Program Instructor
JobID: ITCJP0050
Story behind the need:
ITCity Consulting is seeking an experienced Scrum Master Instructor to lead our Scrum Master Training and Placement Program. You'll bring real-world Agile/Scrum project experience into the classroom, teaching students not just the frameworks but how Scrum actually plays out in North American workplaces — team dynamics, stakeholder management, and real delivery challenges. Ideal for someone who's led Agile teams hands-on and wants to help newcomers, fresh graduates and career-changers break into Scrum Master roles with practical, market-relevant skills.
C$ 1500 - C$ 3000 / per cohort
Contract - Hybrid
Start Date: October 1, 2026
Location: USA/Canada-Remote
Core Requirements:
You have a minimum of 10 years of experience as a Scrum Master or Agile practitioner in large corporations.
You have worked at least the 2 years in Canada or USA as a Scrum Master.
You have CSM (Certified ScrumMaster) and A-CSM (Advanced Certified ScrumMaster) certifications.
You demonstrable proficiency in English, both written and verbal, for instructional delivery.
Possess a valid:
Canadian work authorization (Work Permit, PR, Citizenship)
USA work authorization (OPT, Greencard, Citizenship)
Nature of the job:
This is a solid part-time commitment, not a casual teaching arrangement. ITCity holds instructors to a high standard of professionalism, availability, and engagement, and these are actively monitored throughout the program.
Instructors are required to deliver 6–8 hours of live lecture time per week (exact schedule TBD based on cohort needs and instructor availability), which may include evenings/weekends depending on program format. Beyond delivering lectures per the agreed curriculum and timeline, instructors are expected to assess and grade student assignments and projects in a timely manner, respond to and resolve student queries, and remain reasonably responsive to student and coordinator communications outside scheduled hours.
Instructors will work with a mix of students — some experienced, others new to the field — and must be able to meet each learner where they are, adapting teaching styles and methods to accommodate different learning paces. A positive, constructive, and encouraging attitude is essential, as it directly shapes student motivation and outcomes.
The Program Instructor owns the success of their cohort. This includes going beyond the core curriculum to develop supplementary materials — quizzes, assessments, and practice resources — and providing constructive, actionable feedback throughout. This role suits educators who take teaching seriously, are committed to student outcomes, and are willing to invest the effort a well-run cohort requires.
