Vice President of Product Engineering, 2 Hour Learning (Remote) - $400,000/year USD

2 Hour Learning seeks a technically accomplished product leader to spearhead the modernization of our AI-driven learning ecosystem. This position demands the technical depth of a CTO, the strategic product vision to catalyze transformational outcomes, and the commitment to deploy those capabilities toward unlocking student achievement at scale.

While most organizations append AI to conventional educational frameworks as a secondary layer, 2 Hour Learning has pursued a fundamentally different approach: we have reconstructed the school model entirely, leveraging AI and learning science to eliminate the limitations inherent in traditional classrooms. Our students achieve extraordinary results—earning multiple 4s and 5s on AP exams, demonstrating multi-year academic acceleration within a single year, and regularly exceeding their own performance expectations. When AI functions as the foundational operating system of learning, student success reaches exceptional levels.

This is not a conventional product management position centered on customer feedback cycles or gradual feature enhancements. This is an executive-level technical product ownership role in which you will control the architecture, technical strategy, and AI integration across our entire learning platform. You will navigate the complex technical tradeoffs required to keep our products lean, scalable, and uncompromisingly focused on elevating student outcomes. You will combine the mindset of a CTO with the agility of a product entrepreneur, merging engineering rigor with learning science principles to drive continuous innovation.

If you are prepared to lead the technical transformation of education and possess the operational discipline to realize that ambition, we invite your application. This is your chance to architect the future of learning.

What You Will Be Doing

• Building and applying deep education product expertise to inform strategic direction
• Creating technical specifications that establish critical technical decisions while prioritizing simplicity, operational efficiency, and sustainable long-term design
• Deploying generative AI technologies to automate and optimize engineering workflows, in alignment with the strategic objective of minimizing manual effort
  
  

What You Won’t Be Doing

• Pure people management; this position relies heavily on your business acumen and technical judgment
• Spending excessive time in meetings, committees, or administrative overhead; we have automated managerial tasks to enable you to concentrate on delivering business value through direct, hands-on contributions
• Proposing high-level strategies devoid of actionable implementation; your guidance must derive from product-level understanding
