Analog is a new AI company focused on edge computing solutions that seamlessly connect people, places and things through the use of smart sensors and mixed reality devices. Analog is born out of the ambition to mix human needs with the sophisticated potential of AI. Our mission is to craft technology that amplifies rather than replaces human skills, bridging the gap between possibility and reality.

This role is central to Analog’s mission of redefining the future of education through responsible, engaging, and curriculum-aligned applications of AI.

This is a hands-on leadership role combining strategic planning, product innovation, and execution excellence. The ideal candidate will possess a deep understanding of international education systems, AI and edtech trends, curriculum design, and stakeholder alignment—from ministries and regulators to school leaders and teachers. The Director will also serve as a public-facing thought leader for Analog in the education domain.

• Team Building & Leadership: Lead and grow cross-functional teams of learning engineers, instructional designers, and content developers; recruit, mentor, and retain top-tier talent.
• AI Innovation: Identify high-impact AI applications in K–12 education; lead prototyping and MVP development of learning tools and platforms powered by Ana (Analog Neural Agent).
• Pilot Design & Testing: Oversee classroom pilots and A/B testing of new features and models; use data-driven insights to inform iteration and scale.
• Curriculum & Compliance: Align all offerings with UAE and international curricula; ensure compliance with ADEC and MOE regulatory frameworks.
• Scalable Program Development: Design modular, age-appropriate educational content—lesson plans, project briefs, and AI-integrated activities—that support core subject pathways.
• Educator Enablement: Develop and deliver professional development for teachers and school leaders of all technical proficiencies; integrate AI into classroom practices.
• Stakeholder Engagement: Build strong relationships with curriculum leads, school heads, government partners, and industry players to drive program adoption and sustainability.
• Impact Measurement: Define and track learning outcomes (e.g., engagement, achievement gains); develop case studies and reports to demonstrate educational and commercial ROI.
• Technology Adoption: Evaluate and implement new edtech and AI platforms; ensure tools are intuitive, effective, and integrated into school operations.
• Delivery Standardization: Build frameworks, documentation, and toolkits for repeatable deployment across multiple partner schools and regions.
• Thought Leadership: Represent Analog at conferences, author whitepapers, and advise education stakeholders on ethical, effective AI integration in learning.
