Your Role:
The Creative eLearning Developer designs and builds interactive training services, offering collateral and enablement content for the Services Portfolio by combining three capabilities in one role: multimedia/video design, graphic design, and technical writing. This role turns technical subject matter into polished, field-ready courses, videos, and collateral for websites, presentations, classrooms, and e-learning platforms - owning a deliverable from storyboard through final published, LMS-ready package.
This is a “creative” eLearning Developer specifically: unlike a standard eLearning Developer who authors courses from assets supplied by others, this role also creates the graphic and multimedia assets themselves - 2-D/3-D graphics, video animation, and course visuals, in addition to authoring interactive modules in tools like Articulate Storyline or Rise 360 and writing the scripts, captions, and course copy that tie a deliverable together. The role also manages one or more supporting processes for the team (e.g., video mastering, templates, or SCORM packaging standards), working largely self-directed with minimal supervision and reporting status to leadership at regular intervals.
Your Opportunity:
Multimedia & Video Design:
- Video & Audio Editing: Edit video and audio into the final training, services and marketing deliverables.
- Storyboard Translation: Translate storyboards into technical infographics and animated sequences.
- 3-D & Motion Assets: Create line art, 2-D graphics, 3-D imaging, and video animation for course and presentation content.
Graphic Design & Brand Hub:
- Template & Style Systems: Create, maintain, and utilize templates for presentations, documents, and animations using a variety of development tools.
- Brand & Style Guides: Contribute to creating style guides for deliverables, ensuring visual and written consistency across the portfolio.
- Visual Layout: Design presentation layouts and visual assets that translate technical information into a clear visual story.
- Brand Evolution Support: Support the Senior Manager, Services Portfolio Production, in executing the corporate “house style” overhaul across all One Tenable, Prime assets, including the Tier 1/2 rebrand timeline.
- Creative Request Hub: Act as a direct creative design point of contact for the Senior Director and leadership — turning around presentations, graphics, and one-off collateral on request — with strict adherence to brand guidelines.
- Brand Guideline Stewardship: Maintain and enforce brand standards (logo usage, typography, color, iconography) across all portfolio deliverables, and flag or correct off-brand assets in circulation.
Technical Writing & Content Development:
- Script & Course Copy: Write and edit scripts, voiceover text, captions, and on-screen callouts, maintaining a consistent voice across written and visual content.
- Documentation: Maintain technical and course documentation to support the assets you build.
- Content Evaluation: Evaluate existing visual and written content and recommend improvements for clarity and engagement.
eLearning Authoring & Publishing:
- Course Authoring: Build interactive learning modules — branching scenarios, quizzes, and simulations — using tools such as Articulate Storyline, Rise 360, or Adobe Captivate.
- Packaging & LMS Publishing: Package courses to SCORM/xAPI standards, publish to the LMS, and test for compatibility and learner tracking.
- Accessibility: Apply accessibility standards (e.g., Section 508) to eLearning content.
Stakeholder Collaboration & Delivery:
- Requirements Gathering: Meet with stakeholders to gather requirements and develop design plans.
- Iterative Feedback: Perform edits based on feedback from Solution Architects, peers, and leadership.
- Deadline Management: Create deliverables within time constraints to meet project deadlines.
- Independent Execution: Perform tasks with minimal supervision, managing one or more supporting processes (e.g., video mastering, templates, SCORM packaging standards) end-to-end.
Team Leadership & Mentorship:
- Mentorship: Mentor and develop less experienced designers, sharing craft and process knowledge across the production team.
What You'll Need:
- Minimum 5 years of eLearning development, multimedia, or graphic/video design experience in a professional setting.
- Comfortable writing and maintaining technical/course documentation, scripts, and captions for course and video deliverables.
- Familiarity with the full product delivery life cycle: requirements analysis, design, testing, implementation.
- B.A./B.S. in graphic design, instructional design, educational technology, or a related field, or comparable experience.
- Proficiency with Articulate Storyline and/or Rise 360 (or Adobe Captivate), plus Adobe Creative Cloud and Camtasia.
- Strong presentation design skills (PowerPoint, Google Slides, or Keynote) for fast-turnaround, executive-ready decks in addition to core Adobe Creative Cloud work.
- Experience building or maintaining a brand guideline system (logo, typography, color, iconography) at an organizational level.
- Working knowledge of SCORM/xAPI packaging and LMS publishing; awareness of accessibility standards such as Section 508.
- Working knowledge of Instructional Design frameworks (e.g., ADDIE).
- Experience or knowledge of Tenable products; familiarity with network architecture and Tenable cybersecurity practices for enterprise environments.
- Proficiency with Jira and Confluence.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills.
- Strong initiative and the ability to work remotely, both self-directed and as part of a geographically distributed team.
