Software Developer

Alright, let's talk about this program. It's not your typical job posting; it's a one year (or less) training program called Year Up United. Think of it as a launchpad. If you're a young adult looking to break into the tech or business world but don't have a four year degree, this is built for you.

What This Program Is

It's intensive. You'll spend time in the classroom developing skills, and the goal is to get you access to an internship or direct job placement. You won't be doing it alone; you get personalized coaching and mentorship throughout. The program partners with a talent placement firm called YUPRO Placement to connect graduates with opportunities.

If you land an internship through the program, it could be at companies like BNY Mellon, Fidelity, or Bank of America, among other major organizations in the Seattle, WA area.

What You'll Learn & Do

• Take in depth classes in one of several tracks: Application Development (that's software development), Business Operations, Banking, IT Support, Investment Operations, Data Analytics, Project Management, or Network Security & Support.
• Build professional and communication skills from the ground up.
• Learn resume writing, interviewing techniques, and networking.
• Receive ongoing support and guidance aimed at starting your career.

The Logistics & What You Get

• The schedule is Monday through Friday for the full duration of the program.
• During the classroom phase, you receive an educational stipend.
• If you enter the internship phase, that stipend is $525 per week.
• The stats are solid: 72% of graduates are employed or enrolled in further education within four months of finishing.
• For those who go straight into work, the average starting salary is $53,000 a year.

Who Should Apply

This is for highly motivated people who are ready to learn. Here are the basic eligibility requirements:

• A high school graduate or GED recipient.
• Eligible to work in the United States.
• Available Monday through Friday for the whole program.
• You have not obtained a Bachelor's degree yet.

A quick note: When you apply online through our form below, you may need to answer some additional screening questions to confirm eligibility. That's standard for this program.

The Bottom Line

It's a structured path to gain real technical and professional skills without debt. You get training, a stipend during training and any internship, and direct support to find that first career oriented role. If you're looking for that first big break into fields like software development or data analytics, this is a concrete way to get it.
