About Oboe

Oboe's goal is simple: teach one billion people one trillion things. We'll do that by building the world's first completely generalized AI-powered learning platform. Today, so much of our focus is spent on making machines smarter. At Oboe, we believe it’s time for machines to make humans smarter.

We’re a small but mighty team made up of builders who love learning, being challenged, and changing the world. If that kind of job appeals to you, we should talk.

The Role

We’re looking for an Learning Content Editor who will help define how Oboe teaches, across every subject, every format, and every vertical.

This is a hands-on role with a heavy emphasis on pattern recognition. You’ll review Oboe content, spot what’s working (and what’s not), and translate those insights into the rules and structures that help our AI produce clearer, more consistent, more engaging content at scale.

You won’t be manually polishing every piece. You’ll be shaping the underlying systems that generate millions of pieces.

You should be the kind of person who gets genuinely energized by diving into unfamiliar subjects. If we need to improve our geology content tomorrow, you should jump in, figure out what great geology content looks like (how to make it rock 🤘🪨 ), and bring that same curiosity the next day to accounting, French cinema, or quantum computing.

If you love clarity, frameworks, iteration, and learning, you’ll thrive here.

What You’ll Do

  • Help define the rules and structures that guide how Oboe’s AI produces content across formats (articles, podcasts, video scripts, quizzes, and more).

  • Review AI-generated outputs to identify patterns, strengths, and weaknesses — then translate those insights into updated guidelines and prompt improvements.

  • Refine Oboe’s editorial standards, tone rules, and teaching frameworks for consistency across all verticals.

  • Develop evaluation methods and scalable quality systems (checklists, examples, best practices) that help us assess content quickly and accurately.

  • Compare multiple AI-generated iterations and distill the patterns that consistently lead to strong content.

  • Work closely with the team to give structured and actionable feedback.

  • Surface insights about which formats work best for specific concepts or learning moments.

  • Jump into new subjects and formats with energy and flexibility as the product evolves.

You’ll Thrive in This Role If You Have… (Must Haves)

  • 3-5 years of experience in editorial work, content development, writing, or learning content.

  • Experience working across multiple content types (e.g., articles, books, podcasts, videos).

  • A love of challenges.

  • The ability to think naturally in patterns and frameworks (i.e. you enjoy turning qualitative findings into structured rules).

  • Experience experimenting with a variety of AI tools, an understanding of their strengths and limitations, and excitement about a future where AI can scale high-quality learning to millions.

  • Comfort in a fast-moving startup with evolving processes and plenty of ambiguity.

  • Organizational skills and the ability to manage a large volume of content consistently.

Nice to Haves

  • Experience with instructional design, curriculum development, or teaching.

  • Experience creating multimedia content (podcasts, video scripts, short educational content).

  • Familiarity with building or using editorial style guides and QA systems.

  • Interest in how different formats teach differently (audio, text, visual, interactive).
