Instructional Designer

Robots can do amazing things - if they can see. Apera AI builds breakthrough vision systems that give robots the clarity to handle complex, real-world tasks. But robots don't learn or see on their own. That's where you come in.

We're looking for a Instructional/Learning Experience Designer who turns complexity into clarity. Someone who can craft both interactive digital courses and dynamic live workshops that take customers from curious to confident. You'll design how the world learns robotic vision: in factories, labs, and classrooms across the globe.

This isn't a typical instructional design role. It's broader, faster, and closer to the cutting edge. At Apera AI, you'll create learning that drives adoption, retention, and measurable ROI for some of the most advanced robotics vision systems on the planet.

Design and build. Create immersive e-learning modules (Articulate, Captivate, Storyline) and live workshop assets that make complex robotics training simple, visual, and repeatable.

Accelerate adoption. Build blended learning programs that cut time-to-proficiency for operators and technicians by 30% or more.

Empower trainers. Develop instructor guides, job aids, and visual playbooks that help our global training partners deliver at scale.

Integrate AI and analytics. Use data to personalize learning and continuously improve outcomes.

Collaborate cross-functionally. Work with Product, Engineering, Customer Success, Sales, and Marketing to ensure every learning experience evolves with every product release.

At Apera AI, training is the bridge between invention and impact. When you build learning experiences here, you don't just teach or transfer knowledge, you make industrial transformation possible.

This is a rare convergence of creativity, technology, and purpose. The courses and materials you help design will:

• Turn cutting-edge robotic vision into dependable factory tools.

• Enable global manufacturers to move from trial to trusted deployment.

• Directly accelerate how fast Apera AI becomes the industry standard for robot vision.

You'll help build a learning ecosystem from the ground up, one that scales globally and defines how humans and machines learn to collaborate. Within a year, you'll have tangible results in the field: faster adoption curves, reduced support load, measurable gains in uptime and safety, and a growing reputation as the person who made it all possible.

If you've ever wanted a role where your design skills unlock real-world impact - where your work literally helps robots see - this is it. This is the kind of role that can redefine your portfolio, your expertise, and your career trajectory.

Purpose with impact. You're not designing slides — you're shaping how the world builds, ships, and moves.

Freedom to innovate. No stale manuals or copy-paste content. You'll invent new ways to teach robotics vision and see your ideas in action.

Growth at the frontier. Learn side-by-side with experts in robotics, AI, vision, and automation while mastering next-gen learning analytics.

A culture that values curiosity. Fresh ideas, smart risk-taking, and creative experimentation are part of the DNA.

Experience designing technical or product training (online and live).

Proficiency with e-learning tools (Articulate, Captivate, Storyline, Canva).

Ability to tailor content for diverse learners — from operators to engineers to executives.

Bonus points for experience in robotics, industrial automation, or B2B tech.

Above all: clarity, creativity, curiosity, and a passion for helping others feel smart.

• Every employee is an owner — equity for all.

• A culture of experimentation and shared learning.

• Well-funded with a recent Series A and trusted by Tier-1 automotive leaders.

• High-impact work with autonomy and a clear path to grow.

The salary for this role is $90,000 to $120,000 CAD, depending on experience and level of proficiency with the tools mentioned above.

At Apera AI, every employee owns equity, because those who build the future should share in its upside.
