Tasks to be performed by the contractor Our trainees work on exercise projects in groups of approximately 4 people. Their work is peer reviewed and reviewed by coaches. But additionally, we want it to be reviewed by two Senior Software Engineering Trainers. This aims at ensuring highest standards of code quality and best practice adherence. To this end we are looking for 2 Senior Software Engineering Trainers for code reviews (Local Expert Position) who will provide in total: 2.5 hours of code reviews on complex exercise projects per group of approx. 4 trainees every week as well as one-on-one-technical coaching sessions There will be 8 groups of trainees that require this coaching, meaning that we are expecting 40 hours of coaching per week. This will be done for a defined portion of the cohort period, totalling approximately 3 months. The total number of consultant hours is going to be 480 hours Detailed task breakdown: Code reviews: Trainees use GitHub as a version control system and remote repository. When they work on exercise projects they share their code with the trainer through a pull request. Pull requests are either feature-based or they represent the coding progress done up to a certain point in time (e.g. via a dev->main PR at a certain predefined cutoff-date) The trainer then adds detailed comments to individual lines of code in the pull request through GitHubs built-in commenting functionality. Comments relate not only to errors but also to best practices and code quality criteria. Comments need to be detailed and make the recommended improvement explicit. Trainees then edit their code and ask for a re-review. This continues until comments have been addressed to the full satisfaction of the trainer in which case the trainer marks the comments as resolved. When all comments have been resolved the trainer merges the pull request. Notifications about pull requests, comments, requests to re-review etc. are triggered through GitHubs built in notification functionalities. Additionally, they can be shared on discord or any other similar communication platform that is used for coordination between the trainer and the trainees. Technical one-on-one coaching: The trainer conducts weekly one-on-one-calls with the trainees to talk through noteworthy issues identified during code reviews and to help with particularly challenging questions faced by the trainees. Trainees prepare questions for these calls about issues they are stuck on and share those questions with the trainer before the call. During the call the trainer provides ideas for how to solve the issue verbally and shares any resource-links in the chat of the call. In some cases, requests for such technical help may also be shared in between calls on discord or any similar communication platform that is used for coordination between the trainer and the trainees.
