The accelerator in plain English.
If you are trying to figure out whether this is for you, start with the basics: what you build, how the week works, who should apply, and what usually keeps engineers from moving.
Start Your ApplicationHow it works
You spend 10 focused hours a week building projects, improving your search, and practicing the conversations that matter.
Who it is for
Software engineers with real experience who are ready to move toward higher-paying roles where AI fluency is expected.
What gets in the way
Most engineers are not short on tutorials. They are short on a clear plan, useful feedback, and work they can show.
Curriculum
What you work through.
Skill audit and role map
Identify the roles, compensation bands, and company types where your current experience gives you a real angle.
AI project roadmap
Pick projects that feel close to the work you already know and still show you can build with modern AI tools.
Portfolio and resume rebuild
Turn your work into a hosted portfolio, sharper resume bullets, a stronger LinkedIn, and a coherent story about where your career is going.
Job-search rhythm
Build a repeatable job-search workflow that helps you research companies, tailor applications, and move without spending every night manually rewriting the same materials.
Interview practice before it counts
Practice project walkthroughs, system design, live coding, behavioral screens, and compensation conversations before a real interview is on the calendar.
Offer strategy and first-90-days plan
Prepare to compare opportunities, negotiate clearly, and show early value once you step into the new role.
Weekly cadence
10 focused hours.
- One weekly coaching call or review cycle
- One AI feature, project milestone, or portfolio improvement
- Targeted applications and company research
- Interview practice and follow-up review
Admissions note
Not every applicant needs the same level of support.
Some engineers need weekly guidance and accountability. Others need deeper private support around project direction, interview reps, or implementation. Those options are discussed only after Rodney understands the applicant's situation.
