WWCode is a 501c3 non-profit supporting over 50,000 women in technical careers. We just announced the beta launch of our Job Board.

We have taken a lot of learnings from posting jobs in our weekly newsletter, the CODE Review. Our goal is to create an experience that is catered to the way that our members actually look for jobs, while also eliminating some of the issues that traditionally cause women to avoid applying for a position, even when they are qualified.

This feature is in beta and we welcome feedback.


The average age across our entire community is 30, but people of all age are welcome. We've had people from kids and teens to people with more than 30 years of experience join.


Hey @Alaina from Women Who Code here. We are thrilled to be joining the YC community and I'm happy to answer questions.


> Women Who Code is an international 501c3 non-profit organization that works to empower career-aged women to excel in their technology careers.

Is there any relationship with the Girls Who Code organization? Because of the similarity of names it sounds as if it's a similar concept targeted at an older female audience.


Great question.

We focus on making sure our members stay in their engineering careers and excel in them!

Girls Who Code focuses on getting high school girls interested in STEM.

Our members often mentor Girls Who Code members.
