Nebius Academy is an educational platform that helps experienced software developers stay at the forefront of technological innovation. We create specialized courses that teach professionals how to effectively use AI tools in real-world development workflows (AI Assited Programming).
Our programs are designed to help engineers critically and productively apply artificial intelligence in their professional work, improving code quality, development speed, and overall work efficiency.
Our mission is to provide engineers with access to cutting-edge knowledge in AI-assisted development and help them become leaders in the new era of programming.
Who are we looking for?
We are building a talent pool of experienced developers and technical experts for ongoing roles as Instructors, Authors, and Subject Matter Experts in our AI-assisted programming educational program.
We are looking for specialists across the following languages and platforms: Golang, Kotlin, Swift, C++, Mobile Development (Android / iOS), and other languages.
A strong candidate doesn't just know their language deeply — they actively use AI-assisted development tools in their daily workflow. We prioritize hands-on experience with tools such as Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, or similar AI coding assistants. The ability to teach others how to integrate these tools effectively into real development work is what sets our instructors apart.
These are Talent Pool positions — we continuously review applications and build our roster of experts. This means there may not be an immediate opening at the time you apply, but strong candidates will be added to our talent pool and contacted as relevant opportunities arise.
You can join us on a part-time basis, contributing as an instructor leading live sessions and workshops, as a course author creating learning materials, or as a subject matter expert supporting curriculum development.
