I think the expectation is that math educators at a math department will be leaders on innovative ways to teach and assess students' progress, will train and mentor TAs, take part in and initiate pilot projects, and help with technology training. (Math and non-math) educators at my institution are excellent, and do all the above. Like everything else, teaching gets better with practice and faculty and TAs could sure benefit from professional advice.
