“I mentored a team in the bootcamp for several months. I was impressed by their work ethics, motivation and knowledge. They were very eager to learn and make progress. I am highly confident that any organization that will hire them will understand very quickly it was a great decision. Lior - HPC Group Manager at NextSilicon.”

“I had the honor to mentor the Infrastructure team in the Bootcamp for few months, I met with the team on weekly basis and had deep dive discussion with each of them about the architecture and code she was assigned to. The team demonstrated strong understanding of the material, teamwork and dedication, I am confident in their future success and contribution to the software world.”

“I mentored the onnx runtime team in the Mobileye bootcamp for two months. During that time, I was impressed by their problem‑solving capabilities. They showed strong coding skills, quickly learned to navigate a large and complex codebase, and successfully delivered the required fixes. I’m confident they’ll perform exceptionally well as software developers.”

“I mentored the Moptimizer team in the Mobileye bootcamp for two months. The team worked with high dedication and collaboration. Throughout the project the team showed deep understanding and excellent learning of new and advanced programing techniques. The project outcome was very impressive and proven the high level of team. I'm sure their skills and knowledge will contribute much to any company they will work for, and I'm confident in their future success.”

“I mentored the Documents team in the Kaltura bootcamp for two months. All four students astounded me with their diligence, enthusiasm, curiosity, determination and dedication. Their questions on the weekly meetings showed me that they are not here only to meet the requirements and receive the certificate, rather they really want to understand the "secrets" of software development, the meaning of every step they do. The project itself is very sterile and simple, but the questions were aimed to better understand and prepare for real-life work, on a bigger scale. I was very impressed with their attitude. Even with the simple requirements of the projects, they were all locked in to have the best understanding and knowledge of all aspects of software development, from architecture and design and to testing, deployment and integration. I'm confident that with this strong, highly motivated personalities, all four will succeed in whatever task they will handle.”

“I mentored the Fruit team during the two-month Vast bootcamp and was very pleased with their progress. It was also a great experience collaborating with the KamaTech team to support the group's development throughout the program. From the start, the Fruit team took real ownership of their project and handled technical challenges with a very mature attitude. I was particularly impressed by how they balanced their workload while staying focused on learning new skills. They are practical problem-solvers who communicate well and work together effectively as a group. I am confident they have the right mindset to succeed in a professional environment and will be a great addition to any team. Best regards Eugene”

“I mentored the 2025 SpeedyCam team during the Mobileye bootcamp for two months. I was impressed by their strong technical knowledge, dedication, and commitment to excellence. The team consistently demonstrated professional standards, effective teamwork, and a strong drive for success. I am confident they will successfully transition from academia into industry and become valuable contributors to any professional engineering team they join.”

“Over the course of two months I mentored the Entity team in the Kaltura bootcamp. I met a group of talented and eager to learn students, who managed to build up an impressive project from scratch, tackle complicated challenges, and creatively expand their product. They did an amazing job.”

“I had an opportunity to mentor one of the groups in a bootcamp Pliops hosted. Over the course of a few months, the students led a real project we wanted to promote in the company, in which we implemented a new type of KV-Cache connector in vLLM, a leading open-source LLM inference engine. The students had no specific background in the relevant technologies (such as LLM internals and the relevant hardware), but they showed a great capacity to quickly ramp up on the details, and to design and execute the core changes we set out to implement. My goal was to let the students work independently and only guide them in the right direction. They worked as a team, defining and executing all aspects of the project—learning the codebase and technologies, identifying the relevant changes, defining implementation iterations, implementing the new capabilities, profiling and improving performance, and finally preparing for the project presentation. As we employ quite a few ExtraTech alumni in the company, I expected high standards—and indeed, the students demonstrated a remarkable ability to operate as an independent team, absorb a lot of new information, and execute a complex project on a short timeline. I’m confident the students will be valuable members of any software team.”
