Engineering Coach

About the role

Leland is building the home for ambition in the age of AI. We connect people with the experts, programs, and communities they need to land the job, get into the school, or upskill for a world being rewritten by AI. We help businesses become AI-native through training, hiring, and infrastructure. Since our founding in 2021, we've helped tens of thousands of people reach their most ambitious goals and raised $19M from world-class investors. Ambition is sacred to us, and we've built a product that takes that seriously.

We're seeking an experienced Engineering Coach to work with clients looking to break into or grow within engineering roles. This role includes teaching core engineering design and CAD skills, as well as helping clients strengthen problem solving, technical skills, and research and development abilities. Coaches also guide clients through certification requirements, project management, and applying emerging tools like AI fundamentals and AI automation to their engineering work. On the career side, coaches offer resume review and interview prep, along with networking strategy, salary negotiation, and support for those pursuing freelancing opportunities. Ideal candidates have hands-on experience in engineering (as a practicing engineer, technical lead, or industry professional), a strong track record of solving complex technical problems, and a clear, structured approach to coaching clients through both technical and career growth. Coaches set their own hours and rates, host sessions virtually, and partner with our team to deliver a high-quality, supportive experience for every client.
