About us:

As the organizers of one of the largest student-run hackathons in Southern California, HackSC seeks to inspire and empower the next generation of tech leaders. We are more than an ordinary hackathon organization; we are building a creative, collaborative, and innovative platform where the brightest minds come together to turn their ideas into reality.

Every line of code, every pixel in a design, and every idea can change the world, and we are accomplishing this through our carefully crafted events and experiences focused around technology and innovation. From bringing in speakers such as Reddit CEO Steve Huffman and Patreon founder Sam Yam to building Hibiscus — our all-in-one hackathon management solution — HackSC is a place where anyone from any background can contribute to the future of technology.

The role:

As a Frontend Engineer at HackSC, you’ll be developing interactive user interfaces for Hibiscus, our in-house hackathon management platform! Your role is incredibly collaborative: you’ll work on bringing the UI/UX designs from the talented folk in the Product team to life, and you’ll regularly interface with Backend Engineers on the team to make your app as dynamic as possible.

Who you are:

• You love great products, and have built/engineered or have a burning passion in building one.
• You have experience with front-end frameworks, such as React or Next.js
• You thrive under pressure, and ramp up fast. We ship stuff and make strong progress every week.
• You want to play a part in advancing the wider tech culture at USC through hosting hackathons and other cool events!
• You have a passion in creating a better world with technologies. After all, you’re using technology… to get people to build with technology in our events; how meta could that be?

Our tech stack: Next.js, React, Node.js, Vercel, Supabase, AWS
