About the role - Program Manager, Learning department
We are launching Scaler in the US soon. The role would involve working directly with the
Instructor Lead, BU Heads, Founders, COO, the Ops team, the CTO, the tech team, and the
stakeholders in the United States to ensure that learners in the US Scaler Academy (students)
have very high satisfaction (measured by Net Promoter Score - NPS). The role has a mix of
driving new initiatives and process creation, refining existing processes, analyzing data, and
managing stakeholders.
Key responsibilities would involve:
Designing new initiatives and processes - e.g., creation of a data-backed rule-engine to
ensure that the right learners are clubbed together in batches to ensure highest learning
outcomes.
Refine existing processes - e.g., collecting, analyzing, and actioning feedback across 100+
classes did per month to drive improvements in instructor teaching and classroom
experience
Analyzing data across live classes and recorded classes to generate insights on student
learning style, when to schedule remedial classes etc.
Working across 30+ stakeholders across instructors, tech, ops, business heads to drive
initiatives
Preferred experience: 3+ years of experience in a program manager role or any role that requires working in ambiguous problems and working effectively with multiple stakeholders with a
distinctive track record of impact.
Preferred skillsets:
Excellent verbal and written communication skills
Ability to work with ambiguity
Ability to work independently with limited need for supervision
Strong problem-solving skills
Must-have mindsets:
Tolerance for ambiguity: Not being fazed by challenges, be able to structure a
problem statement on your own
High ownership: You would own the problem and have a get-it-done mindset
Iterative problem-solving: Comfort around iterating on a problem statement
Obsession with process excellence: which translates to being independent and
detailed with all inputs and outputs
Caring and inspirational teammate: which translates to bringing the best out of
every colleague, always :)
Why Scaler
Empowering role: You get a front-row seat to a high-growth, fast-paced B2C+B2B
business in a role that expects you to learn and contribute specifically in high-impact
initiatives critical to our trajectory.
Distinctive team: Our team is an inspiration powerhouse built with the best of
Facebook, Google, Twitter, McKinsey, BCG, Sequoia Capital, Bain Capital and Hotstar to
name a few.
Unicorn trajectory: Unlike 99% of startups, we believe in sustainable growth. No
wonder, we are profitable and on course to be a unicorn in the next 24-36 months.
Marquee investors: Our investors are marquee firms such as Sequoia Capital (Investors
in Google, Apple, and Cisco) and Tiger Global (a major investor in Flipkart). We are also
backed by the Singapore govt along with other strategic angel investors.
Culture of a caring meritocracy with great perks: A caring meritocracy built by
inspirational leaders; free food, health insurance, and ultra-chic office space.
Market-leading compensation: If we like you, we will make sure you like our offer :)
