Youth Development Coach, Alpha

You have completed difficult challenges and understand the difference between attempting something and delivering results. If you are ready to apply that discipline in a role that shifts a young person's path, this position is designed for you.

Alpha School deploys AI‑powered 1:1 learning, enabling students to complete core academics in roughly two hours per day. The remaining time is dedicated to life skills, passion‑driven projects, and meaningful development. At our most demanding campuses, students require more than oversight; they require a credible mentor who can assess the environment, establish expectations, and guide them through resistance, distraction, and uncertainty.

• Conduct 1:1 and small‑group coaching sessions that convert student objectives into reliable execution and quantifiable results.
• Leverage analytics and student objectives to identify obstacles and establish ambitious, personalized motivation strategies.
• Facilitate demanding life‑skills workshops through authentic storytelling, guided reflection, and practical application, followed by mastery evaluation.
• Direct daily opening sessions that establish culture, uphold high expectations, and prepare students before work begins.
• Build trusted mentor relationships with students and families by maintaining high standards, consistency, and strong judgment.

• Deliver traditional classroom instruction, lectures, or academic tutoring.
• Develop curriculum, prepare lesson plans, or evaluate student assignments.
• Supervise adult staff, oversee campus operations, or assume administrative leadership responsibilities.
• Compromise standards to achieve short‑term compliance or superficial progress.

• Bachelor's degree in any field.
• At least one clear elite marker (athletics, academics, career achievement, or elite coaching).
• Experience in people‑facing mentoring, coaching, or leadership that measurably raised others' performance.
• Comfort operating in high‑accountability environments with clear standards and follow‑through.
• Ability to lead engaging, high‑rigor group sessions and coach individuals with strong judgment.
• Willingness to work full‑time (40 hours/week) in person at Alpha's Austin campus.
• Legal right to work in the U.S.

• Multiple elite markers with clear evidence of raising standards and outcomes.
• Experience using data and analytics to drive coaching plans and accountability.
• Background in selective firms, competitive startups, or elite athletics programs with intense performance expectations.
