Learning Experience Specialist

About Our Client

While the rest of the security industry obsesses over locking data down to prevent it from being lost or stolen, Swooped is doing something fundamentally different. The organization is setting data free so that it can be intentionally shared with others, but without sacrificing security, privacy, or control.

Our client has created both a suite of powerful data protection applications and an open platform that is sparking an ecosystem of innovation. Through the Trusted Data Format (TDF) open standard, the organization is not just protecting data; it is creating a new paradigm where security enables sharing rather than preventing it.

Think of this as the Android of data protection: a robust platform with an open core that developers and partners can build upon, coupled with best-in-class applications that showcase what is possible when security is reimagined from the ground up.

Backed by leading investment firms, the company is helping Fortune 500 companies and government agencies discover that true data security means having the freedom to share, collaborate, and innovate — without compromise.

About The Learning Experience Specialist Role

The Technical Training team is scaling to meet the demands of a growing Data Security Platform (DSP) ecosystem — spanning customers, partners, and internal team members. The team operates on a T-shaped competency model where everyone maintains a strong generalist foundation (50-70%) while developing deep specialized excellence (30-50%) in a specific domain. This ensures resilience, velocity, and quality without creating silos.

As the Learning Experience Specialist, this role will join as the content production engine of the team — focusing 60% on on-demand content creation and multimedia learning (video production, self-paced modules, content repurposing) and 40% on LMS operations and program coordination (administration, logistics, learner support).

Working closely with the Director of Training and the Technical Curriculum Developer, this position will transform complex technical concepts into engaging, scalable video-based learning experiences that accelerate customer and partner enablement as well as global reach. Multimedia production expertise, operational execution (LMS administration, logistics coordination, learner support), curriculum development, and facilitation of training sessions will ensure production velocity never compromises learner quality or technical accuracy.
