Texas EMS School is seeking a resourceful, technology‑minded professional to help build and improve online courses for future emergency medical services professionals.

Working closely with a subject matter expert, you will turn instructional content into organized, functional, student‑friendly courses in Canvas, our learning management system. We need someone who can learn software thoroughly, explore its capabilities, troubleshoot problems, and make steady, timely progress.

Experience building or managing course content in a learning management system is required. Canvas experience is preferred, but we will consider candidates with relevant experience in another LMS who can learn Canvas quickly. EMS or clinical expertise is not required; you will work with experts who provide and validate that content.

This position works in person at our Abilene, Texas, location. Remote work is not available.

• Work with subject matter experts to convert content, notes, and feedback into clear online learning experiences.
• Explore and configure LMS features that support effective instruction and student progress.
• Investigate technical problems, reproduce reported issues, test possible solutions, and document findings.
• Distinguish among configuration issues, user misunderstandings, and possible software defects; seek vendor assistance when appropriate.
• Test courses from the student’s perspective, checking navigation, instructions, links, assessments, and completion requirements.
• Write and edit clear student instructions, short explanations, and internal documentation using correct English grammar and punctuation.
• Maintain consistent formatting, usability, and accessibility in course materials.
• Communicate progress, identify missing information, and raise obstacles early.
• Assist with Word Press website updates and development as skills and organizational needs allow.

• Hands‑on experience building, editing, or managing instructional content in a learning management system—not solely using one as a student.
• Ability to learn unfamiliar software and independently investigate how its features work.
• A practical, organized approach to troubleshooting and problem‑solving.
