Umee (“You-Me”) is a social impact project designed to strengthen human connection and community bonds. 

Our mission is to bridge the gaps in modern social interactions by making it easier for familiar faces to become friends, for newcomers to feel welcome, and for everyone to stay connected through shared interests and activities. As a social impact project, Umee is more than just an app, it's a movement to bring people closer together in a world that often feels disconnected.

We want to provide an unconventional way to join our team of career professionals, students, and enthusiasts who are passionate about creating a platform that inspires human connection. Use this hackathon to prove your skillset, and if you are selected to join the team, you will not be joining as an intern; you will be joining as a team member and major stakeholder who will help us throughout the rollout process.

We are looking for passionate and motivated individuals with the needed skillset to accelerate our launch in Q1 of 2025 and become a crucial member of our team moving forward.

Together, we are building something meaningful, something that has the potential to change the way we connect, communicate, and collaborate.

The Task

Build a secure, low-latency chat app where users can send messages and media instantly, thanks to bi-directional gRPC streaming, an EC2-hosted chat server, and Parquet-based storage for efficient data handling.
