Cape Town, South Africa HyperionDev Full time

ABOUT US

HyperionDev is one of the largest providers of accelerated tech education in EMEA and one of the oldest providers of 'coding bootcamps' in the world. We work with top universities such as Imperial College London, The London School of Economics, The University of Edinburgh, and Stellenbosch University to deliver structured technical courses and bootcamps that accelerate people into fulfilling tech careers. We have been recognised as one of the top education technology scaleups in the world and gained the financial backing of Meta (previously Facebook) which recognised us as the most socially impactful startup operating in Africa, where we initially started our work.

We are dedicated to closing the global tech skills gap and we achieve this by integrating tech education with human mentorship and expert code review powered by a workforce in Southern Africa, which lowers the cost of an accessible education in technology. This model has been succesful, allowing us to reach millions of learners a year from over 60 countries. We have also partnered with government bodies such as the UK's Department for Education who provide scholarships for students to study on our bootcamps and gain employment at companies such as AstraZeneca and the United Kingdom's National Health Service (NHS).

We're backed by nearly 2000 investors, having raised the largest crowdfunding round of funding for an edtech company in history. As a primarily bootstrapped, profitable, and scale up tech business join us as we play our part in making the world a more stable, safer, and fair place.

**ABOUT THE ROLE**:
As a HyperionDev Mentor, you must be passionate not just about coding or technology, but also about education and introducing new learners to the power (and potential) of programming. You must feel strongly about improving the quality of coding education, and be highly motivated to see your students succeed. You must have a proven track record in helping students learn how to code, be it as a peer mentor, school teacher, university lecturer, or online tutor.

Coding is one of the hardest skills to master and you will be building the first affordable online coding bootcamp experience to equalise the tech skills gap in both the developed and the developing world.

For this role, you need to have strong technical knowledge of **Data Science** (Python, Machine Learning). Apart from technical skills, you need to have patience, empathy, commitment to your learners' progress, a positive attitude, and excellent verbal and written communication skills.

You will fill out one of the key roles in our organisation, leading the delivery of online coding education as part of HyperionDev's online coding bootcamps delivered to thousands of students from around the world each year. You will be unlocking tremendous opportunities for your learners and creating a transformative impact in their lives.

You will further progress along a well-defined career path as a coding educator, upskilling your technical and educational skills through our internal training opportunities.

Our team consists of former Google and Amazon employees, former executive team members of some of South Africa's top startups, and those who have previously built and gone on to sell large businesses. We are looking for team members who are competitive, ambitious and have a track record of over-achieving and exceeding targets.

Join us at a time when we are reinventing online education.
