STEM Education Curriculum Developer (NYC, Full-Time, For Ages 3-12)

Job Location New York Job Description About NORY At NORY, we design learning journeys where every child in NYC and Boston becomes a risk-taking entrepreneur, an inquisitive problem solver, and an empathetic leader. We are the largest STEM camp provider in NYC, serving 4,000+ campers annually. We hold every project, every lesson, and every teacher interaction to the highest bar in maker education. Dive into our world at nory. co/summer nory. co/summer, and watch this video: be/G8vgorW3y7U. The Role: We are looking for an educator who can imagine a STEM project, build it with their own hands, write the lesson plan, train the teachers, and then show up at the campsite to coach those teachers through delivering it. The work spans the design studio and the classroom. If you are a maker, a curriculum builder, and a teacher coach in equal measure, and you want to shape how Generation Alpha experiences STEM, this role is for you. The curriculum you build here will not sit in a binder. It will be taught to thousands of children every year, and soon to tens of thousands. The impact compounds. The bar is the highest in maker education. Your Canvas: Curriculum Development: You will turn hands-on STEM projects into lesson plans for children ages 3 to 12, covering learning objectives, pacing, scaffolding, and differentiation across age bands. Storytelling and Experience Design: You will wrap each project in an immersive theme. Animal worlds. Musical theater. Inventions for people with disabilities. A week of camp should feel like a Disney World ride and connect dots across disciplines. You bring the “why” that captivates a 7-year-old. Hands-On Project Development: You will build and prototype. Alongside our Fabricator team and fellow curriculum developers, you will design and make the STEM projects that campers create: woodworking, basic electronics, Arduino, Microbits, Scratch, and more. You bring your own maker experience to the table, and you hold it to the highest standard of quality. Teacher Coaching, at HQ and at Campsites: You will build the training materials and run training at HQ. During summer, you will be at the campsites, observing classrooms in real time, giving teachers immediate feedback, and jumping in when a lesson needs a save. The Operations Translator: Your work connects to the team that packs materials, hires teachers, and runs venues. A single missing material on a pack list or a single unclear instruction will show up in a room of 12 kids on a Monday morning. Meticulous documentation is part of the job. Quality Control: You will pilot lessons, gather teacher feedback after every camp week, and iterate. Every project must be fail-proof before it ships to a campsite. Who You Are Teaching and Curriculum Background: You have designed curriculum and taught it. Hands-On STEM Maker: You can build. You have made things with woodworking, basic electronics (circuits, motors), Arduino, computing platforms like Raspberry Pi or Microbits, and coding tools like Scratch. You do not need to be a master fabricator, but a portfolio of your own projects is expected. Coding knowledge is a strong plus. On the Ground in Summer: You will be at campsites across NYC during the summer season, not behind a screen. The best lesson plans become great curriculum when you are there to coach the teachers delivering them. Communication-First: You can write a 10-page teacher guide, record a 60-second video walkthrough, and give live in-classroom feedback to a teacher mid-lesson with equal skill. Child Development Insight: You understand how a 4-year-old’s project differs from a 10-year-old’s, and you design and coach accordingly. Application Requirements: Join Our Vision: Our Ways of Being We are searching for educators who are not just skilled but also aligned with our core values. At NORY, our ‘Ways of Being’ ( nory. co/value nory. co/value) guide everything we do: We are purposeful in our actions, always asking “why” to cultivate inner motivation.

We actively seek feedback, embracing different perspectives and effective methods that contribute to our growth. We are unifiers, fostering a loving and caring team environment that deeply values empathy and compassion. Compensation and Benefits: Salary: $70,000 to $90,000 per year; Benefits: 401K, Health and Dental, Paid Time Off Ready to Make a Difference?
