Hello everyone,
The OCaml community has signed up to Outreachy May 2026 (see past posts)!
What is Outreachy?
Outreachy is a paid, remote internship program. Outreachy promotes diversity in open source and open science. Our internships are for people who face under-representation, and discrimination or systemic bias in the technology industry of their country.
The current round is still ongoing with interns making great progress with @tmattio on Raven, with @xvw on YOCaml and with myself on ocaml-tiff.
Important Dates
For this next round, the important dates are as follows (these are always subject to some change):
- Mar 1 - Community sign up deadline
- Mar 14 - Mentor Signup
- Mar 17 to Apr 15 - Contribution period
- May 18 to Aug 17 - Internship period
Our next deadline is for mentors to sign up to the OCaml community with a project idea. Please do consider being an Outreachy mentor. If you have any questions or ideas you can always reach out to me directly. If you need a refresher of past projects, there’s a dedicated page on the OCaml website: OCaml Outreachy Internships. Feel free to discuss ideas on this thread too!
The OCaml community is currently able to financially support Outreachy internships thanks to the generous support of Tarides and Janestreet. This includes being able to fund mentors as well.
Thanks!
