UCD Professional Academy is looking for a Technical Curriculum Specialist to join our Product team.
The Professional Academy is an ambitious project which seeks to make a significant contribution to promoting skills-based training to the workforce while upholding UCD values by embedding quality, integrity, and accountability into every aspect of its activity.
UCD Professional Academy offers short, sharp, focused, and impactful courses to all kinds of professionals. Accessible on learner’s terms, courses can be studied on-demand, live online and in the classroom. We partner with corporate clients to deliver the skills and capabilities their organisation’s staff need now and into the future, helping to build a better equipped, and more engaged team.
This new role will focus on developing new courses in the technical space as well as maintaining our existing content, including Full Stack Software Development, Data Analytics, and Python Programming. Working closely with internal stakeholders and Subject Matter Experts (SMEs), you'll manage the end-to-end course development process using agile principles, ensuring every course reflects both strong instructional design and sound technical accuracy. You’ll be the key bridge between the technical subject matter and our delivery standards; confident enough to challenge where necessary and collaborative enough to bring people with you.
What You'll Do
* Maintain a subject-specific portfolio of technical courses, tracking updates, industry changes, and learner feedback
* Manage multiple course development and maintenance projects at any one time, ensuring each delivers a high-quality learning experience
* Support and guide SMEs through the full development process, from initial planning to release
* Review, challenge, and refine course content, quizzes, and assessments for technical accuracy and instructional strength
* Step in to write or edit activities, questions, and supporting resources as needed
* Apply consistent formatting, structure, and editorial quality across materials
* Own the delivery timeline, communication, and stakeholder coordination for assigned projects
What You Bring
* Strong awareness of industry developments in the IT space, regarding topics such as hardware, software development, cyber, and artificial intelligence
* Proven experience managing or facilitating the development of technical training or courseware
* Strong attention to detail, with an editorial eye for consistency and instructional clarity
* Confident communicator—able to provide constructive feedback to SMEs and manage multiple stakeholders
* Familiarity with instructional design for online, video, and blended formats
* Experience using or supporting Moodle-based course design, or similar platforms
* Comfortable using G Suite and/or Microsoft Office (especially PowerPoint); willing to adapt as tools evolve
* Ability to thrive in a busy and productive hybrid environment
* A collaborative, proactive approach with the confidence to take action when something needs fixing
What We Offer
* 10 days paid sick leave per annum
* Monthly staff recognition program
* Attractive performance based bonus
* Professional Development and Training
* Paid Maternity/Paternity/Adoptive leave
* Free access to our collection of online/in person Professional Diplomas
* Company events and social activities as organised by our wellness committee
* Flexible working arrangements with a commitment to facilitating remote working
* 22 days annual leave, plus Good Friday and Christmas closure
* Wellness events and social activities
