shape them into technical leaders, and place them as full-time distributed team
members with companies that range from Microsoft and IBM to dozens of
high-growth startups. Backed by Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, GV (Google Ventures)
and Spark Capital, Andela is building the next generation of global technology
leaders. Passion, excellence, entrepreneurial spirit, and rejecting the status

We have a vision to train 100,000 world-class developers in
the next 10 years – and we want you to help make it happen
