Instructor for AI-Assisted Programming Workshops (part-time, Golang or Android or iOS)

Description

At Nebius Academy we're building a hands-on online course for experienced mobile developers on the practical use of Cursor and other AI coding tools in professional mobile development workflows.

As the Instructor, you will lead interactive live sessions that go beyond passive learning — empowering engineers to apply AI tools critically and effectively in real-world mobile development contexts.

Your audience will be B2B clients: skilled Android or iOS developers working in fast-paced engineering environments and looking to improve productivity, code quality, and development speed through AI-assisted workflows.

We are looking for instructors with strong hands-on expertise in Golang or Android, or iOS development. Experience across more than one of these areas is a plus, but not required.

You’ll collaborate with the course team to design, facilitate, and iterate on expert-led live sessions delivered over several weeks.

What you will do

• Prepare practical workshop scenarios and training materials for materials for Golang or Android or iOS developers using Cursor and other AI coding tools, in collaboration with our Instructional Designer.
• Conduct interactive live training sessions on AI-assisted mobile development.
• Demonstrate AI-assisted workflows: prompting, code generation, refactoring, testing, debugging, code review, documentation, and productivity practices.
• Adapt examples to real mobile engineering contexts: app architecture, UI implementation, API integration, state management, testing, performance, and maintainability.
• Contribute reusable materials, such as code snippets, prompt libraries, challenge tasks, live coding examples, and best practice guides.
• Communicate with students during Q&A sessions and provide practical guidance.
• Review and incorporate learner feedback to continuously improve session design.
• Work with the curriculum team to ensure strong alignment between asynchronous and live content.

Requirements

Technical Expertise

• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, with strong hands-on expertise in Golang or Android or iOS development.
• Practical experience with AI-assisted development tools such as Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, or similar platforms in real development workflows.
• Strong understanding of mobile development workflows, app architecture, testing strategies, debugging, performance, and developer tooling.
• Ability to explain how AI coding tools work, including their strengths, limitations, and AI-related risks.
• Understanding of secure coding practices, code quality, maintainability, and modern development workflows.

Teaching and Communication Skills

• Ability to explain complex technical concepts clearly and turn them into practical, engaging learning experiences.
• Excellent spoken English and clear technical communication.
• Russian language skills, as some of our students speak Russian.
• Confidence in leading interactive workshops, handling Q&A, and adapting in real time.
• Collaborative, audience-oriented mindset with strong preparation habits and time management.

Nice to have

• Background in developer advocacy, tech leadership, conference speaking, or technical mentoring.
• Experience teaching, coaching, or training senior developers or engineering teams.
• Knowledge of emerging AI development practices, such as MCP / Model Context Protocol or agentic coding workflows.
• Familiarity with remote collaboration tools such as Zoom, Miro, Slack, VSCode Live Share, or similar.
• Active participation in developer communities or open-source projects.

What we can offer you

• Pay Rate: $40/hr. - $85/hr. (Gross Pay).
• Remote, hourly collaboration.
• Free in-house training on how to be a great tutor and role model for students, choose the appropriate tone of voice when communicating with students, improve soft skills.
• Opportunities to develop as a public expert.
• Cross-cultural work experience and lots of opportunities for networking with teammates who love what they do.

We're excited to get to know you and work together!
