About the role
This is a 3-month engagement at 20+ hours a week (3+ days, onsite in Cardiff).
There is plenty of opportunity to stay on afterwards as this role transitions into a routine.




This is the person who sets the standard for maker education at Makerverse.
You'll build out our catalogue of experiences, deliver them brilliantly, and — as we scale — train the people who deliver them after you.
You'll also work closely with the founders on business development, helping turn strong education into a growing business.
It's a hands-on, build-it-with-us role for someone who feels completely at home in the maker scene and wants the room to run with it.
What you'll do
Build the experiences
Design and develop around ***** structured maker experiences across in-studio and virtual delivery, from beginner to advanced
Turn industrial and maker skills — 3D printing, laser cutting (CO2 and fibre), electronics, prototyping — into clear, repeatable, outcome-driven sessions
Create the supporting materials, guides, and lesson structure that make every session land the same way, every time
Teach and train the trainers
Deliver experiences yourself to small groups of beginners, enthusiasts, and industry professionals
Build our train-the-trainer approach so new instructors can deliver to a consistent, high standard as the team grows
Keep sessions safe, structured, and genuinely capability-building
Help us grow
Work with the founders on business development — partnerships, industry and professional programs, and new opportunities
Feed into how we package, price,



and position experiences
Help lay the groundwork for launching in new cities
About you
You live and breathe making.
You're comfortable and confident across a range of maker and industrial technologies, and you love helping other people get their hands dirty and succeed.
Essential
Strong hands-on capability across maker/industrial technologies (e.g. 3D printing, laser cutting, electronics, prototyping, digital fabrication)
Real experience teaching, training, facilitating, or instructing — and you're good at it
The ability to design a session or program from scratch, not just deliver someone else's
Clear communicator who can meet a nervous beginner and a seasoned professional in the same day
Organised and structured — you plan the work and the work has a plan
Comfortable operating in an early-stage, build-it-as-we-go environment
Nice to have
Curriculum, instructional design, or VET/training experience
A track record of train-the-trainer or leading other instructors
Exposure to business development, partnerships, or commercial program design
Relevant tickets, tickets, certifications, or trade/industry background
An existing footprint in the Australian maker or STEM community
Why Makerverse
A foundational role with real ownership — you'll shape how a growing company teaches
Genuine room to grow as we expand across Australia
The backing of Core Electronics and access to leading tools, brands, and platforms
A purpose-built studio and small, deliberately capped groups — teaching the way it should be done
A team that loves this stuff as much as you do
