Mentor, Claude Corps

CodePath is the largest educator of college computer science students in the country. We've trained over 40,000 students from 1,000+ universities, and our partners include Amazon, Google, and other leading technology companies. We've spent nearly a decade training the next generation of technical talent, and we just launched a $150M initiative with Anthropic, building one of the most ambitious AI workforce programs in the world.

We're now expanding into new markets and scaling our team so we can move at the speed AI is transforming the workforce. People joining CodePath now will have the opportunity to help architect the next frontier of our work.

We believe technical skill is the fastest way to turn raw talent into real opportunity. We train the engineers the AI era runs on, building toward millions of learners, hundreds of millions in revenue, and billions in economic impact. If you want to own something and be part of a 0-to-1 journey at an organization moving at the speed of AI, this is the place to build it.

About the Role

Location: Remote, United States

Role-Type: Full-Time, W2 Employee

Reports To: Senior Manager of AI Practice, Claude Corps

Compensation: $110,000 to $124,500 per year

Start Date: September 21st, ahead of the October 19th cohort launch

Together with Anthropic, CodePath launched Claude Corps in June 2026, a national fellowship program with a $150 million commitment to place 1,000 AI-trained fellows at nonprofits across America. A fellowship is only as good as the engineer riding alongside the fellow when something breaks at midnight. As a CodePath Mentor, that engineer is you.

You are the full-time technical coach for a portfolio of roughly ten pods: about 20 fellows across 8-12 host organizations, from pre-Basecamp through the final day of the program. You are the coach that develops the fellow: you have first eyes on every pull request, you catch the patterns when something is off, and you proactively resolve any roadblocks that come up. The host org directs the fellow's day-to-day work, the curriculum team owns what they learn, and your Sr. Manager of AI Practice is the manager of record who holds the performance bar. Your job is to make each fellow better at the work.

The work is mostly written and asynchronous: code review on pull requests, feedback on roadmap drafts and quarterly business reviews, weekly office hours, and a few synchronous deep dives when something needs more than text. You will not be the deepest expert in the room for every fellow, and we are honest about that. You carry the throughline: you know your pods end to end, see patterns nobody else sees, and pull in deeper expertise the moment a single fellow needs it.

This role is built for engineers who would rather coach 20 engineers through real production work than ship one feature themselves. You are a few years further down the road than the fellows: enough professional reps to read code with judgment, a real coaching instinct, and the AI-native practice fellows are being trained to build.

Key Responsibilities

Coach your pods

• Carry roughly 10 pods (about 20 fellows across 8 to 12 host organizations) full-time from pre-Basecamp through final day, calibrating your time across the portfolio rather than sinking into one pod

• Have first eyes on every fellow's pull request, and give structured written feedback on their real work (PRs, roadmap drafts, architecture proposals, QBR deliverables) at the cohort's pace, not your inbox's

• Facilitate weekly 1:1s with all of the Fellows that report to you and document their progress, challenges, and successes using the tooling that Claude Corps operates on 

• Lead each fellow's Day 30/90/180/270 milestone review; you own the fellow-level synthesis and hand it up to your Sr. Manager of AI Practice, who owns the roll-up and the performance call

Deliver the curriculum in your pods

• Deliver the just-in-time modules the curriculum team designs; author lane- or pod-specific content when they commission it, because you have seen the gap from closer in

• Frame and debrief the cohort-wide all-hands your Sr. Manager of AI Practice runs, and the sessions where the curriculum team or a guest teaches your fellows directly

• Co-lead the Basecamp practical assessment alongside Anthropic's instructors; it is your first calibration on each cohort

Keep the program honest

• When the same problem shows up across three fellows, raise it to the right owner: the Claude Corps leadership team for program efficacy, the curriculum team for curriculum, partner experts for technical depth, host-org managers for a host issue, or your Sr. Manager of AI Practice for a delivery or performance issue

• Be the first stop when a fellow's technical work is at risk; surface it to your Sr. Manager of AI Practice, who owns the escalation

• Work AI-natively: Claude is core to your coaching loop for code review, pattern-spotting, and feedback at scale, and fellows should see you working the way they are being asked to work

Key Success Metrics

• Fellows can point to concrete examples of how your coaching improved their technical judgment, communication, or ability to navigate their host organization

• 100% of host-org managers you've worked with in the last 30 days can produce one concrete example of your impact

• You consistently identify recurring technical, professional, and organizational patterns across your pods and surface them to the right program owner

• Every Day 30 review is done and documented, handed up to your Sr. Manager of AI Practice, with a plan for any fellow whose work is at risk or ready for the next challenge

Qualifications

Required

• • 2–5 years of previous professional experience in software engineering, IT, data, technical program management, implementation, solutions engineering, forward deployed engineering, technical consulting, AI operations, or another technically adjacent role
  • Hands-on, current experience using modern AI tools and workflows. You should be able to speak concretely about how you use tools such as Claude, AI agents, LLM-based applications, automation, or similar technologies to solve real problems
  • Real coaching, mentorship, people-development, or management experience with concrete examples of helping someone navigate a challenge and become more successful
  • Experience working across stakeholders to understand a problem, clarify needs, recommend or implement a solution, and help people adopt a new way of working
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills, including the ability to facilitate discussions, coach someone through an important presentation, and provide thoughtful asynchronous feedback
  • Comfortable operating as a technical generalist: you can learn quickly, ask the right questions, understand unfamiliar systems, and bring in deeper expertise when needed
  • Comfortable coaching early-career professionals through ambiguity, feedback, organizational dynamics, and the expectations of working in a professional environment
  • Comfortable with remote, synchronous obligations across U.S. time zones and about two evenings a month for cohort sessions and milestone reviews

  Preferred

  • Client-facing consulting or implementation experience, particularly working with small businesses, nonprofits, education organizations, or teams adopting new technology
  • Experience helping an organization adopt AI, automation, new software, or another significant change in how work gets done
  • TA, bootcamp coach, fellowship mentor, instructor, manager, career coach, or other experience developing early-career technical talent
  • Experience facilitating workshops, presentations, professional learning, or technical training
  • Experience in a small or scrappy organization where understanding the business context was as important as delivering the technical solution
