1.About BridgeAI Ireland

BridgeAI Ireland is a Dublin-based AI training institute on a mission to bridge young Irish talent into well-paid software and AI careers. We deliver hands-on, employer-aligned programmes — from machine-learning foundations to LLM engineering, RAG systems and Agentic AI — combining industry-grade curriculum with structured career support designed to connect learners with Irish tech employers.

We launch our first cohort in September 2026. We are small, fast, founder-led, and looking for the next set of people who want to build the institute alongside us.

2.The role

You will be the in-classroom and in-cohort face of BridgeAI Ireland for our students. Working alongside our international AI content partner, you will deliver our AI-for-Business and AI-for-Engineering modules to the first cohorts, with a clear path to owning more of the curriculum over time.

On joining, you will enter our train-the-trainer programme with our content partner — so you do not need to walk in already an AI expert. We will invest in coaching you up. What we do need is someone with strong technical foundations, brilliant teaching instincts, and a deep familiarity with the Irish learner.

5.Position filled

This role has been filled and we are not accepting further applications. If delivering AI training in Ireland interests you, the Contract Trainer (Trainer Pool) and Graduate Teaching Assistant roles are open — or register your interest on the careers page and we will let you know when new trainer roles open.

Eligibility to Work in Ireland

All BridgeAI Ireland roles require a current legal right to work in Ireland. This includes Irish and UK citizens (under the Common Travel Area), citizens of EU/EEA member states and Switzerland, and non-EEA nationals who already hold an Irish immigration permission that allows them to take up this employment (for example, Stamp 1G or Stamp 4). BridgeAI Ireland is not in a position to sponsor employment permits or visa applications for this role, and an application does not create any entitlement to sponsorship.

Please confirm in your application that you hold a current right to work in Ireland. We will ask for documentary evidence before any interview or offer stage, as we are required to verify eligibility under the Employment Permits Acts 2003 to 2024. This requirement is applied equally to every applicant and operates alongside — not instead of — our equal opportunities commitments below.

Equal Opportunities

BridgeAI Ireland is an equal opportunities employer. We comply with the Employment Equality Acts 1998–2015 and assess applications on skill, learning posture, and fit with the role — not on gender, civil status, family status, sexual orientation, religion, age, disability, race, or membership of the Traveller community.

Our mission is to bridge young Irish talent into well-paid software and AI careers. We are particularly keen to hear from candidates who have taken non-traditional routes into tech: Further Education / PLC, apprenticeships, Institutes of Technology and Technological Universities, conversion programmes, returners-to-work, mature students, candidates from outside Dublin, and self-taught practitioners.

If you require any reasonable accommodation during the application or interview process, please email hello@bridgeaiireland.ie and we will respond confidentially.
