Senior Technical Trainer — Machine Learning

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Senior Technical Trainer — Machine Learning based in United Kingdom.

We are seeking a hands‑on machine learning practitioner with a passion for teaching to design and deliver engaging technical courses for engineers. In this remote freelance role, you will help learners progress from core machine learning concepts to training and evaluating their own models through practical, lab‑based learning. You will collaborate with curriculum specialists and production teams to develop clear lessons, hands‑on exercises, and real‑world demonstrations.

The focus is on sharing your technical expertise through compelling scripts, video presentations, and lab walkthroughs rather than managing production tasks. The initial paid course project typically lasts around three months and can be completed alongside existing professional commitments. With flexible hours and a delivery plan agreed in advance, the opportunity may lead to further projects or a full‑time position.

• Design and develop course content: Collaborate with the curriculum team to define course structure, sections, lessons, practical labs, and notebooks that support progressive learning.

• Create hands‑on learning experiences: Write detailed lab specifications for the dedicated lab development team, then test the completed environments to ensure they work as intended.

• Write engaging educational scripts: Develop short, story‑driven video lessons of approximately six minutes each, making machine learning concepts accessible, intuitive, and relevant to engineers.

• Deliver technical presentations: Narrate scripted lessons confidently in English and record demonstrations and lab‑solution walkthroughs that reinforce key concepts.

• Apply practical machine learning expertise: Build course material grounded in real experience with training, evaluating, and deploying machine learning models.

• Incorporate editorial feedback: Work through structured reviews, particularly during the initial course section, and refine content to meet established quality and teaching standards.

• Collaborate remotely: Coordinate with curriculum and production teams through weekly syncs and Slack, maintaining sufficient time‑zone overlap with colleagues based in Europe and Asia.

• Focus on teaching and technical content: Partner with the production team, which manages video editing, animation, lab infrastructure, and publishing.

• Hands‑on machine learning experience: Demonstrated ability to train, evaluate, and ship models using frameworks such as scikit‑learn, PyTorch, or Tensor Flow.

• Strong technical communication skills: Ability to explain machine learning concepts, including the reasoning behind different approaches, clearly to engineers who are new to the field.

• Excellent English proficiency: Strong written and spoken English, with the ability to write natural scripts, deliver clear narration, and communicate confidently on camera.

• A genuine passion for teaching: Evidence of enjoying knowledge‑sharing through online courses, tutorials, technical talks, workshops, mentoring, or other educational activities.

• Current technical knowledge: An active interest in machine learning developments and a commitment to continuously learning and improving.

• Presentation confidence: Comfort presenting technical material on camera in a clear, engaging, and accessible way.

• Openness to feedback: Willingness to follow an established teaching methodology, collaborate with editors, and improve course content through structured feedback.

• Preferred qualifications:

  • Experience publishing courses on platforms such as Udemy, Pluralsight, or Coursera, or creating…
