Something Big Is Happening in Erbil. Be Part of It.
Over the past three years, something remarkable has been taking place in a small campuss in erbil. Children as young as five are building robots. Teenagers are creating AI tools that detect diseases and read emotions. Kids who once thought technology was something that happened to them are now the ones making it happen.
That's The Code Lab. And we're just getting started.
We're Looking for Two Passionate Educators to Join Our Team
This isn't a tutoring job. It isn't a side gig. It's an opportunity to be part of a growing movement that is genuinely changing how the next generation of Kurdistan thinks about technology, creativity, and their own potential.
At The Code Lab, our teachers don't just deliver lessons — they spark moments. They're the reason a 9-year-old goes home and can't stop talking about what they built today. They're the reason parents message us saying their child has finally found something they love. They're the reason this city is quietly producing some of the most impressive young tech talent in the region.
Who We're Looking For
You don't have to be the most technically advanced person in the room. But you do have to care — deeply — about young people and about the future you're helping them build.
You're the right person if:
<ul>
<li>You light up when a student finally understands something difficult</li>
<li>You believe technology should empower people, not intimidate them</li>
<li>You're curious, adaptable, and always learning yourself</li>
<li>You want your work to mean something beyond a monthly salary</li>
<li>You're excited by the idea of being part of something that is growing fast and going somewhere</li>
</ul>
Experience in coding, robotics, AI, or STEM education is a strong advantage. But passion and the right mindset will always matter more to us than a perfect CV.
What You'll Be Part Of
<ul>
<li>A team that genuinely cares about its mission and each other</li>
<li>A learning environment that is hands-on, creative, and never boring</li>
<li>Programs that have been recognized by government officials, international organizations, and hundreds of families across Erbil</li>
<li>A community of students who will remember you — because great teachers always leave a mark</li>
<li>An organization that is expanding, evolving, and building something that will outlast all of us</li>
</ul>
Two Positions Are Now Open
We are currently expanding our team and welcoming applications for two teaching positions at The Code Lab. Details of the roles, schedule, and compensation will be shared with shortlisted candidates.
