Meet some of the individuals that are changing their lives by joining the AUTM programs. -- Austin Urban Technology Movement (AUTM) bridges the gap between the Black and Hispanic communities and the technology industry through job placement, career development, and networking opportunities.

Join us to experience the “Day in the Life” of a specific occupation in the technology industry. During this time we will explore the responsibilities and activities tied to the position and learn about their impact on the company and the tech industry. Today we shadow Kevin Alvarado, CSPO, CSM, a Senior Product Manager | IoT | at Storable.

Over the past 5 years, we have seen Central Texas increase in population, number of tech businesses, and demand of technical and nontechnical skills to fill positions in the tech industry. Despite the need for new initiatives and policies to leverage these opportunities, we have also seen a widening racial wealth gap, homeless population, and little to no change on diversity numbers across the tech industry. In order to implement generational solutions and breakdown silos, AUTM is building the tech workforce development ecosystem by working with these 5 stakeholders in the community: employers, institutions, organizations, governmental departments, and individual contributors. Join our President and CEO, Michael Ward Jr., to hear how AUTM is increasing diversity in tech and the role you can play to join the AUTM movement.

Join AUTM as we discuss the training options for our cohorts to enter the tech industry. Get a thorough run-down of our CompTIA certification program, the expected outcome, and possible career opportunities upon completion with John Fierro, Memo Espinoza, and Andres Giraldo of Austin Free-Net.
