Content Strategy Manager

Remote (United States)

We are seeking a strategic, data-driven, and entrepreneurial content strategist to ensure that Coursera’s Computer Science & Technology content catalog of Certificates, Degrees, and Courses meets the needs of our learners -- building skills to help them get top jobs and professional outcomes. This person should have extensive knowledge of the ecosystem of skills and technologies around technology. Broadly, this is defined as Computer Science, Software Engineering (including mobile and web dev), Cloud, IT and Security. In particular the ideal candidate will have extensive research and analysis skills, and will create a cohesive and data-driven content strategy with a bird’s eye view of on-platform demand, total addressable market, and Coursera’s differentiating characteristics. In addition to identifying the content that is needed to help build learners’ skills, this candidate will need to identify companies and universities to pursue to source this content.


While part of the role involves identifying these key areas of strategic investment, another meaty part of the job will involve consultation to our Partnerships teams as well as the companies and universities with which they partner. This consultation will be done in coordination with our Partnerships Managers, and will range in scope from helping to identify specific topics in Computer Science & Tech, to reviewing proposed curricula, to creating multi-year content plans that cut across departments and content formats (e.g., Courses, Degrees). 


This person will also work cross-functionally with other teams that are helping to create and position content on the platform, such as our Services, Marketing, and Product teams. In short, you should have a deep knowledge of Computer Science & Tech, must be very comfortable using data to make strategic recommendations, be a real team player, and also be passionate about education in technical fields.

  • Curate and analyze Tech catalogs
  • Use data and domain knowledge to ensure the overall health of Computer Science & Tech at Coursera
