Nebius Academy is an international online learning platform helping engineering teams master AI and cloud technologies. We build hands-on, industry-relevant programs for B2B audiences — combining deep technical expertise with real-world application.
Our QA curriculum focuses on AI-assisted quality engineering: how to use modern AI tools to write smarter tests, automate faster, and build more reliable mobile and backend products.
Who are we looking for?
We are building a talent pool of experienced QA engineers and technical experts for ongoing roles as Instructors, Authors, and Subject Matter Experts in our AI-assisted QA educational program.
We are looking for specialists across the following areas: Kotlin, Swift, Java, Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Mobile QA (Android / iOS), and other languages with a QA focus.
A strong candidate doesn't just know their stack deeply — they actively use AI-assisted QA tools in their daily workflow. We prioritize hands-on experience with tools such as Cursor, testRigor, Magic Inspector, Rainforest QA, AI-powered test generation, agentic workflows, MCP ecosystem integrations, or similar. The ability to teach others how to integrate these tools into real QA practice is what sets our experts apart.
These are Talent Pool positions — we continuously review applications and build our roster of experts. This means there may not be an immediate opening at the time you apply, but strong candidates will be added to our talent pool and contacted as relevant opportunities arise.
You can join us on a part-time basis (~10–15h/week), contributing as an instructor leading live sessions and workshops, as a course author creating learning materials, or as a subject matter expert supporting curriculum development. Teaching sessions are compensated separately.
Compensation: $40–80/hour, depending on experience and format of collaboration.
Our selection process is fully asynchronous and designed to respect your time:
• Application Review — we evaluate your profile against our current needs
• Async Video Interview — a short self-recorded interview (10–15 minutes max)
• Test Assignment — approximately 1 hour to complete
• Talent Pool — finalists are added to our active roster of vetted experts
• Hiring Manager & Tech Expert Call — once a relevant position opens, we invite you to a live interview with our team
• Offer — we extend an offer for a relevant position upon successful completion of the process
Apply now — we review applications on an ongoing basis.
Please submit your resume in English.
