Director of Learning Science, Learning; Remote

You've shaped an ambitious academic strategy and taken full ownership of its results. You've led visibly, not from the sidelines. And in learning science, you're not experimenting—you've created something tangible, delivered outcomes that validate its effectiveness, and earned credibility to present it publicly. If this describes you, 2 Hour Learning seeks its academic leader.

At 2 Hour Learning, we've developed a system enabling students to learn at double speed in only two hours per day. AI-driven tutoring, mastery-based advancement, and a fundamental shift away from traditional classroom design produce these results. The impact is remarkable. We now need a leader who can unify implementation across varied school frameworks, elevate academic leadership standards, and serve as the public advocate for a movement built on sound learning science.

This is not a theoretical academic position. It's a leadership imperative. You'll control the academic strategy in execution, establish rigorous standards, detect performance gaps, and guide exceptional teams toward measurable outcomes. You'll convert our scientific principles into operational rigor and champion this model globally.
