SFDC + Oracle CPQ Instructional Designer - Temporary

In a typical day, the temporary SFDC/CPQ Instructional Designer partners closely with product owners, SMEs, and enablement stakeholders to understand upcoming system enhancements and their impact on end users. They translate functional changes into clear training requirements, own the end-to-end enablement workstream for assigned initiatives, design and develop targeted learning assets such as simulations, quick reference guides, and short eLearning modules, and prepare materials for timely launch aligned to release schedules.
