Senior Interior Designer   $100,000 USD/year

Description

You can step into a room and immediately sense whether it's been thoughtfully composed or hastily assembled. You register lighting warmth, spatial clutter, visible cables, seating arrangements, and ambient tone. Once you spot the flaws, you can't look away. If you're ready to establish what a "high-performance school" should look and feel like, this is your opportunity to lead that definition.

2 Hour Learning is creating AI-powered private schools where students complete core academics in two hours daily, then dedicate afternoons to life skills and passion-based pursuits. As campuses roll out nationwide, the physical spaces must reflect the vision: composed, purposeful, unconventional, and unmistakably refined. This role is responsible for establishing that benchmark and ensuring its replicability across all locations.

You will establish the design direction, transform it into spatial plans that depart from conventional classroom layouts, and document standards to prevent brand dilution during growth. This is not about coordinating vendors or overseeing facilities. It is focused, high-judgment design work under real constraints with direct organizational impact.

If you possess the discernment to shape a new category and the execution speed to deliver without compromise, we want to hear from you.

What you will be doing

  • Developing comprehensive campus design vision packages (philosophy, mood boards, material palettes, lighting character, furniture strategies) that communicate refinement and reject conventional school aesthetics
  • Generating detailed spatial layouts that support adaptable learning environments, efficient circulation, and coherent lighting and environmental logic
  • Establishing and maintaining design frameworks and boundaries that preserve campus consistency while accommodating varied floor plans
  • Executing rapid iteration on active campuses by identifying improvement opportunities and producing prioritized action lists that enhance finish quality without disrupting timelines

What you will NOT be doing

  • Coordinating vendors, selecting contractors, or handling purchasing functions
  • Supervising construction activity, maintenance tasks, or executive facilities management
  • Creating generic, "pleasant" private school interiors with bold primary tones and institutional materials
  • Pursuing ideal outcomes at the expense of launch schedules

Key responsibilities

This role is accountable for ensuring each campus launches and matures with a category-defining, refined, unconventional physical environment that remains consistent as the organization scales.

Candidate requirements

  • Minimum 3 years of professional experience in interior, spatial, environmental, or experiential design disciplines
  • Portfolio demonstrating premium physical environments (such as hospitality, luxury residential, boutique commercial, cruise ship, or experiential projects)
  • Demonstrated capability to independently produce mood boards and comprehensive conceptual direction for spaces
  • Demonstrated capability to develop spatial layouts that enhance flow, density, and user experience
  • Deep knowledge of materials and lighting (finishes, texture, lighting tone, and their emotional impact)
  • Refined aesthetic judgment supported by clear examples of restraint, proportion, and attention to detail
  • Proficiency with AI tools or strong track record of quickly adopting emerging design technologies
  • Eligibility to work in the United States in a hybrid arrangement requiring 50–70% travel to campus sites

Nice to have

  • Background designing scalable multi-location environments supported by clear standards and templates
  • Background designing unconventional learning, community, or wellness environments featuring flexible seating configurations
  • Proficient rapid visualization and rendering abilities that accelerate concept iteration and stakeholder decision-making
