About the Team</b></p></div><div><p>
The User Centered Platforms and Practices team is where product, content, design, and engineering come together to reimagine how work happens at College Board. We are systems thinkers, facilitators, and builders focused on creating the connective tissue&mdash;tools, platforms, and practices&mdash;that enable teams to deliver high-quality, user-centered products at scale.</p></div><div><p>
You&rsquo;ll partner closely with product, engineering, research, and program teams working on the <b>Authentic Work Platform (AWP)</b>&mdash;College Board&rsquo;s next-generation, software-as-a-service platform for creating, delivering, scoring, and reporting authentic student work across K&ndash;12, higher education, and professional contexts.</p></div><p></p><div><p><b>
About</b><b> </b><b>the Opportunity</b></p></div><div><p>
College Board is a mission-driven, not-for-profit organization committed to clearing a path for all students to own their future. As generative AI reshapes education, College Board is leading the Future of Assessment&mdash;ensuring that student work remains authentic, meaningful, secure, and reflective of the skills needed to thrive in an AI-enabled world.</p></div><div><p>
The <b>Authentic Work Platform (AWP)</b> builds on the trusted Bluebook digital assessment system to support the full lifecycle of authentic work: onboarding institutions, creating tasks and content, delivering secure experiences, scoring and evaluating work (with and without AI), and reporting outcomes back to students, educators, institutions, and providers. The platform supports daily classroom assignments, district and state assessments, and high-stakes exams&mdash;at massive scale and with uncompromising standards for trust, reliability, and equity.</p></div><div><p>
As a <b>Senior Service Designer</b>, you will play a critical role in shaping the <b>end-to-end, platform-wide service experience</b> of AWP. This role operates in an active platform transformation, where foundational service decisions made now will shape how millions of users experience assessment over the next decade. This is not a single-product or single-surface role. You will design across domains, programs, and user types&mdash;ensuring that AWP feels like one coherent, intuitive platform rather than a collection of disconnected tools.</p></div><div><p>
You will bring deep service design expertise, systems thinking, and strong facilitation skills to complex, ambiguous problem spaces. You will influence without formal authority, helping align designers and teams through shared journeys, principles, and standards, while grounding decisions in user research and operational realities</p></div><p></p><div><p><i>
In this role, you will:</i></p></div><div><p><b>
Platform-Level Service Design &amp; Strategy (40%)</b></p></div><div><ul><li><p>
Design and steward end-to-end service journeys across the full Authentic Work Platform lifecycle: onboard, create, get ready, deliver, score, report, and support.</p></li></ul></div><div><ul><li><p>
Apply systems thinking to map and improve complex relationships across users, programs, policies, processes, and technical platforms.</p></li></ul></div><div><ul><li><p>

Partner with product and technology leadership to shape platform strategy, major service investments, and cross-program design decisions.</p></li></ul></div><div><ul><li><p>
Ensure key capabilities and components (e.g., onboarding, help, scoring workflows, reporting patterns) are designed once and reused effectively across domains.</p></li></ul></div></div><div><div><p><b>

Design service experiences that responsibly enable, constrain, or integrate AI&mdash;balancing authenticity, transparency, user control, and policy requirements.</p></li></ul></div><div><ul><li><p>
Consider equity, accessibility, security, privacy, and accommodations as first-class design inputs, especially in high-stakes contexts.</p></li></ul></div><div><ul><li><p>
Account for operational realities such as reliability, fault tolerance, and scalability when shaping service concepts and recommendations.</p></li></ul></div><div><p><b>
Practice Growth &amp; Contribution (5%)</b></p></div><div><ul><li><p>
Contribute to the growth of service design practice at College Board through mentorship, shared tools, templates, and evolving methods.</p></li></ul></div><div><ul><li><p>
Stay current on emerging trends in service design, systems thinking, and platform design, bringing fresh perspectives to the team.</p></li></ul></div><p></p><div><p><b>
What Success Looks Like</b></p></div><div><ul><li><p>
Educators, students, and administrators experience AWP as one coherent, intuitive platform across classroom and high-stakes use cases.</p></li></ul></div><div><ul><li><p>
Teams reuse shared journeys, patterns, and components rather than reinventing core services.</p></li></ul></div></div><div><div><ul><li><p>
Platform decisions are visibly grounded in user research and service insights.</p></li></ul></div><div><ul><li><p>
Service design recommendations are translated into shipped capabilities and measurable improvements in user experience across multiple programs.</p></li></ul></div><div><ul><li><p>
