We are hiring an instructor—of all genders and non—for the 11-week, full stack developmentbootcamp in Barcelona.
Classes are intentionally small (6 students or less) so that you can
focus on individual mentorship and support. Students meet from 9:30am to
5pm daily. Each day will consist of approximately ~2-3 hours of
instructor-led lecture or code review. You will have time between
lectures to work on curriculum, provide support for students, and
prepare for the next day. Classes are taught in English and students
come from around the world.
JOB PRIORITIES
I. Delivering a life-changing experience to students.
Your first priority will be to give your students the mindsets and
technical skills to succeed as junior engineers. To do this, you will
need to be a mentor, teacher, and a coach– responding to learning needs
and adjusting curriculum and teaching as required.
II. Taking the curriculum to the next level.
Our curriculum includes: JavaScript fundamentals, data structures,
Git, React.js, Vue, Node.js, Express, PostgreSQL, and Heroku. The
foundation (a comprehensive scope and sequence, activities, starter
repositories) already exists– but may need modifications. Lecture slides
are minimal: you are encouraged to live code examples, use whiteboard
explanations, and build more depth into these presentations.
QUALIFICATIONS
The ideal candidate will have:
- 5+ years working as a full stack software engineer
- Knowledge of modern methodologies and JavaScript frameworks
- Patience, friendliness, and the ability to make confusing things less confusing for others
- Preference given to applications with experience working as a teacher and developing curriculum
- Ability to roll with the freedom and independence often associated with start-up culture
COMPENSATION
Instructors receive a generous relocation package including airfare
as well as 24-hour access to Spaces 22, a shared co-working spaces just a
10-minute walk from the Mediterranean sea.
