Instructional Designer

About EliseAI

EliseAI develops cutting-edge agentic AI technology for industries fundamental to our lives: housing and healthcare. Everything is built on the foundation of health and home. Broken systems or ineffective processes in these domains have a disproportionate impact on our quality of life and society’s overall wellbeing. Conversely, any solution or technology that solves problems in these areas will have an impact that ripples far beyond them.

That’s the only kind of impact we are interested in having at EliseAI. If you get excited by the thought of working really hard on these kinds of problems, then EliseAI is the right place for you.

We recently raised a $250 million Series E round led by Andreessen Horowitz to accelerate this mission.

About the role

You’ll collaborate closely with subject matter experts across product, engineering, marketing, and client-facing teams to create clear, effective learning content—from in-depth guides and product walkthroughs to internal training modules and scalable enablement assets.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-moving environment, loves translating complex ideas into intuitive learning experiences, and wants to shape how knowledge is scaled across teams and clients.

• Partner with subject matter experts and cross-functional teams to co-create accurate, relevant learning content

• Leverage Figma to design clean, branded layouts, prototypes, and learning templates.

• Use motion and visual storytelling to make key concepts memorable and easy to grasp.

• Conduct needs assessments, learner research, and usability testing to ensure solutions drive measurable impact

• Establish and evolve frameworks, templates, and systems to accelerate design outcomes and improve scalability

• Regularly audit and iterate content to ensure accessibility, usability, and alignment with business goals

Requirements

• 3–5 years of experience in instructional design, learning experience design, or enablement in a SaaS or tech environment

• Strong understanding of adult learning principles, instructional design best practices, and performance-based learning

• Proficiency in Figma for visual design, prototyping, and collaboration

• Experience with e-learning and motion design tools (e.g., Articulate 360, Rise, Storyline, Camtasia, After Effects, Premiere Pro)

• Ability to translate technical and operational concepts into intuitive learning assets.

• Excellent communication and storytelling skills across visual, written, and verbal mediums

• Ability to work autonomously, manage multiple priorities, and thrive in a fast-paced, evolving environment

• Familiarity with accessibility standards (WCAG), SCORM/xAPI, and learner feedback loops

• Willingness to work in person at our NYC office 4-5 days a week

Bonus if you have

• A degree in Instructional Design, Interaction Design, HCI, or a related visual or digital design field

• Experience designing education or onboarding experiences for B2B SaaS

• Background in motion, interaction, or visual storytelling

• Experience with LMS platforms (e.g., Skilljar, Lessonly, WorkRamp) and performance evaluation frameworks like Kirkpatrick or Bloom’s Taxonomy
