Khan Academy is a nonprofit founded by Sal Khan ππ½ββοΈ, with the mission to provide a free πΈ, world-class education for anyone, anywhere. π
What started as one man tutoring his cousin has grown into a 300 people organization. Weβre a diverse team that has come together to work on an audacious mission: to provide a free world-class education for anyone, anywhere. We are developers π, teachers π©πΌβπ«, designers π¨, strategists π€, scientists π¬, and content specialists who passionately believe in inspiring the world to learn. A few great people can make a big difference π£.
As the 1st and only Sr. Design Program Manager for the Design Team, I Established & iterated on team processes, tools, onboarding experience, and documentation for Product Design, UX Research, and Design Systems as the team scaled 2.5x (8 members to 24 members, including 5 Contractors) over 1 year period.
I examined π§, experimented π§ͺ, and measured improvements π to our operational model and processes (e.g. automating tasks, improving workflows πͺ·, developing repeatable methodologies). I played a leading role in project planning and design resourcing horizontally across Design team π.
