Hearing is key to our health and happiness. Starkey is much more than the hearing aids we produce. We are in the business of connecting people and changing lives. We believe being able to hear the world and the people around us is as essential to the human experience as breathing. Many recent advances are already being recognized as disruptive technologies that have positioned Starkey hearing aids as the industry’s first devices that go beyond providing just audiological amplification. Our hearing aids now incorporate Artificial Intelligence, embedded activity sensors, language translation and transcription services, as well as an always-on personal voice assistant.

Starkey is hiring for an Instructional Designer to join our Education and Audiology Team. The Starkey Education and Audiology Department is the largest provider of on-line continuing education to hearing care providers in the U.S. In addition, our internal training demands are requiring a shift from live classes to more on-line class delivery. This position assists the content developers with the design, development, management, and delivery of the on-line programs.
