• Scripting: video, audio narration, scenario-based content with visual recommendations
• SME collaboration: gather source content, validate accuracy, align with product updates and certification standards

• Data-driven iteration: analyze learner performance data to improve content effectiveness
• AI acceleration: leverage AI to speed up content creation, quality audits, and production efficiency
A day in the life
At its core, this role is about designing and developing the learning content that gets advertisers certified on Amazon Ads. You'll build eLearning courses from scratch, write certification exam items, and create storyboards that map out every interaction and visual. Most days look like collaborating with SMEs to get the technical details right, scripting video modules, or refining assessment questions so they actually measure what matters. You'll review learner data to spot what's not landing and iterate quickly. Some days you'll go beyond the usual, using AI to speed up content production or exploring motion graphics to make learning engaging.
