Job Description

We are looking for a Middle / Senior Learning Designer to join the Plata team.

This role sits at the intersection of corporate learning, product thinking, and business impact. It’s not about building courses strictly based on a predefined brief — it’s about working with uncertainty, defining learning problems, and designing solutions that truly move business metrics.

We value professionals who are genuinely interested in corporate L&D, comfortable working with data and hypotheses, and capable of finding solutions even when information is incomplete or evolving.

Challenges that await you:

  • Design and develop corporate learning solutions aligned with business and product needs.
  • Define learning goals, outcomes, and success metrics, ensuring training initiatives drive measurable impact.
  • Work with learning and business metrics, evaluating training effectiveness and performance indicators.
  • Apply strong learning design principles to create scalable and effective learning experiences.
  • Approach learning initiatives with a product mindset, answering:
    “Why are we doing this and what outcome do we expect?”
  • Formulate, test, and iterate learning hypotheses based on data and stakeholder input.
  • Make informed decisions under incomplete or contradictory data, balancing speed and quality.
  • Collaborate with business stakeholders to identify skill gaps and performance opportunities.
  • Contribute to the evolution of corporate learning systems in a fast-growing environment.

What makes you a great fit:

  • Proven experience in B2B or corporate learning (mandatory).
  • Experience working as a Methodologist, Instructional Designer, or Learning Experience Designer at Middle or Senior level.
  • Ideally, experience across both EdTech and corporate environments.
  • Strong understanding of learning design methodologies and frameworks.
  • Experience working with learning effectiveness metrics and business impact indicators.
  • Product mindset with the ability to connect learning initiatives to business outcomes.
  • Experience working with hypothesis-driven learning design (formulation, validation, iteration).
  • Strong systems thinking and structured problem-solving skills.
  • Ability to operate in ambiguity and make decisions with limited data.
  • Strong working proficiency in English (daily collaboration with international teams).

Nice to Have:

  • Spanish proficiency.
  • Experience working with fast-growing products or scaling learning systems.
  • Experience collaborating closely with cross-functional business stakeholders.
  • Clear understanding of how learning initiatives impact business metrics (beyond training delivery).
