This position is based in Chicago, IL. Our approach to flexible work is centered on trust and optimized for culture, connection, clarity, and the evolving needs of our business. The work location of this role is hybrid, meaning it will be performed both from home and from a LinkedIn office on select days, as determined by the business needs of the team.

About the role

The Instructional Designer creates high-impact, AI-optimized, modular learning experiences that help LinkedIn customers adopt new behaviors and realize measurable value. This role is ideal for a curious, adaptable builder who is comfortable testing new approaches, learning emerging tools, and iterating quickly as customer needs, products, and priorities evolve.

You will lead efforts to determine learning objectives, establish clear timelines for deliverables, gather key requirements from partners and product teams, recommend the best format to suit the learner experience, and create learning assets that serve core customer needs. You will work in an iterative, feedback-driven environment where priorities and product needs may change quickly. Success requires balancing speed, quality, customer impact, and long-term content sustainability.

To thrive in this role, you must demonstrate critical thinking to solve complex problems within established guidelines, plus innovative techniques to shorten development cycles and meet tight deadlines. You must also demonstrate excellent writing skills and adhere to established development guidelines and templates while increasing the effectiveness of learning deliverables. This role requires thriving in a matrixed environment, working cross-collaboratively with peers to achieve shared goals. Establishing rapport and mutually beneficial relationships with stakeholders is key to success. Self-direction paired with transparent communication is a must.
