Instructional Designer

The Instructional Designer will design and build digital, simulation-based training materials that allow personnel to safely practice technical maintenance and troubleshooting tasks for a complex military system. This role focuses exclusively on interactive media creation using Adobe Animate, HTML, JavaScript, and supporting tools — no prior radar experience is required. You will transform technical procedures provided by subject matter experts into interactive, step by step digital experiences that visually demonstrate processes and allow user driven practice.

The role requires strong multimedia production skills, front end development capability, and an ability to collaborate with engineers and technical personnel. This position is located in Lawton, OK.

Develop high-quality interactive training modules and simulation-based content using Adobe Animate, HTML, and JavaScript.

Manipulate and prepare visual assets using Adobe Photoshop, including images, text overlays, and diagram refinements. Modify and maintain project build scripts using Power Shell to support packaging, deployment, or updates to interactive content.

Collaborate closely with subject matter experts to convert technical steps and workflows into clear, accurate digital interactions. Ensure user interfaces, animations, and interactions are intuitive, responsive, and aligned with training objectives. Participate in iterative development cycles, incorporating feedback from testers and SMEs. Assist in maintaining file structures, media libraries, and version controlled digital assets. Be available for limited travel as needed (no current travel expected).
