About the Role

As Capability Manager Frontend Technologies, you own the teaching capability of every instructor delivering frontend content across our campus network. You are the gate between "hired" and "cleared to teach" — no instructor delivers a frontend session on your track without your certification.

This is a team leadership role with a strong hands-on technical core. You will lead a large, distributed group of frontend instructors spread across campuses — assessing their technical depth, running capability evaluations, closing skill gaps through targeted training, and keeping the instructor bench healthy enough to absorb absences and scale-ups without disrupting a single class.

You'll need to be genuinely strong in frontend engineering — you cannot evaluate what you cannot do yourself — and equally comfortable running structured operations, tracking data, and having direct conversations about performance.

Key Responsibilities

1. Instructor Capability Evaluation & Certification

- Design and run technical capability evaluations for frontend instructors covering HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, and applied project work.
- Conduct mock teaching sessions and assess pedagogy alongside technical accuracy — concept clarity, board/screen work, error handling, and student Q&A; response quality.
- Certify instructors as deployment-ready for specific frontend subjects, and maintain the certification record for each instructor on your track.
- Re-evaluate instructors periodically as curriculum and stack evolve, so certification never goes stale.

2. Bench Health & Backup Allocation

- Own the frontend instructor queue: when a campus raises a backup request for an absent instructor, take ownership and allocate a certified replacement within the agreed turnaround time.
- Maintain a live, accurate roster of certified frontend instructors, their campus mapping, subject coverage, and availability.
- Forecast bench requirements against upcoming campus schedules and flag coverage risks before they become class cancellations.

3. Team Management

- Lead and manage a large distributed team of frontend instructors across multiple campuses,



holding each accountable to the defined delivery standard.
- Run regular 1-on-1s and team reviews; set individual goals, track progress, and drive consistency of delivery across the group.
- Handle escalations, conflicts, and day-to-day people issues within the instructor group, and act as their primary point of contact with the central academic team.
- Build engagement and retention on the track — onboard new instructors well, keep strong performers motivated, and reduce attrition.

4. Training & Gap Closure

- Identify capability gaps from evaluation data and student feedback, and design targeted upskilling interventions to close them.
- Run onboarding and refresher training for frontend instructors on our internal learning portal.
- Own Performance Improvement Plans for instructors falling below the quality bar — set clear criteria, run structured check-ins, and drive the outcome either way.

5. Quality Monitoring

- Review post-class student feedback and assessment outcomes for frontend sessions; investigate consistently low-scoring instructors or subjects.
- Sit in on live and recorded classes to audit delivery quality against the defined bar.
- Report track-level capability and quality metrics to academic leadership on a regular cadence.

6. Content & Curriculum Support

- Partner with the curriculum team to keep frontend content current with industry practice, and translate curriculum changes into instructor readiness plans.
- Build evaluation rubrics, question banks, and reference delivery material for the frontend track.

7. Cross-Functional Coordination

- Work with campus POCs, hiring, and program teams to keep instructor supply aligned with campus demand.
- Support the hiring team on technical screening for frontend instructor roles.





Required Skills & Qualifications

Technical

- 2–4 years of hands-on experience in frontend development, teaching, or a blended role.
- Strong command of HTML5, CSS3, and modern JavaScript (ES6+).
- Working proficiency in React — components, state management, hooks, routing.
- Comfortable with responsive design, Git/GitHub, REST API integration, and browser dev tools.
- Able to independently build and review production-quality frontend projects.

Functional

- Proven team management experience — has directly led a sizeable team, owned their performance, run 1-on-1s and reviews, and handled hiring, escalations, and exits. This is non-negotiable for the role.
- Demonstrated ability to evaluate technical skill in others — through interviewing, mentoring, code review, or training.
- Structured and data-comfortable: can maintain rosters, track metrics, and work in spreadsheets and internal tools without hand-holding.
- Strong written and verbal communication in English; able to give direct, specific, actionable feedback.
- High ownership and follow-through — this role is measured on whether classes run, not on effort spent.

Education

- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.

Good to Have

- Prior experience in an ed-tech, training, or academic-quality function.
- Experience teaching or mentoring in a classroom or bootcamp setting.
- Exposure to TypeScript, Next.js, Tailwind CSS, or testing frameworks.
- Familiarity with LMS platforms and instructor performance tracking systems.

What Success Looks Like (First 6 Months)

- Every active frontend instructor across the network is evaluated and certification-current.
- Backup requests on the frontend track are claimed and fulfilled within the defined SLA, with zero unfilled classes.
- A documented evaluation rubric and question bank exists for the frontend track.
- Measurable improvement in student feedback scores for frontend sessions.
- A stable, engaged instructor team with a explicit performance cadence — regular 1-on-1s running, goals set, and attrition under control.
