The developer profile is open for everyone. And you’re going to love it.

A few months ago, we launched a private Beta of the developer profile. This was not just any product for us – it was an ideology. An ideology that a developer needed an inclusive identity; That a developer wouldn’t have to prove himself/herself for a basic set of skills at least. With this thought, we put out an initial draft of what we thought a profile that encapsulates the identity of a developer. It looked like this –

Your profile will also be your point of reference for jobs via HackerEarth. Furthermore, we’re working on a lot of communities in the tech ecosystem who will use the developer profile in a seamless way in events and engagement. Stay tuned for more updates.

Now, this is by no means a complete product; there’s a lot of work that will continue into the developer profile in making it more robust and inclusive. There will  But as it stands now, it’s got all the basic elements that we envisioned that the profile should have. The developer profile is open for everyone to use.
