Senior Team Lead in AI engineering in London

Turing College aims to build a personal relationship with the learners which helps to achieve amazing educational results. While the main learning at Turing College is self‐paced, with the 1on1 support of industry professionals, learners build real skills and a portfolio of projects. Our mentors' community is the crucial resource that helps learners study more efficiently compared to what they could achieve on their own.

As a Senior Team Lead (STL), you will be the main part of this personal interaction and the main representative of Turing College to a learner – a role that is arguably the most important and influential that we have. There are a couple of ways to contribute as Senior Team Lead:

• Project reviews: Project reviews are the most important part of Turing College education methodology. During the review, the learner presents the project work, and the STLs, based on the task requirements and their own experience, review the work. A review usually lasts around 45 minutes, while the preparation may take anywhere between 15 minutes to an hour.
• Leading stand‐up meetings: A stand‐up at Turing College is a meeting led by a Senior Team Lead during which learners get to regularly meet other learners from their course and build a community, discuss relevant topics, practice speaking skills, and get help with their studies. The minimum requirement for STLs is to have 1 stand‐up session per week.
• Leading Virtual Classrooms: These are voice channels which students join when they wish to study together with their peers and a mentor available to help them. Virtual Classroom times are usually set as a weekly schedule in advance and a single mentor ideally takes at least 2 hours in succession.
• Other ways to contribute to the community: Leading open sessions, leading workshops, and contributing to content improvements or other initiatives. All activities are done fully online.

Why Become a Mentor?

• Get to know the top up‐and‐coming talents in the industry
• Deepen your own knowledge, even if you are very experienced already
• Practice your mentorship and leadership skills
• Become a part of Turing College mentor community – we organise multiple events throughout the year to allow networking with exceptional specialists
• Know that you are working on something meaningful, positively affecting lives of many enthusiastic people willing to learn what you already know

Expected Qualifications

Our Senior Team Leads (STL) are seasoned industry professionals with a minimum of 2‐3 years, ideally more, of experience in roles such as data analyst, data scientist, data engineer, web developer, or digital marketer. Academic experience (e.g. lecturing, PhD work, research etc.) is a strong bonus, but needs to be complemented with industry experience as well. Since all our courses and teaching are done in English, excellent mastery of the language is required.

Depending on the specific course they are involved in, we expect our STLs to have proficiency in various technical skills, including but not limited to:

• AI Engineering: Experience in building products that strongly utilise generative AI. Experience integrating different models into these products, such as OpenAI's GPT models, Gemini models, Llama, etc. Experience with most up‐to‐date AI Engineering concepts and architectures.
• Strong software engineering background
