Software engineering is changing faster than traditional academic programs can adapt. Generative AI is reshaping how engineers design, build, debug, and ship software—and employers increasingly expect new graduates to be AI-native from day one.

As Director of Curriculum, you will define how CodePath bridges the gap between academic computer science programs and industry expectations. You will lead the transition to a more modular, flexible curriculum architecture that enables rapid iteration, targeted updates, and new delivery models across:

Undergraduate, for-credit university partnerships

Undergraduate, Direct-to-student programs

Employer-focused upskilling and reskilling offerings

Our programs, run both online and in-person, begin with inspiration and build toward technical excellence and practical mastery, supported by learning pathways and strong student support systems. Our curriculum is grounded in proven learning principles — proper leveling, balanced pacing, spaced repetition, blended synchronous and asynchronous learning, peer collaboration, and project-based work.

You will define how we prepare students to become AI-native software engineers and steward our course portfolio to support CodePath’s growth from 20,000 to 100,000 students per year.
