Atsign Fellowship of Summer 2025

Work With the Atsign Team This Summer! Applications Close May 9th.

About Atsign

Atsign is a team of diverse, distributed, and dedicated people. Our open-source technology provides the building blocks for Networking 2.0, where everything is addressable, there is clear data ownership and control, contextual responses are easy, and everything is inherently private and cryptographically secure. There are several products already using our technology, including NoPorts, atmospherePro, atKrypto, and CareNET-360.

We operate differently from many companies as a self-directed, flat organization. You’ll find yourself leading projects and working with topics you’re passionate about. There is no hierarchical structure (no managers, bosses, etc.) in our flat organization. We are seeking strong, self-starters who have the motivation to trailblaze. 

Fellowship Program

During your fellowship, you will complete a project within 1 month with one-on-one mentoring from an experienced engineer. The project will be your choice, but must use Atsign’s atPlatform. We have SDKs written in C, Python, Java, and Dart.

Project ideas include, but are not limited to: 

  • Privacy-focused applications
  • AI security applications
  • Secure IoT demos
  • And more!

We encourage you to propose project ideas you are passionate about.
