Job description

• OneTrust is seeking a Principal Learning Experience Designer to architect and scale high‑impact, release‑driven digital education for complex SaaS products. This is a senior‑level individual contributor role for a proven learning architect who thrives in fast‑moving environments and sets the standard for quality, speed, and scalability.
• In this role, you will be the studio’s learning design authority and quality multiplier, building flagship eLearning, converting instructor‑led content into scalable self‑directed experiences, and creating reusable design patterns that allow learning to move in lockstep with product releases. You will combine strong instructional design judgment with hands‑on execution, helping customers and partners quickly adopt new functionality and realize value from OneTrust’s platform.

• Architect and deliver rapid, release‑synchronous eLearning for technical SaaS products, using modern authoring tools (primarily Rise)
• Convert ILT/VILT and SME‑led content into high‑quality, self‑directed digital learning that scales globally
• Design and maintain net‑new, release‑maintenance, and delta‑training modules that clearly communicate what changed, why it matters, and how to apply it
• Build microlearning (≤15 minutes)
• Create high‑quality demo and how‑to videos with AI audio, that teach real workflows, use cases, and best practices
• Own and evolve reusable learning templates, patterns, and standards that ensure consistency, accessibility, and speed across the education portfolio
• Partner with product SMEs, trainers, and education leaders to translate complex functionality into clear, outcome‑driven learning
• Apply and enforce accessibility (WCAG) standards and inclusive/neurodiverse design practices
