A developer workspace with code, a live site and wireframe sketches
Eight career paths

Choose the job you want to grow into.

Every path is built around a real role in tech, with its own mentor, tools and final project. Not sure which one is you? Pick the closest one. You can switch in the first two weeks.

Path 01

Frontend Engineering

You'll go from 'I can follow a tutorial' to 'I can build this from a Figma file'. We care about the details: layouts that don't break on small phones, pages that load fast on a 3G network, and code another developer can pick up.

What you'll learn

  • Semantic HTML, modern CSS and responsive layouts
  • JavaScript and TypeScript you actually understand
  • React and Next.js, the way teams use them
  • Working with APIs, forms and state
  • Accessibility and performance basics

Good fit if: Anyone who likes seeing their work come to life on screen. Complete beginners are welcome.

Path 02

Backend Engineering

Every login, payment and notification runs on something behind the screen. You'll learn to design that something: how data is stored, how services talk to each other, and how to keep it secure when real users show up.

What you'll learn

  • Node.js or Python on the server
  • Designing REST and GraphQL APIs
  • SQL and NoSQL databases
  • Authentication and authorisation
  • Testing, logging and handling errors properly

Good fit if: People who enjoy logic and problem-solving more than pixels. Some programming basics help.

Apply for this path
Hand-drawn mobile wireframes with user-flow sticky notes
You'll finish withA full case study, from research to a tested high-fidelity prototype.
Path 03

Product Design (UI/UX)

Good design starts long before Figma. You'll learn to talk to users, find the real problem, sketch ideas quickly and turn them into interfaces that developers can build and people can use without a manual.

What you'll learn

  • User research and interviewing
  • Wireframing and information architecture
  • Visual design, type and colour
  • Prototyping and usability testing
  • Design systems and developer handoff

You'll finish withA published mobile app with real users, even if the first ten are your friends.
Path 04

Mobile Development

Most people here experience the internet on a phone first. You'll learn to build apps that feel smooth on mid-range Android devices, work with patchy data, and make it all the way to the app stores.

What you'll learn

  • Cross-platform apps with Flutter or React Native
  • Navigation, state and offline storage
  • Working with device features like the camera
  • Push notifications
  • Publishing to Play Store and App Store

You'll finish withA fully automated pipeline that tests, builds and deploys an app to the cloud.
Path 05

Cloud & DevOps

Writing code is half the story. Someone has to get it onto servers, keep it online and make releases boring. You'll learn the tools and habits that let teams ship every day without fear.

What you'll learn

  • Linux and the command line
  • Containers with Docker
  • CI/CD pipelines
  • Cloud basics on Google Cloud and friends
  • Infrastructure as code and monitoring

Path 06

Data & AI

Businesses are sitting on data they don't understand. You'll learn to clean it, question it and explain what it means, then move into machine learning once the foundations are solid.

What you'll learn

  • Python for data work
  • SQL for analysis
  • Cleaning and visualising data
  • Statistics you'll actually use
  • Intro to machine learning models

Cybersecurity

Every new app is a new target. You'll learn how attackers think, how to find weaknesses before they do, and how to help teams build things that are secure from day one.

What you'll learn

  • Networking fundamentals
  • Linux and scripting for security
  • Common web vulnerabilities (OWASP Top 10)
  • Ethical hacking and testing tools
  • Incident response basics
