Introduction
​Join us for an evening of open source AI. During the first hour, we'll start with some hands-on for students about a coding assistant called Bob (although all can join and learn). Students can compete in these challenges:

  • ​July: Challenge 1 | August: Challenge 2 | Total Prize Pool $15\,000 USD September: Grand Winner Announcement | October: Winner Spotlight at TechXchange Atlanta

​At 6pm we'll have refreshments and networking, followed by sessions that describe AI open source activities at the Linux Foundation, the United Nations, and the community at large. There will be plenty of time for Q&A.
​We are thrilled that some of our speakers are also presenting or leading sessions at the United Nations Open Source Week on June 22-26.

​The event will be hosted by Dr Joan DeBello of St John's University and Susan Malaika of IBM & Generative AI Commons. Much appreciation to St John's University for providing the space and for their support.

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about how DevFound's AI matching, resumes, and referrals work.

DevFound's AI Copilot ingests your profile, goals, and live job data to deliver curated matches in seconds. Every match includes a resume variant, suggested referrals, and interview prep so you can act immediately. The more feedback you provide, the sharper the Copilot becomes.

AI-led job searches shrink the hours spent sifting through boards and formatting resumes. DevFound pairs automation with your personal outreach, so you reserve energy for interviews and negotiation. Traditional networking still matters, but AI gives you a lift before you even send a message.

Modern AI roles expect comfort with production-grade code, data fluency, and practical ML tooling. The strongest candidates pair deep technical chops with storytelling—translating model impact to product, GTM, and exec partners. Continuous learning keeps you ahead as stacks evolve.

DevFound rewards active seekers. Keep your profile fresh, respond to match quality prompts, and enable alerts so you never miss a role. The AI prioritizes companies and teams that align with your feedback, accelerating both introductions and interview invites.

High-density tech hubs continue to host the deepest AI talent pools, yet distributed teams are catching up fast. Use DevFound filters to hone in on onsite, hybrid, or fully remote roles and watch openings expand across time zones.

DevFound aggregates thousands of remote AI openings and flags the nuances—core hours, async culture, and visa needs—up front. The Copilot also recommends how to position your distributed work experience so hiring managers know you can thrive on a remote team.
