Do you love technology AND making a difference in young people's lives?

The YMCA of Greater Kansas City is looking for a Teen Tech Coordinator to lead our Teen Tech Center at the Linwood location — a dynamic, youth-driven space where young people explore technology, build real skills, and imagine their futures.

This isn't a desk job. You'll be in the room where it happens — mentoring teens through robotics builds, digital art projects, coding challenges, drone piloting, game design, and more. If you're passionate about tech as a tool for empowerment and you know how to connect with young people, we want to hear from you.

The Teen Tech Coordinator provides young people access to youth-led, project-based safe places where youth can experience technology, work with peers and mentors, and develop the skills needed for future career or college pursuits.

Hiring Range: $17.00-$19.00 per hour

The Teen Tech Coordinator is a grant funded position.

We are hopeful: we believe in you and your potential to become a catalyst in the world. We are nurturing: we support you in your journey to develop your full potential. We are determined: above all else, we are on a relentless quest to make our community stronger beginning with you.

  • Support youth in planning for the future, including pursuing academic and job opportunities that leverage their Teen Tech Center skills and experience.
  • Connect participants to wraparound services, support from the host organization and other local resources as needed.
  • Provide community outreach to recruit a diverse group of young people, and partner with parents, teachers, and community leaders in the program.
  • Recruit, train, and support volunteer mentors, ensuring they work effectively with youth.
  • Provide basic technology and space maintenance, including file management, technology trouble-shooting, and technical support to Teen Tech Center youth and mentors.
  • Provide administrative support for the Teen Tech Center program, including tracking membership, demographic information, and youth attendance.
  • Assist in fundraising and publicity for the Teen Tech Center, communicating the goals, and results to external sources.
  • Partner with other associates to enrich lives through technology in an open and safe environment, with youth-based learning as the cornerstone

Qualifications

  • Proven track record working with youth, in particular young people from under-resourced communities
  • Experience facilitating formal and informal learning environments.
  • Experience with computers and interest in technology as a creative and empowering tool.
  • Potential areas of expertise including: 3D printing, Adobe Creative Cloud, digital art design, robotics (LEGO, VEX, FIRST, or similar platforms), drone piloting and safety, coding, game design and esports fundamentals, digital media, and STEM challenges.
