About the Opportunity
Flatiron School is offering an apprenticeship opportunity for early-career developers to earn income while learning. Apprentices will enroll in Flatiron’s AI part-time bootcamp and be matched with one of Bletchley Fellowship’s employer partners for a paid apprenticeship throughout the duration of the program.
This is a unique opportunity to develop skills in AI and data science while gaining hands-on industry experience. As an apprentice, you’ll contribute to software products, collaborate with experienced engineers, and build your portfolio with production-ready work. At the same time, you’ll deepen your understanding of data and machine learning to become a more versatile, full-stack software developer.
This is a full-time opportunity, 40 hours/week (20 hours coursework and 20 hours apprentice work) for 14 months. The apprenticeship earnings will more than cover the tuition cost of the bootcamp.
What You'll Do
- Attend and complete the Flatiron School Data Science & AI Bootcamp as part of the apprenticeship
- Contribute to software projects for your host company
- Write clean, maintainable and testable code using modern frameworks and tools
- Collaborate in sprint-based workflows and participate in code reviews
- Support feature development, debugging, documentation, and QA processes
- Build your portfolio of production-level work while growing your technical and collaborative skills
- Receive ongoing mentorship from senior developers and product leaders
What You'll Learn
- How engineering and data science intersect in modern AI products
- Practical agile development workflows in a collaborative environment
- Best practices for writing clean, maintainable, production-quality code
- How to build and ship features with real user needs and product strategy in mind
- How to apply data thinking to software engineering challenges
