Vice President of Product Engineering, 2 Hour Learning (Remote) - $400,000/year USD

Are you a technically rigorous product leader eager to pioneer the transformation of education using AI? 2 Hour Learning seeks a technical architect to spearhead the evolution of our AI-driven learning platform. This position demands someone with the technical discipline of a CTO, the strategic foresight to catalyze transformational impact, and the dedication to apply these capabilities toward unlocking student potential on an unprecedented scale.

Most organizations append AI to conventional education frameworks as a secondary consideration. 2 Hour Learning has taken a fundamentally different approach: we have reconstructed the school paradigm from its foundation, leveraging AI and learning science to eliminate the limitations inherent in traditional classrooms. Our students don\’t merely advance — they excel, earning numerous 4s and 5s on AP examinations, demonstrating multi-year academic progress within a single year, and routinely surpassing their own projections. We have validated that when AI functions as the central operating system of education, student performance accelerates dramatically.

This is not a conventional product management position centered on customer feedback mechanisms or iterative feature releases. This is an executive‑level technical product ownership role in which you will control the architecture, technical roadmap, and AI integration across our entire learning infrastructure. You will be accountable for navigating complex technical tradeoffs that keep our products streamlined, scalable, and intensely focused on advancing student outcomes. You will operate with the mindset of a CTO while executing with the agility of a product entrepreneur, merging engineering rigor with learning science principles to sustain continuous innovation.

If you are prepared to drive the technical transformation of education and possess the operational determination to support that vision, we invite your application. This is your chance to architect the future of learning.

What You Will Be Doing

• Cultivating and demonstrating comprehensive education product expertise to inform strategic direction
• Authoring technical specifications that resolve critical technical challenges and emphasize simplicity, performance, and sustainable architecture
• Deploying generative AI technologies to automate and optimize engineering workflows, consistent with the strategic objective of minimizing manual intervention

What You Won’t Be Doing

• Managing people exclusively; this role relies heavily on your business insight and technical depth
• Expending effort on meetings, committees, and administrative overhead; we have streamlined management processes to enable you to concentrate on delivering business impact through direct contribution
• Proposing high-level strategies detached from execution; your guidance must be grounded in product-level intelligence

Vice President Of Product Engineering Key Responsibilities
