• Contribute to curriculum development and enhancement, ensuring modules remain relevant, up-to-date, and aligned with programme objectives and industry needs.
• Collaborate with Programme Managers, relevant faculty across the Software Engineering and Computer Science Programmes, and other internal and external stakeholders as required to ensure alignment with academic standards, quality assurance processes, and programme delivery expectations. 
• Participate in department meetings, assessment boards, and academic governance processes, contributing to student progression and academic decision-making.
• Support student employability and career readiness, including portfolio development, exposure to industry practices, and integration of real-world contexts into teaching.
• Engage in continuous professional development to remain current with emerging technologies, tools, and trends in Software Engineering and Computer Science.
• Contribute to student life and engagement initiatives, including a willingness to mentor and support student-led clubs and activities related to technology, innovation, and Software Engineering.

• Experience in industry within software development or related fields is required.
• Strong subject matter expertise in core Software Engineering and Computer Science.
• Ability to teach across foundational and advanced topics in Software Engineering and Computer Science programmes. 
• Demonstrated ability to deliver practical, hands-on teaching using real-world problems, case studies, and application-based learning approaches. 
• Experience in project-based or experiential learning environments, ideally including supervision of student projects. 
• A strong student-centred mindset, with the ability to engage learners as active participants in their educational experience. 
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts clearly and effectively to diverse learners.

WHO WE ARE:

We think too much marketing isn’t us. It’s mass markets not audiences of one. Homogenous groups to be targeted, not individuals to be inspired. Segments to reach, not people with their own ideas and ambitions. It’s one size fits all and it’s dull.

When it comes to individuals, we’re fierce. We stand up for individuality. We speak up against bland, broad-brush generalizations. We fight for solutions that adapt to the individual’s needs, beliefs, behaviors, and aspirations. And we commit to doing this in every aspect of our work for clients and their consumers.

We actively foster an inclusive workplace where diversity and individual difference are valued and leveraged to achieve the agency’s vision. And most importantly we value every individual’s well-being.

We are Fiercely Individual.

HOW WE DO IT:

At RAPP we are fiercely focused on the individual and how we can create value from every individual’s experience with a brand. We do this across three capability areas: customer centric consulting, creativity that inspires action and customer experience management.

Our data analysts know who that person is. Our strategists understand what they want. And our award-winning Technologists and Creatives know how to get it to them.
