Think you’ve got the edge?
On August 1st, we’re opening the doors at Fortress Melbourne for our first-ever Easygo Mini Hackathon. Powered by KICK, it’s a one-day event for engineers and developers to do real work on real technical problems.
Think 4-5 hours of focused, high-energy collaboration in teams of 3-5, solving curated technical challenges inspired by real KICK engineering problems.
Who are we looking for?
You. If you're an engineer or developer who lives to build and experiment. If you're someone who likes to solve real problems. If you're down to work in a team at speed. And if you're curious about how we build together here at Easygo and KICK.
What are the challenges?
You’ll choose to work on one of two challenges:
What’s the process?
First, register your interest individually by July 1st and choose your preferred challenge. You’ll find out mid-July if you’ve been selected as one of the 50 participants, based on your skills, experience and team-balance. It’s not first come, first served.
If successful, you’ll be allocated to a team, again based on experience and skills to make sure it’s all fair. You’ll then have the chance to get to know your team before the hackathon, at a team mixer on the 23rd of July.
On the day, you’ll attend in-person from 9-6 and work on your challenge alongside KICK engineers as your mentors.
Live presentations and judging will happen on the day by Easygo and KICK engineering managers Zeb Khan, Jeremy Brown, Juan Carlos Yu and Sami Alakus.
What’s expected of you and your team?
You’ll get all the detailed information on the day.
What are the judges looking for?
What’s in it for you?
Besides food, drinks and post-event celebrations - the chance to be a part of a winning team, and your share of the prize pool. 100k will be split across the 2 challenges, with the winning teams nabbing 50k each. Not bad.
