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.
A Senior Team Lead at Turing College is able to work at an extremely flexible time schedule and is expected to do so in addition to their main role in the industry.
RESPONSIBILITIES
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. Main principles of reviewing:
- Project review is an analog of a code(task) review with a senior at a real workplace. We want to make it feel like a collaborative experience with a supportive lead in an actual team.
- A review happens at a time suitable for the reviewer. In our platform, the reviewer adds the time slots during which they are available and the learner can choose those times.
- Every project review requires preparation & reflection - STL should come prepared. The time spent on preparation, as well as the actual review time, is compensated.
- 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. Stand-up is a core part of the learning experience at Turing College.
- The minimum requirement for STLs is to have 1 stand-up session per week.
- A stand-up meeting usually lasts around 45 minutes.
- Other ways to contribute to the community:
- Leading open sessions. Open sessions are drop-in drop-out calls during which learners can join and ask technical questions about their project work.
- Contributing to content improvements or other initiatives.
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.

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:
