Job Overview

HSDE welcomes applications from qualified individuals who are passionate about helping youth learn, explore, and innovate. University students, particularly senior undergraduate and graduate students, are strongly preferred.

Facilitators will lead engaging, inquiry-based STEAM learning experiences through hands-on projects, experimentation, research, problem-solving, and real-world challenges.

This is not a childcare or camp counselor role. Facilitators mentor youth as they ask questions, test ideas, develop solutions, and present what they have learned.

Lead hands-on STEM activities that encourage curiosity, critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving.
Guide youth in investigating questions, testing ideas, designing solutions, and learning from mistakes.
Support participants in developing projects addressing community and real-world challenges.
Create an inclusive, respectful, and supportive learning workplace.
Track participant engagement, progress, projects, and achievements.
Collaborate with the program team to improve activities and learning experiences.
Build positive relationships with youth, families, community partners, and team members.
Follow HSDE's youth safety, privacy, professional conduct, and program policies.

Experience in research, coding, laboratory work, engineering, design, technology, or inquiry-based projects is an asset.
