Senior Instructional Designer, AI & Simulation Enablement

<div class="content-intro"><p><strong>Company Overview:<br><br></strong><a href="https://www.blinkhealth.com/">Blink Health </a>is the fastest growing healthcare technology company that builds products to make prescriptions accessible and affordable to everybody. Our two primary products – BlinkRx and Quick Save – remove traditional roadblocks within the current prescription supply chain, resulting in better access to critical medications and improved health outcomes for patients. <br><br><a href="https://www.blinkhealth.com/blinkrx">BlinkRx </a>is the world’s first pharma-to-patient cloud that offers a digital concierge service for patients who are prescribed branded medications. Patients benefit from transparent low prices, free home delivery, and world-class support on this first-of-its-kind centralized platform. With BlinkRx, never again will a patient show up at the pharmacy only to discover that they can’t afford their medication, their doctor needs to fill out a form for them, or the pharmacy doesn’t have the medication in stock. <br><br>We are a highly collaborative team of builders and operators who invent new ways of working in an industry that historically has resisted innovation.

You won't just write training content — you'll design, build, and continuously improve realistic practice environments, from conversational role-play scenarios to procedural and technical simulations, that let employees rehearse high-stakes skills safely, repeatedly, and at scale. This role sits deliberately at the intersection of three disciplines: instructional design, live facilitation, and Product/Engineering. You'll translate learning needs into technical requirements that designers or Product and Engineering can build against, and translate those outputs back into the classroom experience for our learners. Success means simulation-based training that is both instructionally sound and technically scalable — and that demonstrably improves performance.</p> <p><strong><em>This is a hybrid role based in either New York or Seattle location</em></strong></p> <p><strong>What you’ll do:</strong></p> <p><strong>Simulation Design & Strategy</strong></p> <ul> <li>Design branching scenarios, role-play conversations, and procedural/technical simulations grounded in adult learning principles and real on-the-job situations.</li> <li>Define what “realistic” and “effective” mean for each simulation — personas, difficulty curves, failure states, and feedback loops — in partnership with SMEs and facilitators.</li> <li>Build and maintain a simulation roadmap aligned to the organization’s highest-priority skill gaps, rather than defaulting to whichever tool is easiest to deploy.</li> </ul> <p><strong>AI Tooling, Prompt Engineering & Build</strong></p> <ul> <li>Own the prompt engineering and configuration behind AI-driven simulations (conversational AI role-play, AI-generated scenario content, adaptive difficulty), working within licensed platforms and/or custom-built tools.</li> <li>Evaluate and pilot AI simulation vendors and in-house technologies (e.g., conversational role-play platforms, authoring tools with AI generation, avatar/voice tools) against defined learning outcomes and total cost of ownership.</li> <li>Maintain a working knowledge of the AI/LLM capabilities and constraints relevant to training use cases, translating this into realistic scope and timelines.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Bridging Ins
