Engineering Coach
Leland
If you want to teach while staying close to your own engineering roots, this role lets you do both. As an Engineering Coach at Leland, you'll guide people breaking into or advancing within engineering—and you'll build real expertise in mentoring along the way.
Your day includes teaching CAD and engineering design fundamentals, helping clients solve technical problems, and keeping them updated on emerging tools like AI in engineering. You'll also handle the career side: resume reviews, interview prep, salary negotiation, networking strategy, and support for those exploring freelance paths. You'll guide people through certifications and project management too.
This role fits engineers with solid technical foundations, a knack for explaining concepts clearly, and genuine interest in helping others navigate career decisions. A portfolio or project experience matters more than a specific degree.
To apply, submit your background and a short note on why you want to coach engineers. Apply through CareerJumpShip and let Leland know what draws you to this work.
