About Us

The Training Center of Central Texas is a nationally emerging trade school pioneering workforce training in utility-scale solar, electrical, and medical technology — with a deep commitment to veterans, hands-on learning, and future-focused instruction. As we grow, we are actively integrating AI-driven solutions, automation tools, and next- gen workflows to improve our operations and upskill students for tomorrow's jobs.

Role Overview

We are seeking a tech-savvy, forward-thinking individual to serve as our Technical Innovation & AI Workflow Associate. In this highly visible role, you’ll work alongside senior leadership to support and modernize the center's internal systems using AI agents, custom automations, and workflow design. This is ideal for an Electrical Engineering or Computer Science student or recent graduate looking to build a portfolio in AI applications, process automation, and technical operations in a real-world, mission-driven environment.

Key Responsibilities

Assist in identifying and deploying AI tools and agents to streamline internal workflows (e.g., admissions, instruction, compliance, student engagement).

Collaborate with directors and instructors to translate manual workflows into automated systems using platforms like Zapier, GPT, and custom-built tools.

Help manage and expand our internal CRM, LMS, and document systems.

Support technology rollouts, including VR, 3D printing, robotics, and drone- based training modules.

Serve as a bridge between the non-technical staff and modern tools—helping others adopt technology confidently.

Contribute to technical documentation, training materials, and process maps.

Qualifications

Pursuing or recently completed a degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related technical field.

Strong familiarity with AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, etc.) and an understanding of prompt engineering.

Comfortable with scripting, APIs, and/or automation platforms (e.g., Zapier, Make.com, Python is a plus).

Interest in education, training, and upskilling the workforce.

A clear communicator who can explain complex systems simply and work well with non-technical staff.

Bonus: Experience with LMSs, CRMs, workflow builders, or working with solar/battery/energy systems.

Why This Role Matters

Our instructors and leadership are passionate and experienced—but not always technically fluent. Your work will enable real-time progress, eliminate bottlenecks, and support a community of veterans and adult learners entering the trades and energy sector. You’ll be at the forefront of our transition toward a technology-first model, helping build the systems that scale nationally and define what trade education can become.
