#About Ironhack\nIronhack is an education startup that was founded to disrupt the way tech education works! \n\nDoesn’t it seem odd that we’ve been learning the same way since the Industrial Revolution? Virtually all industries are pushing the limits on how to do things faster, better, and more efficiently. Yet, for the most part, people feel stuck on a 4+ year (and usually quite expensive) path that often results in an unfulfilling career path.\n\nWe empower students to create a new path - one that leads to meaningful careers in software development, product design or data analytics in a fraction of the time and cost of traditional education. \n\nOur higher purpose is to transform the education space to be unapologetically outcomes-driven. Whether students are looking to change careers, get a promotion, skip University, or start their own company, we work tirelessly every day to make sure this path is as quick, immersive, and accessible as possible. Hearing these success stories is what gets us out of bed each day, excited to come to work :) \n\nIt’s with this mindset that we’ve become one of the key global players in bridging the digital skills gap, serving both those looking to get into tech, as well as the companies hungry for tech talent. \n\nQuick facts:\n ●  Founded in 2013 by Wharton and Harvard grads\n ●  Operations in Miami, Madrid, Barcelona, Paris, Mexico City, Lisbon, Amsterdam, Sao Paulo and Berlin\n ●  Graduated over 10.000 students \n ●  100+ global team members \n ●  Venture capital backed\n\n#About the gig\n\nHere at Ironhack, we’re growing fast to deliver life-changing educational experiences at scale across the world.
