Technical Mentor, AI

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in North America.

📋 Description

• As a technical mentor, your role will encompass three primary responsibilities.

• Conduct 1:1 video calls.

• Facilitate Virtual Technical Deep-Dive Sessions.

• Lead Group Q&A sessions.

• Offer personalized assistance by responding to learner inquiries regarding course material and projects.

• Before each call, mentors are expected to review the students' past project submissions—provided by the Mentor Success Team when available—and/or specific areas of the Nanodegree content or project that the student has indicated confusion or difficulty with.

• For concept deep-dives, mentors should prepare a slide presentation that elaborates on a Nanodegree concept, sharing various use-cases to enhance students' perspectives and understanding, followed by a Q&A session with the learners.

• During project walkthroughs, mentors will come equipped with a slide presentation detailing each component of the rubric to assist learners in grasping expectations and typical challenges they may face. This may include a mentor “grading” a sample submission to illustrate what to look for when reviewing projects.

• Organize regular sessions (via Slack or video) to address learner inquiries related to projects and coursework, with no prior preparation required.
