AI Trainer

AI Trainer – Empowering the Next Generation

Transform Lives Through Technology

Who We're Looking For

Are you passionate about artificial intelligence AND passionate about creating opportunities for young people who deserve a shot at the digital economy? We're seeking an AI Trainer who can bridge two worlds: cutting-edge technology and the lived experiences of youth who've faced systemic barriers.

This isn't your typical corporate training role. You'll be working with ambitious 18-25-year-olds who are hungry to learn but may have limited access to technology education. Your mission? Turn curiosity into capability, and capability into careers.

What You'll Actually Do

Be a Guide, Not Just a Teacher

Design and deliver hands-on AI training programs that make complex concepts click for learners at all levels

Teach practical AI skills: prompt engineering, using AI tools for real-world tasks, understanding machine learning basics, and ethical AI use

Create a learning environment where "I don't get it" is celebrated as the start of understanding, not a sign of failure

Make AI Accessible and Relevant

Break down AI jargon into plain language that connects to participants' daily lives and career aspirations

Develop projects that matter: helping local businesses, solving community problems, building portfolio pieces that open doors

Show how AI skills translate to actual job opportunities in content creation, customer service, data analysis, and beyond

Mentor and Motivate

Be the person who sees potential when others see obstacles

Provide one-on-one support for participants who need extra help or encouragement

Connect training to real career pathways and help participants envision their futures in tech

Stay Current, Stay Curious

Keep your finger on the pulse of AI tools and trends so you're always teaching what's relevant

Adapt your teaching methods based on what's working and what's not

Collaborate with industry partners to create internship and job placement opportunities

What You Bring

Must-Haves:

Strong working knowledge of AI tools and applications (ChatGPT, Claude, Midjourney, AI coding assistants, etc.)

Genuine belief that everyone can learn technology, regardless of their starting point

2+ years of experience in training, teaching, mentoring, or community education

Ability to explain technical concepts in multiple ways until they land

Cultural competency and understanding of barriers faced by underserved communities

Bonus Points:

Experience working with youth, particularly from underrepresented backgrounds

Background in social work, community organising, or youth development

Portfolio of creative training materials or curriculum design

Lived experience overcoming educational or economic barriers

Multilingual abilities

What Makes This Role Different

This isn't about lecturing from slides. You'll be rolling up your sleeves, troubleshooting alongside participants when code doesn't work, celebrating small wins, and occasionally convincing a skeptical 19-year-old that yes, they absolutely can master this.

You'll see lightbulb moments. You'll write recommendation letters. You'll get texts months later saying "I got the job!" You'll be tired some days and inspired most days.

The Impact You'll Make

Your participants aren't just learning AI—they're building economic mobility. Studies show that tech skills training can increase earning potential by 30-50% for young adults from underserved communities. You're not just teaching prompts and algorithms; you're teaching people how to open doors that were previously closed.

What We Offer

Competitive salary commensurate with experience

Professional development budget to keep your AI skills sharp

Flexible schedule that respects the realities of working with young adults

A team that actually values impact over metrics (though we track both)

The satisfaction of knowing your work matters deeply and measurably

Ready to Apply?

We're especially interested in candidates who bring diverse perspectives and lived experiences to this role. If you don't check every box but your gut says you'd be great at this, apply anyway.

Our Commitment:

We believe talent is equally distributed, but opportunity is not. We're building a team that reflects the communities we serve. All qualified applicants will receive consideration regardless of race, colour, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation or disability status.
