What they do

Udacity runs an online learning platform for technical skills such as AI, data science, and cloud computing. It sells Nanodegree programs, which are bundled courses, and shorter courses. It works with individuals, companies, and governments. Udacity is now part of Accenture.

What they value

• Be outcome obsessed: put customers and learners first and measure results.
• Embrace curiosity: keep learning, challenge norms, and debate openly.
• Take the lead: speak up, take risks based on data, and accept change.
• Celebrate the assist: work with respect and trust, and credit unseen work.

Where they hire

Most of the 24 roles are remote contract roles. Many mentor roles cover time zones in the US, Canada, Europe, the Middle East, India, and Asia-Pacific. Some roles are for people in India, the UAE, Argentina, Japan, or the US and Canada. One role is in San Francisco. US applicants must not need visa sponsorship, now or later.

Teams and roles

Udacity says it has more than 700 industry experts in its mentor network. Almost every role on the board is part-time contract work for learners in its programs. Many postings add people to a pool, and Udacity contacts them when a project starts.
