Blue Engine, Tennessee (or within commuting distance in a surronding state)
As Blue Engine launches its statewide technical assistance partnership with the Tennessee Department of Education, we are seeking experienced Tennessee-based independent consultants to support high-quality implementation of RTI²-A+B across local education agencies (LEAs).
Consultants will work directly with district and school leaders, instructional coaches, interventionists, and educators to strengthen RTI²-A+B systems and inclusive instruction. Depending on the engagement, this may include diagnosing implementation needs, developing support plans, facilitating professional learning, coaching educators and leaders, and supporting implementation and continuous improvement.
This is a 1099 independent contractor opportunity, not a full-time position. The amount, timing, and duration of work will vary based on project and partner needs. Each engagement will be established through a project-specific scope of work defining services, deliverables, timeline, compensation, and travel expectations.
Consultants selected through this opportunity will also become part of Blue Engine’s broader Independent Consultant Network and may be considered for other project-based opportunities aligned with their expertise and availability.
Type of Opportunity: Independent Contractor (1099) Location: Tennessee, with regular in-person work and travel within an assigned region and potentially across the state Engagement Period: Project-based opportunities throughout FY27 Openings: Approximately 10 consultants anticipated Compensation: Generally $50–$75/hour; $300–$450/half day; $600–$900/full day; project-based fees for some engagements Applications: Reviewed on a rolling basis
Across our partnerships, we prioritize high-quality instructional materials, inclusive instructional practices, educator collaboration, and the systems and conditions required for strong implementation.
Blue Engine is particularly interested in consultants with expertise in one or more of the following areas:
Applicants do not need expertise in every area. We will consider consultants for opportunities aligned with their experience, strengths, location, and availability.
We may contact consultants when an opportunity aligns with their expertise, location, and availability.
Consultants are responsible for executing agreed-upon services and deliverables in alignment with the milestones and quality standards established in the scope of work.
Independent consultants are not eligible for Blue Engine employee benefits, paid leave, or retirement benefits.
Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis. Blue Engine may invite applicants to participate in an interview, submit an additional work sample, or complete a brief demonstration aligned to potential assignments.
Joining the consultant network does not guarantee a contract, a specific assignment, a volume of work, or a number of hours. Blue Engine will contact consultants as relevant opportunities become available.
Our Values
We are committed to building a diverse network of consultants whose identities, experiences, and perspectives strengthen our work and our ability to serve varied communities.
Compensation varies based on the engagement type, required expertise, scope, and available project funding. Depending on the work, compensation may be structured as:
Half- and full-day engagement fees are intended to account for the reasonable preparation, delivery, documentation, and follow-up associated with the engagement.
These ranges are general guidance; rates may vary for specific projects based on the nature and complexity of the work and available funding. Final compensation and any eligible travel expenses will be established in the project-specific scope of work.
There’s no such thing as a “typical” learner.
Blue Engine is an education nonprofit focused on ending long-standing patterns of disproportionate student outcomes by shifting the paradigm of “typical teaching.” We partner with schools, districts, and states to strengthen educators’ ability to ensure that all students can access and engage in grade-level learning every day.
