Head Coach, Alpha - $150,000/year USD

On-site at an Alpha campus: Atlanta, GA Oklahoma City, OK Tulsa, OK Austin, TX Keller (Fort Worth), TX The Woodlands (Houston), TX $150,000/year W2 salary, paid weekly. Day‑one health benefits. Relocation support available The most powerful support you can offer a student who earned 99% is to say they haven’t passed yet. If that statement makes you uncomfortable, this role isn’t for you. If it resonates, read on. Alpha students complete their academic learning in two hours daily using AI‑driven, self‑directed applications. There are no teachers, no lectures, and no need to manage classroom instruction. This structure allows you to focus on what genuinely shifts outcomes: facilitating dynamic workshops on public speaking, concentration, and feedback; using real‑time data to ensure every student meets their learning targets; and mentoring the Guides working with you on campus. A typical morning could begin with a one‑on‑one mentoring conversation with a Guide, analyzing performance metrics and pinpointing where a group is underperforming. By midday you’re delivering a live session with students, executing a structured activity on giving and receiving feedback. Afternoons are spent on motivation work: engaging individual students, identifying what motivates them, and applying Alpha’s incentive framework to re‑engage a struggling 7th grader. You manage your own cohort alongside your coaching responsibilities, ensuring you remain proficient in the competencies you’re developing in others. You’ve likely been the outlier in educational environments: overly data‑oriented, excessively results‑driven, and ready to question conventional approaches with students. Alpha may be the first environment that aligns with your strengths. You’ll begin coaching other Guides immediately, and as you produce measurable outcomes at scale, your authority over campus‑wide program standards expands. Uphold the standard. Transform the student. Apply now.

Students complete academic work through self‑guided applications without direct adult instruction. Creating curriculum or developing original lesson plans. The playbook is established; success requires faithful execution, not innovation. Coaching Guides on instructional methods. Guides don’t instruct, so your coaching centers on energy, motivation, and accountability. Accepting 99% when the standard is 100%.
