Macro offers a Web3 fellowship for senior web engineers. Students will learn about smart contract security, a new programming language (Solidity), and learn how to write secure smart contracts. Graduates of the fellowship will be able to land a job at a protocol/company in Web3, join Macro's team, or launch their own Web3 project/company with funding from Macro and the general Macro community. Students need to dedicate 20 hours per week to the fellowship, and lectures are given Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 9a-11a PST. Weekly office hours are available, and students will receive mentorship.

Macro is open to experienced Web2 developers. Applicants should have 4+ years of development experience, preferably back end. Students should also be capable of self-learning the Solidity programming language. Interested candidates should apply by emailing links to their online profiles and a paragraph about why they are a good candidate for this bootcamp. 

Macro students will receive assistance with determining where to work based on their interests, will receive direct introductions to CEOs and CTOs of protocols and companies, and will be guided through conducting their own job search. Fellowship students may also be able to secure funding for their Web3 project through the Macro treasury. Fellowship students receive Macro tokens upon graduation so that graduates reep the benefits of the growth of Macro. Students will have tuition payment options, including free tuition for students who accept an offer from a partner company. 

Macro was formerly known as Optilistic Labs.

    Highly recommend it!

    I highly recommend the Macro Fellowship! Before enrolling, I was at Facebook for 8 years. Going into this, (1) I wanted to see if Web3 / smart contract dev was interesting as well as (2) learn enough to be dangerous in the space in a short amount of time—it ended up being a perfect fit.  Specifically, there were three components I wanted to highlight: instructor attention, security-focused, and the various learning styles
