Learning & Development Manager

About Mytra:

We’re creating an entirely new way to solve the most ubiquitous problem in industry - moving and storing material. We’re applying robotics and distributed software to create a new class of product for this $1T market. We’re focused on the supply chain industry first. The industry is in a massive bind with the continued growth of e-commerce, sharp rise in costs, and supply chain disruptions. What has been a “sleepy” industry for decades is now at the epicenter of sustaining the global economy.

About the role

As a Learning & Development Lead at Mytra, you will join our People team during a period of rapid scaling. You will build Mytra’s first dedicated learning function: programs that grow our employees and leaders, keep Mytra safe and compliant, and give our customers the training they need to run our system. We need a hands-on, systems-minded builder to help us turn learning into a driver of capability and growth.

What you’ll do:

• Build a foundational learning function. Set structured standards for how training is designed and delivered at Mytra, create learning pathways mapped to the Mytra Level Matrix, and develop train-the-trainer programs to scale expertise across teams
• Own employee development. Partner with the People team on new hire orientation and onboarding, run feedback training, and design ongoing learning programs and stipends
• Run leadership development programs. Partner with the Head of People to curate programs for our leaders, including Enneagram sessions and people manager training. Own the operations behind them: managing external coaches and vendors, managing attendees and enrollment, and supporting facilitators with content grounded in adult learning principles
• Drive customer enablement. Work with Deployment, Sustainment, Customer Operations and Safety so customers have the right training and a clean handoff after deployment, covering on-the-job training, processes, escalations and system safety
• Build on-the-job training. Partner with Manufacturing, Safety and Customer Operations to develop critical training that ramps internal capability, including effective train-the-trainer programs for technical and frontline teams
• Own the LMS and training compliance. Manage our LMS for all Mytra training, and partner cross-functionally to deliver 100% compliance on safety, security and HR-related training

Ideal Candidates

• Have proven experience designing and scaling learning programs across employee, leadership and technical or operational training
• Have deep expertise in adult learning principles and instructional design, with a track record of turning them into practical, engaging content
• Have built learning structures from the ground up, including standards, pathways and measurement, ideally in a fast-growing company
• Have built train-the-trainer and on-the-job programs in hardware, manufacturing or field-based environments
• Have run the operations of learning programs: LMS administration, compliance tracking, and managing external coaches and vendors
• Operate with high independence: define the approach for ambiguous initiatives, make tradeoffs across operational and business needs, and build practices adopted well beyond your own team
• Demonstrate our values: build trust across functions, ask why to find the real capability gap, and build programs that last while moving quickly

Nice to have:

• Customer training or enablement experience for complex hardware or software products
• Enneagram certification

A Final Note:

If this role excites you, we encourage you to apply - even if you don’t check every box. At Mytra, we build bots, but we hire humans. We value thoughtful challengers who communicate with clarity and respect, and we’re lifelong learners committed to getting better every day. We move fast, learn faster, and show up for each other under pressure. The best outcomes come from diverse perspectives working together to build something meaningful and built to last
