Who You Are
You are a creative, analytical educator who understands how adults absorb complex information. You aren't interested in passive slide-turners; you are passionate about building highly interactive, immersive, and scenario-based computer-based training (CBT) modules. You are a collaborative designer who enjoys sitting down with domain experts to extract their deep knowledge and mold it into engaging learning pathways.
What You'll Do (Key Responsibilities)
Design Excellence: Lead the instructional design lifecycle—from needs analysis and storyboarding to final evaluation—using ADDIE and SAM models.
Develop Interactive Media: Build rich, engaging CBT/WBT courses utilizing authoring tools like Articulate Storyline, Adobe Captivate, or Lectora.
Ensure Standards: Ensure all e-learning courses are Section 508 compliant and adhere strictly to SCORM, xAPI, and LMS deployment standards.
Collaborate with SMEs: Work hand-in-hand with federal stakeholders, instructors, and Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to translate complex tactical aviation or maritime safety concepts into clear, educational designs.
What You Bring (Qualifications)
Experience: Minimum of 2 years of experience in instructional design, specifically focused on computer-based training (CBT) and web-based modules.
Credentials: Professional certification in Instructional Design, Education, or Training and Development.
Tech Skills: Mastery of Articulate Storyline, Adobe Captivate, or similar rapid-authoring systems.
Clearance: Ability to obtain and maintain a federal background suitability check.

Comprehensive Health: Competitive medical, dental, and vision options (BCBS CareFirst), plus HSA and FSA.
Financial Protection: 401(k) with corporate match, and fully paid life and disability insurance.
Work-Life Harmony: Generous PTO, 11 paid federal holidays, and 6 weeks of fully paid parental leave.
Professional & Personal Growth: Up to $5,000 annually in tuition assistance or student loan repayment, plus $200/year "Get Out and Learn" and $200/year "Get Out and Run" micro-benefits.
