[alumNY News]: Yay Summer!

        June 19, 2026

        Happy June, Happy Pride, Happy Juneteenth 💗 !!!
Help with Gloria’s post grad crisis: What coding projects/languages do you suggest I learn/do (if at all) before I start full time work in August? Ping me @Gloria Zhu. Or if you don’t have an answer, ping me and say hi!
Here’s what alum have been up to:
🗾 Gloria in Japan and Korea
I went to Japan and Korea for a couple of weeks to celebrate graduation/life before full time work. 
I was a mile away from the Korean border and saw North Korea with binoculars at the Dora Observatory (was not allowed to take photos at the observatory unfortunately).

Jobs
Scale AI (NYC, hybrid): Enterprise Team. Technologies: Agent development, mostly Python, infra knowledge is a plus but expect to be full stack (infra to agents to front-end). Comfortable being customer facing and moving very fast. Mostly looking for Senior ICs and above. Please DM Devon (@devon, h’12) for more information.
Apricot: If you know a company that is hiring, you could earn $200 for recommending them to Apricot, a not-for profit which matches companies with displaced tech workers: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/brandon-pampuch_earn-200-dollars-for-helping-the-world[…]m=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAABgCsPMB_GB8ATVdsSDiUi0JSRA3BcMojQE
