Job description

Front-End Development Instructor (Part-Time)

DESIGNATION is a full-time, full-immersion, full-stack design bootcamp. Over 12 weeks, students learn digital design, front-end development and user experience (UX), and build their portfolios by working with live clients on real world projects.

You love front-end development, HTML/CSS/JS, and have a lot of experience in it. You are a design-driven front-end developer by day, but you would love to teach aspiring front-end development students the power of good design and how to interact with developers as a designer. The Front-End Development Instructor role is an evening part-time position, with 6pm - 9pm lectures three times per month, as well as a Saturday workshop and office hours.

Responsibilities

• Teach front-end development to students (8 classes/month) using DESIGNATION's proprietary design curriculum and add your own flavors to the content.
• Mentor students and provide feedback in person and via email.
• Connect job-ready students with any potential opportunities and interface with the student job placement program.
• Contribute to improving the front-end development curriculum.
• Contribute front-end development thought leadership articles to the DESIGNATION blog, and speak or host workshops/events throughout the year.

Qualifications

• 4+ years of industry experience in front-end development.
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills.
• Educational background is a plus, but not a requirement.
• Working professional with a passion for front-end development and user-centered design, and a wealth of experiences and insights to share with aspiring students.
• Commitment to helping people understand the principles of front-end development as it pertains to web and mobile design.
