About IronhackIronhack is an education startup founded to disrupt the way tech education works. Doesn’t it seem odd that we’ve been learning the same way since the Industrial Revolution? While most industries constantly innovate to become faster, better, and more efficient, education often follows a long, costly path that doesn’t always lead to fulfilling careers. At Ironhack, we empower students to create a new path—one that leads to meaningful careers in software development, product design, data analytics, and data science in a fraction of the time and cost of traditional education. Our mission is to be unapologetically outcomes-driven. Whether our students want to change careers, advance professionally, skip university, or start their own company, we work tirelessly to make learning immersive, practical, and accessible. Seeing our students succeed is what motivates us every day. About the RoleWe are looking for afull-time Lead Instructor for our Data Science & Machine Learning Bootcampat ourRemote Campus .
