Job description
Major League Hacking Streamers are community members who present technical topics at our digital events. They are passionate hackers and community members who love to teach and support peers of all skill levels. They are passionate about developer education and creative in their presentation style.
Becoming a Streamer
Why should I become a Streamer?
As a Streamer, you'll be deeply involved in our dynamic digital events like Global Hack Week, preparing presentations that are both engaging and educational. If you are passionate about Developer Evangelism/DevRel, if you're an aspiring content creator, or if you were always tutoring your classmates on tricky topics, becoming a Streamer might be a great fit.
You must be 18 or over for this position.
Is this a paid position?
Yes. We want to provide an opportunity for any student hacker to fully focus on giving back to the hackathon community without having to worry about how they can afford to do so. We view your work as a Streamer as an alternative to a campus job or becoming a T.A. We pay all Streamers in USD. Our rates are adjusted by purchasing power parity depending on what country you're based in. We use OECD data.
What does the workload look like for a Streamer?
Streamers are expected to produce a minimum of two technical streams (approximately 4 hours of content) per event in which you participate. You will be expected to participate in a minimum of 6 events a year. You will be responsible for the preparation of your streams (including any slides or visual aids) as well as your audio/visual setup.
What experience are you looking for?
You should be passionate about developer education. Strong public speaking and communication skills are required, as are exceptional time management skills. A teaching or content creation background helps, but isn’t a requisite.
What does the application process look like?
The application process starts by applying via the form here. We’ll send you a writing assignment to assess your ability to scope, prepare, and deliver a presentation on stream. Candidates who pass the writing assignment will be invited to an interview in which you'll be asked to present part of your presentation as if you were streaming to an MLH audience.

Prepare your application
Use the description above to assess your fit for Major League Hacking. This checklist is guidance from Resumize, rather than additional requirements from the employer. Imported listings can be shortened or change after collection, so confirm the complete description and current availability before sending an application.
Match requirements to evidence
Identify the responsibilities and skills the employer explicitly names. For each important requirement, choose one example from your work, education, training, or projects. Explain what you did, how you did it, and what changed as a result. Include a measurable outcome when you can support it. If you lack a requirement, describe related experience accurately instead of adding an unfamiliar skill to your resume.
Put the most relevant examples near the top of your resume. Keep job titles, dates, qualifications, and contact details consistent across your application materials. Use the employer’s terminology when it describes your experience accurately; a copied list of keywords does not explain your contribution. A short, specific bullet is easier to review than a paragraph that mixes several unrelated duties.
Check the working arrangement
Confirm the location, schedule, employment type, and any eligibility requirements on the employer’s site. A remote label does not establish worldwide eligibility or flexible hours. If compensation, benefits, equipment, travel, or contract duration are missing from this listing, write down your questions for the recruiter. Do not assume details from another opening at the same company apply to this role.
Review before submitting
Follow the employer’s requested file format and application instructions. Open your exported resume and check that its text is selectable, its sections read in order, and its links work. Proofread names, dates, and contact information. Share confidential work samples only when you have permission, and use an anonymized example when necessary.
Submit through a trusted employer or recruiting destination. If the original listing has disappeared, search the employer’s careers page for the title rather than assuming the vacancy remains open. Save the application date, job reference, and the version of your resume you sent. Those details help you prepare for a later conversation and avoid submitting conflicting information through several job boards.
Review your resume for writing and readability feedback, or browse other openings if this opportunity is unavailable.
