Job description

Design & Technology (D&T) Educator – Senior School

Location : Inventure Academy, Bangalore

Experience : Minimum 2 years of teaching Design & Technology / Engineering / Applied Design at the high school level, or equivalent design / industry experience. Candidates with 2+ years in the design or art field, with exposure to design-specific courses, are also welcome.

Why This Role is Exciting

D&T in the senior school is where creativity meets engineering—where ideas evolve into real-world solutions. As a D&T Educator, you’ll mentor learners through advanced design thinking, research, prototyping, and evaluation. Students will work with diverse materials, tools, and digital technologies as they move from concept to refined prototypes.

You’ll foster technical skill, independence, and creativity, ensuring a safe, inspiring, and well-organised workspace. From human-centred design challenges to CAD modelling, fabrication, and testing, you’ll guide young designers through an authentic design-engineering journey that prepares them for college, careers, and beyond.

What You’ll Do

  • Teach and mentor senior school learners through a project-based D&T curriculum grounded in research, ideation, modelling, prototyping, and evaluation.
  • Guide students through design-thinking workflows—writing design briefs, analysing user needs, generating ideas, and iterating based on feedback.
  • Deliver engaging lessons across key D&T domains :

Technical drawing and modelling

CAD (2D / 3D)

Engineering basics (mechanical, structural, materials)

Prototyping and fabrication

Evaluation, documentation, and portfolio building

  • Supervise and mentor students through major coursework and portfolio projects—helping them scope ideas, plan materials, create prototypes, refine outcomes, and present their work.
  • Ensure adherence to all workshop safety protocols and promote responsible use of tools, machines, and materials.
  • Maintain and organise the D&T workshop—manage setup / reset, materials, consumables, and repairs;
  • coordinate procurement and inventory.

  • Collaborate with the D&T and Makerspace teams to refine lesson flows, assessments, and project frameworks;
  • contribute to the ongoing development of the senior school D&T curriculum.

  • Document learning through design journals, process photos, prototype iterations, and evaluations.
  • Track student progress and share relevant updates with the Senior School team.
  • Cultivate a culture of creativity, rigour, and craftsmanship—where students design with intention, test thoughtfully, and take pride in quality outcomes.
  • What You Bring

  • Bachelor’s / Master’s degree in Design, Engineering, Architecture, Product Design, or Applied Arts.
  • Strong skills in CAD, modelling, fabrication, and prototyping (digital fabrication experience is a plus).
  • Experience mentoring senior school or college-age learners through hands-on projects.
  • A safety-first mindset and familiarity with workshop tools and protocols.
  • Organised, proactive, and clear communicator with a reflective “designer–maker” mindset.
  • What You’ll Gain

  • The satisfaction of guiding young designers through meaningful, real-world projects.
  • Mentorship and collaboration with D&T and Makerspace Leads.
  • Professional development opportunities through workshops, certifications, and peer observations.
  • A growing portfolio of student work and systems you’ve helped design and refine.
  • A chance to shape the next generation of innovative, ethical, and skilled designers.
  • Apply if You Are…

  • A creative problem-solver who values both design thinking and technical rigour.
  • A patient mentor who helps students navigate complex design challenges step by step.
  • A systems-thinker who runs an efficient, safe, and inspiring workshop.
  • An educator who believes design, engineering, and making are essential future-ready skills.
