The Interaction Design Foundation is recruiting a Course Director to decide what hundreds of thousands of designers learn next, recruit leading instructors, and lead course production for UX, UI, and AI.
Role focuses on what to teach and who teaches it: planning course outlines, selecting instructors, and overseeing production with Education Designers.
IxDF is a large, established online design education platform with over a million enrollments and partnerships with major organizations and universities.
You’ll work directly with top practitioners (including Don Norman and other industry leads) and a small, fast-moving editorial team.
# What this posting is about Foundation (IxDF) is hiring a Course Director for UX, UI, and AI. The role is editorial and curricular: you decide what belongs in IxDF's curriculum, who should teach it, and help produce the video-based courses and Master Classes the organization publishes worldwide.
# Why this matters IxDF is one of the oldest and largest online design education institutions. It reports more than one million enrollments since 2002, 40+ courses, around 160 Master Classes, and collaborations with industry and academic organizations. The Course Director role has direct influence over the learning pathways millions of designers use, and it puts you in contact with recognized design leaders.
# What the Course Director does day-to-day
# Who they're looking for
# How the team is organized IxDF is expanding its editorial team and is hiring three roles at once: Course Director (this role), Education Designer (who plans how topics are taught and structures learning outcomes), and Course Writer/Editor (who crafts the written course experience). While each role has distinct responsibilities, everyone on the team helps create courses and may work across roles when needed.
# Scale and credibility
These points are used to convey reach and credibility for course authors and instructors.
# Team culture and expectations The posting emphasizes fast decision-making, a low-distance environment between idea and action, and the opportunity for initiative and growth. It explicitly contrasts that environment with long internal debates or political struggles.
# Practical next steps for applicants Apply for the role that best matches your strengths. If you're torn between roles, pick the one you'd be best at and explain in your application which other role you considered and why. Expect to engage in outreach to senior practitioners, critique and refine course outlines, and coordinate recording sessions.
# What this role changes for learners A Course Director who can identify enduring human-centered skills and integrate up-to-date AI-related practices will influence the focus of future IxDF courses and Master Classes. That shapes what designers worldwide learn about UX, UI, and AI integration.
