About the team + role We are building an elite team, applying frontier technologies to the world’s biggest financial problems. We’re looking for bold thinkers. Sharp problem-solvers. Builders who are wired to make an impact. Robinhood isn’t a place for complacency, it’s where ambitious people do the best work of their careers. We’re a high-performing, fast-moving team with ethics at the center of everything we do. Expectations are high, and so are the rewards. Robinhood’s Learning & Development team drives performance at scale by delivering high-quality, high-impact learning experiences. We believe that the best development happens on the job. Our programs are designed to enable employees to perform at their best in the flow of work—building skills that drive measurable business impact rather than learning for its own sake. In this role, you’ll manage and scale learning programs that enable Hoodies to operate safely, deliver impact, and grow. You’ll design and implement initiatives that are global, practical, and embedded in the flow of work—creating experiences that fuel Robinhood’s “safety always” and “high-performance culture.” You’ll work across a wide range of initiatives—from Merger & Acquisition (M&A) learning integrations to compliance, people development initiatives, and business acumen programs—partnering cross-functionally to bring learning to life in ways that are scalable, relevant, and outcome-driven. You’ll prioritize on-the-job learning that drives measurable outcomes, ensuring training and development is always tied to performance and impact! This role is based in our Menlo Park, CA, New York, NY, or Chicago, IL office, with in-person attendance expected at least 3 days per week. At Robinhood, we believe in the power of in-person work to accelerate progress, spark innovation, and strengthen community. Our office experience is intentional, energizing, and designed to fully support high-performing teams.
