    Who are we?

    Code Ninjas is the nation’s fastest-growing kids coding franchise. In our center, kids ages 5-14 learn to code in a fun, non-intimidating way – by playing and building video games they love. Kids have a blast and can’t wait to come back. Parents are thrilled as their children gain confidence and new skills including coding, math, logic, and problem-solving, as they progress from white to black belt. Our core promise is, Kids have fun, parents see results. We believe in these words so much that it’s written on the walls in our center.

    What are we looking for?

    We are looking for instructors to join our dynamic and fun team while working toward our common goal: providing a fun and safe learning environment for children. Our Code Sensei's (as we call them) are the lifeblood of our Code Ninjas center. This individual oversees the day-to-day coaching and student engagement. Are you experienced in working with children? Do you enjoy teaching and building problem-solving skills in young engineering minds? Are you a game enthusiast? Have you mentored youth? This could be the role for you. Terrific opportunity for students looking to gain experience for future careers in engineering, teaching, and computer science. Sensei’s only need basic coding knowledge and will be given the training to help coach children at each level.
