Women in Tech Weekly Issue 9

It’s that day of the week again and I’m very excited to share this week’s news and resources!

Enjoy, you beautiful humans:

Celebrations ??

Sara got a new position in New York!

In her own words:

“I was working as a web developer engineer in France and I applied for a job in New York. I had to do a training in aris for 3 months and now I’m finally starting my new position in New York as a front integrator and publisher operations. I’m so excited for that, at the same time I’m so motivated to work on some personal projects (websites and apps). More celebrations to come… “

Vishakha started an internship in AI!

In her own words:

“My 3rd internship (and 5th tech opportunity) of my college career is a startup-casual environment which will teach me more about teamwork that my corporate internships could not provide.”




“Wdym Womxn in Tech have a 𝘥𝘪𝘴𝘢𝘥𝘷𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘨𝘦?” Well, only 𝟮% of all US Venture Capital (investment $$) went to Female led startups in 2018. 𝟭𝟮.𝟮% went to Mixed (male & female) led startups while 𝟴𝟱.𝟲% went to Male led startups. . When the only mainstream topics Womxn have, are associated with confidence, I thought… hmm, 𝘛𝘦𝘤𝘩 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘢𝘤𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘸𝘰𝘮𝘹𝘯 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘧𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘵. I recently published a YouTube video putting this to the test. (Link in Bio!) It’s a makeup video… 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗿𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝗕𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗸𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗻. . 𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 is Blockchain, 𝘩𝘰𝘸 does Blockchain work, 𝘸𝘩𝘺 is Blockchain used & 𝘩𝘰𝘸 people are innovating the Blockchain to integrate it in society. I casually answer these questions while contouring my nose and patting my face with powder. If we can’t bring the 𝘄𝗼𝗺𝘅𝗻 to the 𝘁𝗲𝗰𝗵, let’s bring the 𝘁𝗲𝗰𝗵 to the 𝘄𝗼𝗺𝘅𝗻. . 📸 @alvintran.photography 🙌🏽 phenomenal photographer JUST LOOK

“I have decided to start a blog to share my experiences as a female software engineering student and do my best to try and build a community of tech females as well as try to empower them.”

Scilence Podcast by Dr Shini Somara – shared by anonymous

She says:

“The Software Engineering episode which will be published this Tuesday BST hits very interesting points about programmers and how the industry is in a complete mess. I would like to share this to hopefully start a debate around it.”
