Hackyard

The hard part was never the idea. It was finding the people. Steve Jobs had the vision. Wozniak could build it. Together, Apple. Hackyard is the place where builders find each other. Show your work, say what you need, offer what you can. Don’t build alone. Find your people. Build something real. hackyard.org

A co-founder's CV won't tell you if they ship. Five signals that will: a link not a pitch, finished over impressive, cut scope not the date, users before stack, build before you commit. hackyard.org

We don't hire from CVs. We hire from work. Hackyard's winter internship is open. Pick one of 7 tracks, spend 2-4 hours on the task, send us one link. Shortlisted people get a call, then a paid 2-week trial. Deadline: 20 Nov, 11:59 PM IST hackyard.org/hiring
