Your Role at IxDF
Be a core part of our Editorial Team.
Design for a diverse, global audience.Â
Make an impact as you decide how the courses you lead come together.
 You establish what a course participant should be able to do by the end of a course, then you plan, structure, and create the core content that gets them there. What comes first, what builds on what, and how people level up step by step with ease and joy from confused to competent. You'll work across UX design, human-computer interaction, design thinking, UI design, psychology, and AI.
- Design the exercises, portfolio activities, design templates, and assessments thatÂ
turn passive watching into active designing
Set and raise the standard for our assessments,Â
Make expert knowledge understandable.
You help produce Master Classes.Â
Timelines vary enormously
: with Don Norman or Vitaly Friedman it can be two weeks from first email to publication, because we work with them often. With a new expert, it can be half a year. Once the session is recorded, you get the footage and the transcript, and you decide with the Course Directors and Team Lead which existing course benefits from which snippets, and where they go.
- YouÂ
plan the course content in collaboration with the global industry leaders
fly out to meet them in professional studios across the world
 we shoot 4-6 new courses per year.
Our courses combine written and video lessons.Â
Balance the big picture with the smaller details.Â
one large course creation project per quarter
Find room for improvementÂ
Maintain and improve our crystal-clear documentationÂ
You won't do this alone.Â
Weâre committed toâ¯excellence,
 and we seek a like-minded enthusiast to join us. This role isâ¯not for the average. Ahead of you is aâ¯highly rewarding and enriching journey.
- We're proud to have assembled aÂ
remarkable team of unicorns
About You
- You have at leastÂ
5 years of hands-on design experience
.
- You'veÂ
facilitated workshops
 repeatedly, run a beginner course, mentored designers, or built curricula for online courses.
- You canÂ
show us something you built
: a course, a workshop series, live Master Classes, an AI teaching app, or a mentoring program. Weâre excited to hear what it was, why you built it the way you did, and how long it took you to create.
- You can take aÂ
broad, complex design practice and turn it into a step-by-step learning sequence
 thatâll make a beginner feel and act confident.
- You can teach the same idea in different formats: a 60-minute workshop, a written lesson, a 90-second video. You know what a medium does well and what it can't carry, and you know what to cut when the format gets shorter.
- You're a
 practical idealist
. You know how to create great results through incremental quick wins and MVPs, and you know when to go all in and make something perfect.
- YouÂ
collaborate with AI in everything you do
 human leadership
outcome is 100% yoursÂ
and better than you could have created without AI.
- You know the difference betweenÂ
timeless human-centered design skills and skills in tools that change
. Youâre passionate about the first, because theyâre the most interesting to you and you know that AI will take over much of the tool-based design work soon. Youâre eager to help people build UX and UI skills because you know theyâre more relevant than ever in the age of AI.
- You canÂ
teach a career changer
guide an experienced designer
 in upskilling to a more senior role.
- You're genuinelyÂ
curious
 about how AI is changing design work and design education.
- You're kind, and you have theÂ
social intelligence and empathy
 to engage well with very different kinds of people.
- You'reÂ
fluent in written and spoken English
 and you can explain complex ideas clearly.
- Youâre enthusiastic about learning by doing and areÂ
committed to putting in the effort to continuously improve your skills
.
- YouÂ
spot problems
 before anyone else notices them, and when something goes off track you come back with a solution rather than a report.
- YouÂ
value teamwork
, prioritize collaboration, and focus on collective goals. You give constructive feedback that others can act on, and you take it the same way. When someone shows you how your idea could be better, you're interested rather than defensive.
- You'reÂ
self-motivated
creative freedom
independent judgment
responsibility
 that comes with both.
- Youâre driven by the desire toÂ
make a positive impact in the world
 and to improve the lives of others.
- Most of the work happens from yourÂ
home office,Â
willing to travel a few times a year
time zone

None of these are required, but each of them would make us even happier.
- You'veÂ
publishedÂ
spoken
 at design conferences.
- You've worked with anÂ
LMS or an online learning platform

built AI-supported learning

bachelor's or master's
 in UX, UI, AI, or a similar field.
- You have yourÂ
own blog or social media page
 where you create and share original content.

collaborated with video production teams

common mission
Our co-founder and co-CEO, Rikke, will work closely with you
. She and our other co-founder, Mads, built IxDF from nothing, with no investment capital, so we would stay free to make world-class design education affordable to everyone. She was the sole editor and video editor for many of our early years, so she's shaped our course planning, expert interviews, video shoots, and content editing from the inside. She's still hands-on in everything we do, and she still films educational videos herself, in places like the US, the North Pole, and Nepal.

full-time position

- A work culture with noÂ
fluffy titles, political agendas, or corporate drama

empower, and enrich the lives of millions of people

hands-on attitude and a bias towards action
crisp execution skills yourself
impress your colleagues with concrete results
, just like they'll impress you.

limitless opportunities with us.

forefront of teaching designers to work with AI and to design responsibly for it

 that shapes both the designers we teach and the people who use what they build. Together, we'll design a better world.
