    • Revise materials created by Subject Matter Experts (SMEs). In this role, you will be responsible for helping SMEs in the process of course creation. While our SMEs are experts in their technical domain, many of them are not expert teachers / instructional designers so it is imperative that you be an expert curriculum designer that can take rough materials created by SMEs (slides, scripts, quizzes, code exercises), identify areas for improvement, and ultimately revise those materials to help them deliver a high-quality product.
    • Help to create and / or  provide feedback on technical content. In this role, you will be responsible for creating or revising technical course content. Although you do not have to be an expert in the subject of every course, you must be sufficiently technical to be a learner in the course and judge how other learners will perceive the material. As such, we expect you to be proficient in math (calculus, linear algebra and statistics) as well as Python programming (functions, classes, data structures, machine learning frameworks) at a level where you can rapidly learn AI topic areas that are new to you and contribute to / provide feedback on course lecture materials and code exercises. At least a basic knowledge of AI / machine learning is required.
    • Ensure consistently high content quality and good pedagogy. “High quality” content at DLAI means content that is accurate, engaging and effective at delivering the skills learners set out to acquire. You will review content and be responsible for revising, improving and / or supplementing with additional content to ensure clarity, accuracy, and interest.  This requires an expertise in instructional design and an ability to empathize with learners. You will need to have an ability to not only identify areas of the content that need improvement, but also to offer solutions and implement those improvements. Familiarity with pedagogical practices such as defining learning objectives and backward design, as well as experience applying such practices in the creation of online educational content is a significant plus.
    • Knowledge of instructional design best practices as well as experience designing and teaching technical courses.
    • Technical background in math and programming at a level sufficient to follow an online course in machine learning.
    • Bachelors in STEM / AI / CS or equivalent industry experience in areas like software development, machine learning or data science.
    • Excellent communicator and team player with an ability to author and edit high-quality written content in English.
    • Previous experience developing online asynchronous curriculum in the areas of AI, machine learning, data science, robotics or similar.
    • Industry experience as a data scientist, machine learning engineer or similar.
    • Strong work ethic: All of us believe in our work’s ability to change human lives. Consequently we work not just smart, but also hard.
    • Growth mindset: We are eager to teach you new skills and invest in your continual development. But learning is hard work, so this is something we hope you’ll want to do.
    • Team orientation: We care for and watch out for each other. We’re humble individually, and go after big goals together.
    • Flexibility: We are flexible in our tasks and do whatever is needed to get the job done, including work that may be outside our job description.
