Job SummaryThe Lead Technology Instructor serves as the primary technical educator, curriculum manager, and instructional team leader for the Digital Technology Workforce Development Program. This role designs and builds an AI-forward, multi-population technology curriculum from the ground up, delivers instruction across at least three distinct cohort populations, works to support the Technology Instructor, and works in close collaboration with the Senior Director of Social Innovation to ensure curriculum effectiveness, quality, and alignment with workforce outcomes.

This position requires a level of curriculum development, instructional leadership, and AI expertise that far exceeds the scope of any prior Codetalk or Fortifi instructional role.ESSENTIAL DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIESLead the design and ongoing development of AI-forward, multi-population technology curriculum that serves three distinct cohort tracks: women’s healing-centered track, co-ed justice-involved/housing-unstable track, and youth (18–30) track. Build the curriculum architecture, including modular “stacked” components: a shared foundational skills layer, population-specific contextual modules, and an advanced track for participants demonstrating higher technical aptitude. Develop all new assignments, projects, assessments, quizzes, rubrics, and grading systems across all modules and cohort levels. Integrate AI tools, AI-assisted workflows, and prompt engineering practices throughout every stage of the curriculum, ensuring that AI fluency is a core graduate competency. Work directly and regularly with the Senior Director of Social Innovation to present curriculum updates, review performance data, analyze graduate employment outcomes by module, and make evidence-based curriculum adjustments. Evaluate the effectiveness of each curriculum module through student performance data, employer feedback, and graduate employment outcomes; redesign modules that are not producing measurable skill gains or employment results. Design the advanced skills track curriculum for participants with higher technical aptitude, including deeper AI integration, data concepts, product development, and workplace project simulations. Maintain up-to-date, professionally presented curriculum documentation, lesson plans, and learning materials to a publication-ready standard. Conduct ongoing research into AI, web technology, and employment market trends to ensure the curriculum reflects the most current and employable skill sets.Other duties and responsibilities may be assigned.
