This is a part-time, temporary, non-exempt position based in Naples, Florida. The position may develop into full-time. The Developer is a teacher, curriculum developer, and administrator of a hands-on learning project. Revs Institute Learning is a for-profit venture with Hagerty Garage and Social Car Club located in Delray Beach, Florida.

The Automotive Education Developer is responsible for quickly developing and managing a new for-profit educational initiative offered by Revs Institute Learning.
