You'll define what \"great\" looks like at each touchpoint, write the specs that the platform builds against, set the success criteria, validate outcomes, and iterate until the experience is demonstrably better than what a student gets at a local coaching centre.\n\nThe candidate will have responsibilities across the following functions: \n\nDefine Best-in-Class Online Pedagogy: \nMap the complete student learning journey from pre-class prep through live class, post-class revision, homework, practice, tests, doubt resolution and define the ideal experience at each stage.\nTranslate pedagogical intent into product specs: what should the practice room experience feel like? How should test analytics be surfaced to drive behaviour change? What's the right engagement loop between live class and self-study? What nudges drive accountability?\nBenchmark against what top local coaching delivers in-person.\nIdentify where online falls short and where it can leapfrog through personalisation, data, and feedback loops.\nDesign for different student segments- first-timers, repeaters/droppers, different score bands- not one-size-fits-all.\n\nWork with Platforms to Ship the Experience: \nWrite clear experience requirements and acceptance criteria for platforms.\nMaintain a prioritised experience roadmap of what needs to be built, fixed, or redesigned across the student journey and align with platform teams on sequencing and trade-offs.\nReview shipped features against your specs. Hold the quality bar.\nFlag gaps between what was defined and what got built.\nYou see the full student journey horizontally; the platform sees individual feature verticals.\nYour job is to make sure the pieces add up to a coherent experience.\n\nWork with Academics to Define the Right Pedagogy: \nPartner with the Academic team as your domain input layer on what to teach, in what sequence, at what depth, with what reinforcement cadence.\nChallenge and push academic thinking with product and data perspectives. \"This is how we've always taught\" is not a spec.\nTranslate academic best practices into measurable, instrumentable product experiences.\nCo-design new pedagogical formats (e. g., score-band-based learning paths, practice-room models, adaptive homework) that are native to online, not offline formats, copied and pasted onto a screen.\n\nOwn Outcome and Adoption Metrics: \nDirectly accountable for NPS and renewal rates across NEET cohorts, these are the ultimate scorecards of whether your experience design is working.\nOwn leading indicators: live class attendance, test completion, question practice volume, content consumption depth, and academic feature utilisation.\nBuild a tight loop: instrument the experience, read the data weekly, identify what's broken, define the fix as a product spec, get it built, measure again.\n\nRun Rapid Experiments: \nDefault mindset: online pedagogy shouldn't be a lesser version of offline. It's a different medium.\nFind and exploit the advantages.\nDesign and run experiments on new class formats, engagement mechanics, practice models, and accountability systems.\nEvery experiment has a hypothesis, a metric, and a kill criteria.\nFail fast. Learn. Double down on what moves the metric.\nBuild a culture of pedagogical innovation with product rigour.\n\nRequirements: \n5-9 years in ed-tech product management, with at least 2-3 years owning a learning experience or category experience for a competitive exam segment (NEET/JEE/equivalent).\nYou've operated as the person who defines the end-to-end experience and works through other platform teams to get it built.\nData-fluent. You think in funnels, cohort analyses, and leading vs. lagging indicators.\nHigh experimentation clock speed.\nYou ship experiments weekly, not quarterly.\nYou're comfortable with imperfect data and fast decisions.\nBusiness instinct. You connect product work to business outcomes naturally.\nYou don't just ship features; you think about whether those features drive retention, NPS, and revenue.\nSkills\nJEE, NEET, ed-tech, edtech, product","description_format":"text","description_chars":4248,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["EdTech Platforms","E-learning"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-23T20:36:00Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.897,"p_room":1,"age_days":7,"expected_fill_days":28,"reasons":["seen:7","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-31T05:58:55Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/allen-digital-product-lead","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/allen-digital-product-lead.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-31T18:55:50Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":29664,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-01T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":4068},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=4068"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fallen-digital-product-lead"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fallen-digital-product-lead"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fallen-digital-product-lead"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/allen-digital-product-lead\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fallen-digital-product-lead"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3179079}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"allen.in","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3179079},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
