Ready to take your teaching and CS education chops to the next level?
Firia Labs is looking for a mission-driven, people-loving, Python-fluent Education Specialist to

development, and outreach. You'll train teachers, support schools, help shape curriculum, and
represent Firia Labs in the vibrant world of CS and STEM education.
We're open to hiring remotely, but if you're located near our Alabama HQ, working from the
office is a plus. Whether you've been in the classroom yourself or worked shoulder-to-shoulder
with teachers in districts or education orgs, we want someone who understands the realities of
CS education- and is excited to help shape its future.
