Job description
You already built something from zero and took it to scale. Now you're looking for your next big bet—one that has both urgency and moral clarity. If you believe the U.S. education system is criminally under-serving gifted kids, and you’re ready to do something about it, keep reading.
gt.school is redefining what school should look like for high‑potential students. Our 2 Hour Learning model compresses the academic day into focused, mastery‑based sessions—freeing up time for students to pursue real challenges. Now, we’re ready to build out a physical model campus that adds the missing pieces: leadership experiences, peer competition, performance‑driven culture, and the kind of community these students have been missing.
What You Will Be Doing
Your mandate spans program design, campus build‑out, and market growth—designing and testing scalable programs that extend beyond academics, focusing on leadership, independence, and competition
Building and validating a physical model campus, including staffing models, space design, and operations
Developing parent‑facing messaging, market strategies, and growth playbooks to fuel expansion
Defining, documenting, and scaling quality standards and cultural rituals across all future sites
Acting as the public face of the model—driving visibility through media, events, and partnerships
What You Won’t Be Doing
Running a traditional school with classrooms, teachers, and a full‑day schedule
Catering to families who want gifted‑lite programs with AP classes and minimal challenge
Managing incremental change within existing institutions—we’re not “fixing” schools, we’re replacing them
Chasing superficial engagement metrics—we care about hard outcomes and deep learning, not just activity
Building everything remotely—you’ll have flexibility, but will spend ~1 week/month in Austin to ground your work in reality
Head Of New Business Lines Key Responsibilities
Design, validate, and scale a high‑performance gifted school model—starting with a single prototype campus and expanding to a national network.
Basic Requirements
Built and scaled a high‑impact venture from scratch (bonus if it involved physical operations or education). We are talking about at least 1M USD yearly revenue owned by you
Deep, personal understanding of gifted students—whether through family, professional experience, or lived reality
AI First mentality — Inclination to prioritize AI as the default solution for problem‑solving, decision‑making and work output generation at scale.
Proven ability to articulate a compelling vision and convert skeptics into believers
Based in the U.S., with ability to travel regularly to Austin (minimum 1 week/month)
Eligible to work in the U.S. without visa sponsorship
