You teach in English from a ready class kit, remotely, and you are paid for each class you teach.\nWhat the work is for\nYPAI Learn runs live classes where people learn to connect AI to the systems they already work with. Your classes take developers from a first local MCP server with one tool to a remote server behind OAuth sign-in that an agent can call, and teach them to check what each tool can read and change.\nThe work\nTeach the live class “Build an MCP server with tools and resources for your own data”, 90 minutes, from the class kit.\nTeach the live class “Secure a remote MCP server with OAuth and connect it to an agent”, 90 minutes, from the class kit.\nShow live how a tool's name, description and input schema shape when and how the model calls it, and how a resource that only supplies data differs from a tool that acts.\nWalk learners through the MCP Inspector: list a server's tools and resources, call one by hand, read the JSON-RPC messages and find out why a call failed.\nHelp learners when a server will not start, a client cannot see it or a token is refused, and show where the server's own logs explain why.\nWhat to expect\nClasses run in English, live online, for developers in many countries. The application also asks in which other languages you could teach the protocol.\nEach class kit holds a minute-by-minute plan, slides, speaker notes, a demo of an MCP server answering calls from an AI client, and a backup recording of that demo.\nYou teach from your own computer, remotely, with a code editor and an MCP client set up for the demo, and a stable connection, a camera and a microphone.\nBefore you teach an MCP class for the first time, you pass the instructor test for that class.\nBefore a teaching assignment starts, you sign an instructor agreement. It covers pay, confidentiality and how class material may be used.\nEach invitation states the class times and the price learners pay, and you see both before you accept.\nWhat you bring\nAn MCP server you built or extended for real work, with code or a write-up you can walk through.\nExperience teaching developers, giving technical talks, writing tutorials or running hands-on workshops.\nPatience with developers who have called an API before but never written a server for an AI client.\nYou need\nHands-on experience building or running MCP servers and connecting them to AI clients in your own work.\nWorking knowledge of APIs, JSON and authentication, such as API keys and OAuth tokens.\nFluent spoken English, the language the classes are taught in.\n18 years or older.\nGood to know\nIf your employment contract asks for approval before you take outside work, get it before you accept an MCP teaching assignment.\nHow often you teach MCP depends on demand for the classes; each invitation gives the expected time commitment.\nApplying costs nothing, and no YPAI Learn course has to be bought or taken first.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3067,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"English","level":"All levels","optional":false}]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Colombia","iso":"CO","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["AI Consulting & Integration","AI Training Data & Annotation"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-12T03:51:32Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":2,"expected_fill_days":31,"reasons":["conf:1","velocity","win:early","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-11-14T05:58:10Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":48000,"is_top_pay":false},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/ypai-ai-instructor-mcp-11","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/ypai-ai-instructor-mcp-11.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-14T17:31:19Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":20314,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-15T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":720613},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=720613"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fypai-ai-instructor-mcp-11"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"free","price":{"credits":0,"usd":0},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fypai-ai-instructor-mcp-11"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fypai-ai-instructor-mcp-11"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/ypai-ai-instructor-mcp-11\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fypai-ai-instructor-mcp-11"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":4135817}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"ypai.ai","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":4135817},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
