There are a couple of CS programs, especially community colleges, where they actively ask for folks with industry experience to mentor students.

There are also boot camp programs that do the same. In particular, I have mentored at Hackbright Academy, and I only have great things to say about the experience. I am pretty sure that I get more out of the experience of mentoring the students than they do :)

PagerDuty | Multiple Roles | San Francisco or Toronto | Full Time, Remote https://www.pagerduty.com/careers

PagerDuty is growing like crazy and we need great engineers to help us build what Incident Management should look like. Every company is becoming more dependent on software, and with that, they are becoming more dependent on the people they need to run their software. We aim to help people build great software by being able to rapidly learn and get better.

We are hiring across the entire stack: Backend, Frontend, Infrastructure, Mobile, Security, etc. Check out our jobs site, if there is a role that you are interested in, feel free to get in touch with me directly or shoot over any questions.

PagerDuty - https://pagerduty.com/jobs - San Francisco, Toronto, Some Remote Positions

We are hiring up and down the entire stack. Backend, Frontend, Ops, Mobile, Security, Data... you name it, we are hiring for it.

We work on problems that do not have textbook solutions. Our traffic spikes involve 5x load in under 10 minutes. Our UX has to work for someone at 3am. Our availability requirements are higher than our customers' requirements.

Feel free to hop over to https://pagerduty.com/jobs and see what you like there. Or feel free to just email me directly if you want to learn more.

We are lucky that our customers care deeply about our availability, so feature work/improving the infrastructure is the same thing most of the time.

As for fostering the culture, part of it is that we perform post-mortems on all outages and measure the customer impact. Many of our problems do not have textbook answers, so the post-mortems become a cave diving exercise to find the answer. We have to build our own answers, and sometimes, like this one, build our own workarounds.

The success of this will depend heavily on the people doing the parsing of applications and matching them to the right company. While I like the idea of lowering the barrier for applying for jobs, I cannot help but think that many students will look at this as another opportunity to focus on quantity of applications they send out. Instead, I would rather that students take some time to research and figure out on their own what they want for an internship, rather than just sending out a bunch of applications/resumes.
