Base Career helps you apply smarter for this job.
Every Galileo lesson reaches thousands of educators and tens of thousands of children.
That impact starts with a kernel of an idea — a mini golf game with paint-stirrer walls, a secret safe with a pneumatic deadbolt, a rideable rocking pet made from a reinforced cardboard box — that the Curriculum Developer might dream up on a Tuesday afternoon. From there, it becomes a catalyst that shapes what materials get ordered, what instructors say in the classroom, and what kids actually build with their own two hands.
There are intangible impacts too.
For kids: building Galileo projects enables them to pursue their own ideas, solve their own problems, and develop lasting confidence in their ability to create.
For new instructors: using our carefully crafted facilitation guides might help them discover they love teaching, and inspire them to launch a career in education.
For Galileo: the quality of our curriculum is a key driver of our success as a business. Our signature projects attract families to our camps. Instructors return year after year because the curriculum sets them up to succeed. School districts partner with us and renew because our program is unique and delivers on its promise.
The Curriculum Developer sets all of this in motion.

Design — and sometimes deliver — instructor training that builds excitement for Galileo’s programs and prepares facilitators to deliver them with fidelity.
