About the role

  • Design, develop, and maintain high-quality training content for Virtru’s Data Security Platform, including courses, hands-on labs, technical guides, and certification materials.
  • Translate complex technical concepts into clear, accessible learning materials for audiences of varying technical depth.
  • Build structured learning paths aligned to personas (Admins, Integrators, Architects, Developers, Partners, Internal Engineering/CS/PS teams).
  • Create modular, reusable content across multiple modalities: self-paced eLearning, instructor-led courses, virtual live sessions, microlearning, and scenario-based exercises.
  • Develop assessments, hands-on challenges, and troubleshooting scenarios to reinforce learning and validate proficiency.
  • Maintain a deep working knowledge of Virtru’s Data Security Platform, including policy engine behavior, TDF usage, data classification standards, and deployment best practices.
  • Work closely with CTO, Engineering, Product, and other SMEs to ensure all content reflects current capabilities, upcoming releases, and best-practice guidance.
  • Stay current on Data Security Platform (DSP) configuration and administration topics such as container-based deployments, installations and upgrade workflows, policy authoring, access evaluation logic, and operational troubleshooting.
  • Develop a strong understanding of DSP SDKs, integration workflows, developer/integrator design patterns, and common use cases supported by the SDKs to create training content that supports programmatic and embedded implementations.
  • Incorporate real customer and partner use cases into training — particularly around data governance, compliance frameworks, and secure data workflows.
  • Partner with internal teams (Forward Deployed Engineering, Product, Customer Success, Support, and Sales Engineering) to identify training gaps and produce content that elevates both technical skills and field readiness.
  • Support cross-functional initiatives that require training expertise, such as new feature rollouts, internal onboarding, partner certification programs, and public-sector enablement.
  • Facilitate knowledge sharing by creating internal documentation, instructor guides, and technical enablement resources.
  • Contribute to Train-the-Trainer programs to scale delivery across Virtru and partner organizations.
  • Periodically deliver live or virtual technical training sessions as needed to validate content, model delivery, or support strategic customers or partners.
  • Gather learner feedback, analyze performance metrics, and iterate content to improve clarity, accuracy, and impact.
  • Contribute to standardized outbriefs, debriefs, and continuous improvement cycles for each training session.

Requirements

  • Proven experience designing and developing technical training (curriculum, labs, documentation, instructor materials) for engineers, administrators, or highly technical audiences.
  • Ability to create hands-on labs and scenario-based exercises (command-line, configuration, troubleshooting).
  • Exceptional communication and simplification skills — the ability to break down complicated systems into approachable learning experiences for diverse personas.
  • Strong technical depth in cloud, security, data governance, or platform engineering — with the ability to translate complex concepts like policy engines, TDF, and DSP deployment into clear, digestible training content.
  • Background in software design principles and understanding of common design patterns — with the ability to conceptually reason about SDK usage, integration flows, and technical system behavior.
  • 5–7+ years in technical curriculum development, technical training delivery, or deeply technical enablement roles.
  • Familiarity with data governance, access control models, policy-as-code, or DLP/classification frameworks.
  • Exposure to DevOps tooling, CI/CD, Infrastructure as Code tools (Terraform, CloudFormation, Azure ARM), containers (Docker/Kubernetes), or modern deployment workflows.
  • Familiarity with programming or experience reading code snippets (e.g., Go, Java, JavaScript, Python, PowerShell, Bash) to support SDK-related training content.
  • Experience collaborating with engineering, product, and support teams.
  • Strong writing, editing, and instructional design skills.
  • Self-starter mindset — comfortable operating in ambiguity and building structure from the ground up.
Benefits
  • A Flexible PTO policy — we strongly encourage you to take time off (in addition to 14 holidays) to ensure that you are getting the proper time needed to unplug and recharge.
  • A $1,500 annual Learning & Development Stipend focused on providing you the resources to continually learn and professionally grow.
  • Frequent company-sponsored team celebrations that provide ample opportunities to connect with teammates and be social!
  • Access to an Employee Assistance Program
  • Access to Headspace, a mental health app tailored to your specific needs.
  • A flat 3% contribution to your retirement account
  • A high degree of flexibility — Have an appointment, errand, or family emergency to take care of? Hop to it! We give you the time and space to take care of you and your own first.
  • Competitive compensation
  • Generous parental, medical, and bereavement policies
  • 401K contribution and stock options
  • Full medical, dental, and vision benefits
  • New Hire Swag and IT Welcome boxes
  • Structured semi-annual 360° performance reviews
