lightweight, scalable, and laser-focused on student success. You will combine the strategic perspective of a CTO with the execution velocity of a product entrepreneur, merging engineering discipline with learning science principles to deliver continuous innovation. If you are prepared to architect the technical future of education and possess the operational discipline to realize that vision, we invite your application. This is your chance to shape how learning works.What You Will Be DoingBuilding and applying deep expertise in education product design to inform strategic directionCreating technical specifications that resolve key architectural decisions while prioritizing simplicity, performance, and sustainabilityDeploying generative AI solutions to automate engineering workflows and eliminate manual overhead, in alignment with our strategic goal of maximizing value creationWhat You Won’t Be DoingManaging people as your primary function; this role demands business insight and technical judgment above allSitting through unnecessary meetings, committees, or bureaucratic processes; we have eliminated management overhead to maximize your focus on hands‑on value creationProposing high-level visions without actionable technical detail; your guidance must be grounded in product-level understandingPrincipal Product Architect Key ResponsibilitiesServe as the technical owner (CTO) for one or more education products, maintaining core technical capabilities and generating business impact through flawless execution and strategic leadershipBasic RequirementsSubstantial experience or demonstrated interest in data-driven learning science7+ years of experience driving critical architecture and design decisions on software projects, including the application of design patterns and major open source frameworks2+ years of experience making architectural decisions involving cloud computing platforms (primarily AWS)4+ years of experience in roles with complete technical and delivery accountability for a revenue-generating productProven experience developing product capabilities that leverage Generative AI in sophisticated waysDemonstrated ability to apply Generative AI to streamline and optimize workflowsAbout 2 Hour Learning Education is broken, but 2 Hour Learning is proving it doesn’t have to be.
