In this role, you will be responsible for fostering a culture of knowledge, skill collaboration, and creativity where both individual and team growth are prioritized. Apply your industry experience to provide support and mentorship to team members working on customer-facing solutions. Beyond technical guidance, your ability to lead and manage will ensure that the team remains adaptable and continuously improving. If you are driven by curiosity and a desire to mentor, this role will offer you the chance to shape the future of industrial technology while supporting the growth of a talented team. The ideal candidate will be passionate about working with the program's diverse student body and growing tomorrow's workforce in industrial mechatronics and automation applications.

Design and facilitate hands-on learning experiences that guide students in developing practical troubleshooting, integration, installation, and maintenance skills used in industry, all the way up to Industry 4.0 integrated enterprise. Translate complex industry concepts into clear, scaffolded lessons that help students progressively build competence across integrated mechanical, electrical, fluid power, robotic, and control technologies. Coach students through real world problem solving processes, modeling how professionals diagnose failures, evaluate tradeoffs, and make decisions in production settings. Develop and update curriculum and learning materials to ensure students gain current, job ready competencies aligned with industry standards and emerging technologies. Provide individualized feedback and mentoring that supports each student's technical growth, professional habits, and confidence. Cultivate a collaborative, respectful, and inclusive learning environment where students practice teamwork, communication, and workplace behaviors essential for industry success. Model and teach safe work practices by reinforcing relevant safety standards, supervising equipment use, and coaching students in creating a safety-first mindset. Maintain instructional labs and equipment to ensure tools, systems, and learning activities support high quality skill development. Guide students in exploring career pathways and developing the professional skills needed for employment, advancement, and lifelong learning in the automation ecosystem.

Duty:

Support program effectiveness through timely completion of administrative tasks, documentation, collaboration, and participation in departmental activities Tasks include: Evaluate student performance using clear, competency based criteria, and maintain accurate records that support student growth and program improvement.
