Are you the person who looks at a team of good people and sees the next version of them? Do you believe the smartest way to close a skills gap is not always a job posting, but a learning path for the people already here? Can you design a bootcamp that takes a busy employee from curious to competent while they keep doing their day job, and a learning path they actually finish? If upskilling the people who already work here, building programs that stick, and running the Vertech Learning and Development function sounds like a good Tuesday, come build the learning engine that keeps Vertech moving forward.
