Jobs at Coding it Forward

Launched in 2017, the Civic Digital Fellowship is a first-of-its-kind internship for innovative students to tackle technical challenges in the federal government. The Fellowship partners with federal agencies—including the Census Bureau, Department of Health and Human Services, and the Department of Veterans Affairs—to allow students to use their coding, design, data science, or product management skills to build high-impact projects that serve the American public. Examples of previous Fellows’ work can be found on GitHub: github.com/codingitforward. The Fellowship is fully funded and Fellows receive a package that includes: - A competitive stipend. We’re one of the only government internships that offers students a stipend ($4,000+) for their work. - Apartment-style housing. Live with other Fellows and form lifelong friendships over the course of the summer. - Travel to-and-from Washington, D.C. Whether you’re flying, taking the train, or driving, all domestic travel will be fully covered to and from Washington, D.C. Outside of work, Civic Digital Fellows also have no shortage of professional and personal growth opportunities, including: - One-on-one mentorship. You’ll be paired with a technology professional with similar interests, and they’ll be a resource to help you navigate your career journey and explore the social impact and civic technology fields. - Professional site visits and discussions. Past events have included a career chat with members of the U.S. Digital Service, a behind-the-scenes tour of Mapbox, a meetup in Congress with TechCongress Fellows, and networking happy hours. - Cohort community filled with other social impact technologists. Meet like-minded peers from across the country and bond over movie nights, monument walks, BBQs, bike rides, and more. ?Applications due by 1/05/2018 at 11:59 PST.
