Instructional Designer P3Zuora University | Location: Chennai, IndiaTeam & RoleThe Training team is a nimble and highly efficient group within Zuora responsible for delivering product training to our customers, partners and employees. We're collaborative (but still expect each other to own our respective projects); passionate about learning (but realize we must balance time-to-market with perfection); open to giving and receiving honest feedback (but are always kind) so that, in the end, we deliver the highest quality product.OUR VISION: THE WORLD. SUBSCRIBED.Customers have changed. They're looking for new ways to engage with businesses. Consumers today have a new set of expectations. They want outcomes, not ownership. Customization, not generalization. Constant improvement, not planned obsolescence.In the old world (let's call it the Product Economy) it was all about things. Acquiring new customers, shipping commodities, billing for one-time transactions. But in today's new era, it's all about relationships. More and more customers are becoming subscribers because subscription experiences built around services meet consumers' needs better than the static offerings or a single product.Our vision is “The World Subscribed” where one day every company will be a part of the Subscription Economy® (a phrase coined by our CEO, Tien Tzuo and author of the best selling book ).In late 2016, we launched paid subscription access to Zuora University and now we're looking for an Instructional Designer with a programming/coding background (who ideally has experience with software applications and SaaS business models) to be based in the Chennai office and join our growing team in India.What you'll do & achieveThe Instructional Designer for Zuora University develops digital training content for customers, partners, and employees, partnering with subject matter experts and visual designers to create courses “from the ground up”.
