BILT partners with manufacturers and retailers to reduce support costs, accelerate onboarding, and improve customer experience through immersive visual instruction technology.

BILT is building the future of skilled trades education. We need an instructional designer who can translate complex HVAC systems, procedures, and concepts into clear, structured, learnable content. The role involves designing a foundational HVAC 101 course for the BILT platform’s 3D animated instruction format and collaborating with subject matter experts to capture real‑world procedures.

• Design and develop a comprehensive HVAC 101 course curriculum covering foundational systems, components, tools, safety, and core maintenance procedures.
• Write step‑by‑step instructional content for BILT’s 3D animated instruction platform.
• Define learning objectives, course structure, and assessment criteria aligned to industry certification standards (EPA 608, NATE, or equivalent).
• Collaborate with BILT’s product and animation teams to translate written procedures into visual, animated instruction sets.
• Ensure all content meets employer and workforce standards so graduates are genuinely job‑ready.

• Experience designing technical or trades‑based instructional content; HVAC experience strongly preferred.
• Familiarity with HVAC systems: refrigeration cycles, electrical, airflow, controls, and service procedures.
• Strong writing and communication skills; able to explain complex procedures to novices.
• Experience working with subject matter experts to extract and structure technical knowledge.
• Familiarity with instructional design frameworks (ADDIE, backwards design, or equivalent).
• Comfortable working in a fast‑moving, startup environment with evolving requirements.
• Experience with LMS platforms, mobile learning, or visual/animated instruction is a plus.
• HVAC industry certifications (EPA 608, NATE) or hands‑on field experience is a strong plus.

• HVAC 101 course outline and full learning objective map completed and approved.
• At least two complete modules of step‑by‑step instructional content delivered and ready for animation.
• Content validated by at least one industry partner or employer for job‑readiness alignment.
