About PRISM Learning / e-GMAT

PRISM Learning is the company behind e-GMAT — the brand that pioneered online test prep in the GMAT space and remains the undisputed #1 prep company in this category.

Founded by alumni of IIT Delhi and BITS Pilani, e-GMAT was built at the intersection of learning science, pedagogy, data, and technology. Our co-founder Payal Tandon — the world's #1 GMAT instructor — has guided tens of thousands of students to their target scores. But here's what sets us apart: rather than scaling through more instructors, we've translated her expertise and proven learning pedagogy directly into our AI-powered products.

Every student gets the benefit of world-class instruction, delivered through technology that adapts to how they learn.

Key stat:
Over the last five years, e-GMAT has sent more students to M7 business schools and ISB than any other prep company in the world. We serve 10,000+ paying students every year with a team of just 10 people.

We're now expanding beyond GMAT into GRE, LSAT, SAT, IB curriculum, and other learning domains — and we need someone who can architect the learning systems that will power this expansion.

This Is Not a Teaching Role

Let's be direct about what this role is and isn't.

This is a building role. You will architect learning systems — designing how courses work, what skills they develop, in what sequence, how progress is measured, and how the system adapts to different learners. You will use AI to create content  will look at data to evaluate what's working and what isn't, and you will iterate relentlessly.

This is not a teaching role. You won't be standing in front of a classroom. You won't be recording video lectures. You won't be the "expert" who knows everything about a subject. In fact, we specifically don't want a domain expert. We want a systems thinker who can architect learning experiences across any domain — because the domain expertise lives in AI models and in our subject matter experts.

What doesn't live anywhere except in the right person's head is the ability to design systems that take a 20th percentile student to the 95th percentile.

The difference between a teacher and a coach matters here. A teacher delivers content uniformly — the same lesson for every student, focused on right vs. wrong. A coach does something fundamentally different: they diagnose where each individual is strong and weak, do causal analysis on why the gaps exist, pull success factors from strong areas to fix weak ones, and create personalized improvement plans.

This role requires the coaching mindset, not the teaching mindset.

This Role Isn't for Everyone

You'll be building learning systems across multiple domains — GMAT, GRE, LSAT, IB curriculum, and more. These systems will be responsible for the outcomes of thousands of students. When a course isn't producing results, it's on you to figure out why — is the skill sequencing wrong? Are the evaluation gates too loose? Is the system not adapting properly for different starting levels?

We're a 10-person team. There's no hiding behind layers of management, no passing problems to "another department." You will work hard — harder than you have in most roles — because what you build has real, measurable impact on real students.

This role is for you if:

- You're a builder at heart — you'd rather design a system than deliver a lecture
- You think in systems, sequences, and dependencies — not in topics and chapters
- You've built something you're proud of — a course, a training program, a learning system, a process — and you can explain why it worked
- You're a continuous learner with an insatiable appetite for understanding how things work
- You believe that a well-architected product should work for the 20th percentile student AND the 80th percentile student — through intelligent design, not through more content
- You're comfortable with AI and excited about using it to build at scale
- You thrive on intensity, ownership, and the challenge of making things better every day

This role is NOT for you if:

- You see yourself as a subject matter expert first — someone whose value comes from knowing a domain deeply
- You love teaching and…
