Software engineer instructor - pt

We are looking for instructors: Our Software Engineering Bootcamp is a life‑changing educational experience where our students learn the skills and mindsets to take on new careers as web developers. We are looking for a lead instructor with strong Java Script experience to play a key role on our growing instructional team. What do we teach? We begin by teaching the fundamentals of programming and web design using HTML, CSS, and Java Script. Approximately 50% of the course, typically covered in Units 2 and 4, focuses on back‑end languages and their respective frameworks. We cover Node.js with the Express framework (MVC design pattern) alongside Mongo DB (No SQL) and Python with the Django framework (MVT design pattern) paired with Postgre SQL (SQL), using these technologies to introduce key concepts such as API development, databases, security, and other essential topics. Unit 3 shifts the focus back to Java Script, where we explore consuming APIs through one or more front‑end MV* frameworks such as Angular, Ember, or React. Additionally, we emphasize crucial skills for junior web developers, including source control, team collaboration, and efficient developer workflows. We give students the chance to spend focused time building at least 4 major projects, in addition to other smaller projects and labs.
