About Hack.diversity
Hack.Diversity is transforming the economy by breaking down barriers and building access for the next generation in tech. We recruit and place early-career professionals from marginalized backgrounds into software engineering, data analysis, and mechanical engineering roles at major companies, and work with those companies to build inclusive and equitable working environments. Founded in 2016 as a project of the New England Venture Capital Association, "Hack" has grown into an independent nonprofit organization and a movement of belonging in the tech workplace. As of 2022, we have connected almost 400 Fellows into jobs at more than 50 employers to date. At Hack, we believe in a world where success is not limited by access, and where the jobs of today and tomorrow create opportunity for ALL.
About You
You are a people-oriented, detail-focused, and passionate team player who genuinely enjoys nurturing partner relationships. You are resilient and have a growth mindset. If you experience one "yes" for every three "no's," you see that as valuable progress and become even more empowered to convert the "no's." You lead with inquiry, approach challenges with curiosity, seek to understand the perspective that differs from your own, and you see mistakes as an opportunity for growth and learning vs. failure. You would describe yourself as having a "can-do" attitude, and you recognize the importance of mutual feedback for growth. You believe that racial equity, diversity and inclusion are essential to success, and are motivated by what you see as a personal ability to drive meaningful systems change despite potential resistance. You recognize and prioritize self-care as a crucial mechanism to enable your continued efforts towards important, life-changing, and mission-driven work.
