Building a tech community isn't always about high-level algorithms- sometimes, it’s about roaming a hackathon floor in a dinosaur costume to keep the energy up. 🦖 David Ulloa, an MLH Top 50 hacker from Florida International University, has spent his college career proving that South Florida is a rising hub for tech talent. As the past president of INIT, he helped lead ShellHacks, connecting hundreds of students with career-defining mentorship and internships at companies like Microsoft and Google. David’s impact is personal: he saw how tech changed his own father's life and decided to make that same opportunity accessible to everyone around him. Between organizing year round career prep programs and mastering deep learning with Jax, he’s consistently shown that the best way to move forward is to bring your community with you. Now headed to Google full-time after graduation, David remains a champion for "building in public" and lifting others up. Congratulations on the Top 50, David! Your dedication to South Florida tech is just getting started.

In a world of automated replies and AI-generated reviews, Han Rodríguez found that the most powerful tool for building a community was actually a simple pen and paper. 📝✨ While leading student initiatives at Tecnológico de Monterrey, Han became known for leaving handwritten feedback on resume reviews for freshmen. That small, human gesture helped turn a quiet club forum into a vibrant, inclusive space where everyone felt they belonged. Han’s own story is one of incredible growth: ➡️ The Visionary: He co-founded Guadalahacks, growing it into the largest student-led hackathon in Western México. ➡️ The Global Career: From an MLH Production Engineering Fellowship to internships at Intel and Microsoft, he’s now working full-time in Seattle while pursuing an MSE in AI at the University of Pennsylvania. ➡️ The Mentor: Even from halfway across the continent, he remains a dedicated sponsor and mentor for the next generation of hackers back home. Whether he's debugging Python or helping a student land their first internship, Han leads with a heart for his community. Congratulations on the Top 50, Han! Your journey from a shy student to a global leader is a massive inspiration.

I'm thrilled to announce that DEV (Forem) is joining Major League Hacking, an organization that values communities as much as we do. For those unfamiliar with MLH, they've built something remarkable: a developer programs platform that has reached over a million developers through in-person hackathons, fellowship programs, and community events all over the world. MLH excels at creating spaces where people don't just talk about building, they actually build. They learn new tools by using them, tackle real problems, and grow their skills alongside peers. Joining forces means we’re expanding the way people are introduced to, learn, and excel at building software. DEV has always been about knowledge sharing through articles, discussions, and the collective wisdom of our community. MLH creates intense, hands-on experiences where you experiment with new technologies and build community face-to-face. Together, we're bridging the gap between online and offline. It is extremely rare and special for two organizations to be so value-aligned and complementary. I am so excited to work with fellow founders Mike Swift and 💻 Jonathan Gottfried, alongside Ben Halpern and Peter Frank. Now that we are all together, it genuinely feels like our work is just getting started. To our wonderful community members: thank you. I’m looking forward to bringing back and introducing new initiatives for all of you to enjoy. You can expect product improvements, new programs, and lots of creativity in the coming weeks and months as our minds start to meld on how best to serve the community. ❤️ Read the full announcement here: https://lnkd.in/g_Y7MTvK
