Associate, Alpha - $100,000/year USD

Trilogy
Joliet, IL
Are traditional schools failing kids by teaching to them instead of with them?

At Alpha Schools, we're replacing lectures and textbooks with AI-powered adaptive learning and peer-level mentorship. Students progress at their own pace. You guide them to discover their strengths, not deliver scripted lessons.

This role demands high performers who want to channel that drive into fixing a broken system. You won't grade papers or follow a curriculum. You'll lead workshops, ignite curiosity, and prove that learning knows no bounds when students own their education.

Phoenix: 300+ sunny days and outdoor lifestyle combined with affordable living.

Austin: A tech hub with vibrant culture, green spaces, and a dynamic food scene.

Lead learning. Love growing. Apply now.

  • Using AI and adaptive learning tools to personalize education paths—students progress at their own pace, you guide discovery
  • Designing and lead life-skills workshops (public speaking, goal-setting, collaboration) that prepare students for lifelong success
  • Fostering a culture of curiosity, ambition, and growth—help students identify their strengths and interests
