SUMMER CAMP INSTRUCTOR — Code Ninjas Seattle July 7 – August 15 | Monday–Friday, 8:15am–3:15pm | $20/hr (~$700/wk)

Who are we?

Code Ninjas Seattle is a coding and STEM learning center for kids ages 7–14. This summer marks our 5th year running camps here in Seattle, and we've built something we're proud of — a strong community of returning campers who look forward to it every year, and instructors who've consistently loved being part of it.

The Role

We're looking for one energetic, self-motivated instructor to lead our summer camps. This is a standalone role — you'll be the one running the room, guiding a group of 8–12 kids through weekly themed projects. All curriculum is provided, and you'll have support from our center staff whenever you need it. It's an ideal fit for a college student or recent graduate looking for meaningful, hands-on teaching experience.

Camp topics rotate weekly and include Roblox Studio, Minecraft, Scratch, video editing, 3D design, and more.

Responsibilities

Lead daily camp sessions for 8–12 kids ages 7–14, using provided curriculum and materials

Create an engaging, inclusive environment where campers feel encouraged to experiment and create

Guide students through hands-on projects — troubleshooting, encouraging, and celebrating their wins

Manage the full camp day: setup, pacing, transitions, and cleanup

Communicate warmly with parents at drop-off and pick-up

Capture photos and short video clips for documentation and social media

Qualifications

Currently enrolled in college or a recent graduate — this role is built around your summer availability

Genuine enthusiasm for technology, gaming, or creative digital tools

Experience working with kids in any capacity — tutoring, coaching, babysitting, camp counseling, or classroom work

Comfortable taking ownership of a room; you don't need a script to keep things moving

Patient, adaptable, and good at reading a group's energy

Familiarity with any of the camp tools (Roblox, Minecraft, Scratch, etc.) is a plus — we'll fill in the gaps
