• Develop high-quality learning content across formats including facilitated sessions, self-paced modules, toolkits, frameworks, and templates that managers can put to use immediately. 
• Partner closely with People Business Partners to identify capability gaps and translate them into learning solutions that are grounded in how the business actually operates. Use a train-the-trainer approach to leverage PBPs’ established trust and relationships in their embedded departments.
• Build and manage vendor and facilitator relationships where external expertise adds value. 
• Establish metrics to evaluate program effectiveness and use data to continuously improve. 
• Contribute to the broader talent strategy by bringing L&D perspective to how we attract, develop, and retain talent at Dragos.

• Experience in a technology, cybersecurity, or high-growth company environment.
• Familiarity with AI-enabled learning tools and how to apply them at scale.
