About Noon
We're on a mission to radically change the way students learn. We started with a simple ideaaccess to the best teachers shouldn't be a luxury, and learning should energize, not drain you. We believe in solving hard problems, and we play to winwe measure progress by revenues, students, and learning gains. Our approach Build high-performing teams, giving them the freedom to dream big and execute boldly.
Today, we're building the next generation of schools in Saudi Arabia. We believe every student deserves world-class teachers. And to make it happen, we're reimagining everything about education: from cutting-edge tech to peer learning and physical spaces that spark curiosity.
We're aiming for an IPO, and the product you'll build is core to getting us there. The scale is real. We expanded to 28 schools in our second year of operations, and we're expanding to 100+ schools around the Kingdom in the near future.

Why This Role Matters
We're building and scaling an international-curriculum school offering. The work is real-world and high-accountability: pilots inside schools, hard constraints, and commercial ownership. This role turns ambiguity into a repeatable expansion playbook and scales what works.
Role Summary
You'll join the International Expansion team to design, validate, and scale our international-curriculum schools.
This is an operator role spanning discovery, strategy, execution, and commercial ownership. As you deliver results, your scope expands to owning an entire market or major initiative.
What You'll Own
- PMF + pilots: define the segment, sharpen the offering, and validate through pilots and data
- Cross-functional execution: drive plans and accountability across Growth, Learning, Ops, and Product
- Commercial outcomes: pricing, unit economics, margins, revenue targets, and rollout trade-offs
What Success Looks Like
First 90 Days
- A clear segment hypothesis and offering narrative backed by real parent and student insight
- 12 pilots launched with measurement in place (activation, retention, learning outcomes, unit economics)
- A written scale decision memo: what to double down on, what to stop, resourcing requirements, and pricing/unit economics recommendation
36 Months
- A repeatable pilot-to-scale playbook (operating model + GTM + measurement + pricing/unit economics)
- Partner and channel pipeline with progress against agreed commercial targets
- A working weekly cadence across functions (milestones, owners, accountability)
612 Months
- Ownership of a market or major initiative end-to-end (strategy + execution + commercial performance)
- Clear improvements in outcomes that matter: adoption, learning, unit economics, and growth
Responsibilities
- Research markets, users, and competitors to surface the highest-potential opportunities
- Design and refine our core offering across geographies (program + experience + operating model)
- Own PMF validation through pilots, instrumentation, and real-world feedback loops
- Drive cross-functional execution with clear plans, milestones, owners, and follow-through
- Build and execute GTM strategies across acquisition channels and partnerships
- Own commercial performance: pricing, margins, revenue targets, and trade-offs

Noon Academy is the leading edtech platform in the Middle East, with over 14 million students and teachers using our app to learn, teach, and collaborate. We have recently raised $41 million in Series B funding to expand our reach and impact in the region and beyond. We are on a mission to transform the physical classroom experience by introducing our highly engaging social, group-based learning and AI to make learning fun and improve learning efficacy. Our ultimate goal is to provide access to the best teachers to every student even if that teacher is only available virtually. We believe we can do this if we blend AI, peer-to-peer learning, and a carefully designed physical space.
