YOUR IMPACT
As an Instructional Designer, AI-Augmented Learning at Redwood, you'll play a critical role in translating complex technical content into structured, engaging learning experiences for customers and internal teams. Working closely with a Senior Instructional Designer, Content Developers, and subject matter experts (SMEs), you'll support the full development lifecycle for training programs across Redwood's automation and file transfer platforms.
You're highly organized, detail-oriented, and fluent in using AI tools to accelerate and elevate your work. This role directly contributes to customer onboarding, product adoption, and overall learning effectiveness.
Instructional Design & Content Development
- Own the instructional design lifecycle from needs analysis through development and evaluation, applying frameworks such as ADDIE, SAM, and Bloom's Taxonomy
- Structure content into clear, modular lessons with knowledge checks and assessments that include targeted, actionable feedback
- Utilize structured AI workflows to transform reference materials into structured learning assets, identifying gaps and iteratively refining interactive eLearning, video and guides.
- Design and maintain AI-assisted content development workflows, including structured pipelines for SME synthesis and content generation, AI-generated draft storyboards, AI narration and script generation, and automated review passes
- Document reusable AI workflows, skills and knowledge resources so processes scale across the team
Storyboarding & Action Mapping
- Lead action mapping exercises to align learning content with business goals and performance outcomes, then translate those into detailed storyboards that define instructional flow, interactivity, and asset requirements
- Leverage AI tools to accelerate storyboard drafting, generate scenario variations, and prototype interactive learning flows
- Evaluate and integrate emerging AI tools (including generative video, AI voice and narration, and adaptive learning scaffolding) against content quality standards; own the decision log for when and how AI-generated assets enter the production pipeline
- Partner with Content Developers to align on design intent and support development in Articulate Rise, Storyline, Camtasia, and Review 360
SME Coordination
- Coordinate with subject matter experts to gather content, validate accuracy, and maintain scope alignment
- Communicate timelines, expectations, and deliverables to SMEs; provide guidance on content structure, best practices, and templates
- Apply structured AI workflows to process raw SME input (e.g., call recordings, rough documentation, or interview notes) into draft lesson content: this includes prompt design, output validation, and SME review handoff, not one-off copy-paste from a chat window
Content Workflow, Tools & LMS
- Work within established workflows across Atlassian, Google Drive, and authoring tools; maintain adherence to team standards, naming conventions, and file structures
- Perform routine LMS administration within Redwood University to support content organization, updates, and system accuracy
- Facilitate review cycles using Articulate Review 360; track, document, and resolve feedback from SMEs, Product, and stakeholders
- Ensure content meets quality, accuracy, and usability standards prior to release
- Maintain and update existing learning content in response to product changes, learner feedback, and post-project reviews
YOUR EXPERIENCE
Required
- 5+ years in instructional design or learning experience design
- Experience with eLearning authoring tools (Articulate Rise, Storyline, Camtasia)
- Demonstrated ability to translate complex technical content into structured, learner-appropriate formats
- Experience creating storyboards and instructional design documentation
- Applied knowledge of adult learning theory in production content design
- Demonstrated AI fluency in a production learning context: be prepared to describe a specific workflow you designed and operated, what it replaced, and what you measured. Occasional tool use does not meet this bar
- Experience designing training for SaaS, enterprise software, or technical products
Preferred
- Experience with agile frameworks (Scrum, Kanban) in a collaborative development context
- Experience with LMS platforms and SCORM-based content delivery
- Experience with learning analytics and assessment design best practices
