You’re a brilliant developer or a great UI/UX star, you can execute like mad, and you’re in love with startups. Maybe you’re between gigs, or you've always wanted to go through Techstars… but you just don’t have a team or idea. Dilemma! Until now…
Join us this summer as a Code or Design Associate!
You’ll be compensated $6,000 if you’re selected. It’s basically a chance to get an amazing experience, broaden your network in ways you could never imagine, get exposure to some of the greatest up and coming companies and teams in the country.
