The Code & Study Program is a 12 month program open to all students of computer science (or similar) from the 4th semester onwards.

To ensure we find the best fit for your skillset, the program offers three levels which are designed for every experience level. During your time in the program, you will learn the key skills you need to advance and gain more experience.

All levels include

-Mentoring and study plans
-The opportunity to try out new technologies

Starter Level
This level is best suited to those getting started with development. At this stage, we expect you to have a basic knowledge of one programming language (Swift, Go, Ruby or similar) and to have built simple UIs. You will be supervised closely by our senior developers and will contribute improvements and fixes to our existing products.

Intermediate Level
Intermediate level applicants will have already had some experience building a product (e.g. an App Store app, production website or a similar project). At this level, you are able to work on complex apps with several views and also have some experience with web-backend development. You will be working semi-independently on more complex improvements, as well as developing new features for our products.

Associate Level
Associate-level applicants should have already worked on shipping an app and should also be fully competent in building new features. Ideally, you will also have a good amount of server and client experience to bring on board.
