Our rapidly growing global organization is revolutionizing how the enterprise market bridges the talent shortage and skills gaps during its digital transformation journey.
Udacity is one of the most exciting companies in Silicon Valley, and is disrupting the way we learn! Named as one of CNBC's Top 50 Disruptors, Udacity is becoming the preferred route for people to obtain the skills they need to get the jobs they want.
Udacity is a pioneer in online technical education, offering high-quality courses across a wide range of disciplines. Our catalog includes short and long programs, Nanodegrees (bundled courses), and content tailored to multiple skill levels, foundational, beginner, intermediate, and advanced, as well as business leadership audiences.
To ensure our content remains current, impactful, and industry-aligned, we continuously review and update our courses. We take a data-driven approach to evaluating content quality and identifying outdated material. Key performance metrics, such as student satisfaction, lesson ratings, and page-level feedback, help us determine whether a course requires maintenance. Throughout the year, various courses are kept under active maintenance to ensure they receive timely updates. To do this effectively, we regularly collaborate with expert contractors who help update the course content.
As new needs arise, we contact qualified candidates within our contractor pool to share project details, scope, and timelines. Contractors work closely with a Udacity team member who provides tooling, guidance, and logistical support. In most cases, contractors operate as individual contributors, though they may collaborate with other teams, such as Content Developers, Program Managers, and Learning Architects, to define scope, set priorities, and gather necessary information about the content under maintenance.
If you thrive on challenges, want to make an impact, and are interested in joining our contractor community, we encourage you to read on and apply.
We’re building a contractor pool of data professionals to support our School of Data Science. The School of Data Science currently offers courses and Nanodegrees across the end-to-end data lifecycle, including (but not limited to):
Our contractor pool helps ensure this catalog stays technically accurate, pedagogically sound, and aligned with industry practices in data, analytics, and AI.
To effectively maintain and update our data courses, you'll need to understand how students interact with our content. Our courses use two key technologies:
Udacity Workspaces
For practitioner content, we provide in-classroom workspaces so students don’t need to install or purchase any tools or set up environments locally. These workspaces are Docker containers running in Kubernetes, and students access them directly in the classroom page through their browser. For the School of Data Science, common workspace types include:
These workspaces need continuous updates and patching, and the exercises/project starter code must be updated to remain compatible with the updated workspace (e.g., Python libraries and data engineering toolchains).
Udacity Cloud Labs
We also provide temporary access to various cloud services via Cloud Labs. For the School of Data Science, these are primarily AWS and Azure labs that power data engineering, data architecture, and streaming exercises and projects. Cloud Labs are federated accounts that allow students to use the AWS or Azure consoles using temporary credentials. These cloud labs are pre-configured with RBAC and policies. In some cases, we pre-create several data resources, such as data warehouses, data lakes, Kafka clusters, or compute environments, via Infrastructure as Code to provision the resources required for an exercise or project.
A qualified candidate will have:

Not under Udacity branding. Searching Accenture's own careers site for either "Udacity" or "LearnVantage" returns no results, so if Udacity employee hiring is happening, it is not discoverable as Udacity hiring on any public surface. All 16 openings on Udacity's job board are independent-contractor or external-contractor engagements across six groups: Mentors, Accelerator Mentor, Session Lead, Tutor, Tech and Career Instructor, and Video On-Call. Zero full-time employee roles are posted.
Contractor postings name eligibility across the US, Canada, Europe, MENA, India, and APAC: that qualifier appears in the title of eight of the 16 open roles. Separate postings target Argentina, Japan, and India specifically, and one is listed in San Francisco. Udacity states its mentor network spans 12 countries. Check the individual posting for its terms. These are contractor eligibility zones, not employee hiring locations.
No. Zero of the 16 live postings include a salary or hourly range, or any dollar figure at all. Each one carries the same boilerplate saying that as required by local law, Udacity, an Accenture company, will provide a reasonable range of compensation, without disclosing one up front. For contractor pool roles the postings say Udacity will reach out to qualified candidates with details on project scope, timelines, and compensation as new initiatives arise, so pay is discussed only after the company makes contact.
Four steps, published on the become-a-mentor page. First, application: find the role and apply. Second, assessment: an online technical and interpersonal assessment. Third, interview: technical and interpersonal interviews. Fourth, train: Udacity enrolls accepted applicants into Nanodegree programs and provides personalized expert support before they start mentoring. Applications also ask candidates to confirm they can commit 25 to 30 hours per week on a contract basis.
None on its own site. There is no published health, dental, vision, retirement, parental leave, PTO, stipend, or learning budget information on any Udacity page, and none appears in any of the 16 postings. The /benefits page returns 404. What the mentor page does list are contractor engagement perks: additional income on your own schedule, recognition for your expertise, the chance to shape Udacity content, and access to a global community of other experts. The benefits listed on this profile come from third-party records that all predate the May 2024 Accenture acquisition, none is confirmed by Udacity today, and none applies to the contractor engagements currently open.
Practicing technical experts who want paid part-time teaching work alongside a current job. The postings pitch "the flexibility to work part-time as an external contractor alongside your current commitments," and the tracks map to working specialties: agentic AI, cloud and DevOps, cybersecurity, data, software architecture, product management, and business leader programs. The work is delivery-facing and video-synchronous: one-to-one calls, technical deep-dive sessions, and group Q and A, with follow-up over Slack or video. All 16 openings are contractor or mentor engagements, and no full-time employee roles are posted under Udacity branding.
