The Bridge Between Bootcamps and Business

Graduates ship real products.
Schools prove real outcomes.
We build real businesses.
Real work. Real results.

What majaku Does

Most incubators talk about ideas.

We hire bootcamp graduates to build real products.

Every 3 months, we build, launch, and test a new product — AI tools, mobile apps, web systems, games.

Some become startups.
Some generate revenue.
Some fail.

All teach us something.

We're not here to write pitch decks. We're here to build things that work.

  • Graduates get real experience (not fake projects)
  • Schools get placement success (not unemployed graduates)
  • We launch cool new category-defining products and take them to market

This creates a virtuous cycle where everyone benefits from real, shipped products instead of abstract training.

How It Works

We recruit developers from coding bootcamps worldwide. We deploy them to build real products. We deliver something new every 3 months.

For Bootcamp Partners

Partner with majaku

We hire your graduates for paid, real project sprints.

Graduates get experience

Your students work on real products under professional guidance.

Schools get results

Showcase successful placements and real-world outcomes.

Scale together

As we prove outcomes, we scale to larger cohorts and longer partnerships.

For Schools and Training Programs

majaku provides a practical exit strategy for educational institutions struggling with graduate placement. Coding schools and creative academies often train capable graduates but lack the industry pipeline to transition them into meaningful work.

majaku solves this by offering these institutions a structured employment bridge:

1

Graduates are hired into short-term, real-world projects under professional management.

2

Their work contributes directly to market-ready products rather than fake assignments.

3

The experience provides both portfolio value and job credibility.

4

Schools can showcase genuine post-graduation employment success.

This transforms the typical "graduate-to-job" bottleneck into a dynamic, cyclical talent ecosystem. Students move from education → project-based work → startup culture → independent employment — a continuum of real, creative output rather than abstract training.

School Partnership Program

Partner with majaku to bridge graduates into paid, real project sprints. The institution funds the placements; we deliver results.

How It Works

Program Enrollment (school-funded)

Your institution sponsors a cohort into majaku sprints. We agree on placement numbers and timelines.

Candidate Assessment

I assess your graduates directly to determine readiness, strengths, and team fit.

Paid Sprint Placement

Candidates work 3 months on real products with professional mentorship, with clear deliverables and reporting.

Results & Reporting

We provide portfolio assets, performance summaries, and job-ready references for each participant.

About the Founder

Christopher Shelley is a software engineer, bootcamp teacher, and entrepreneur with 20+ years of experience building products and teaching people how to code.

The triple threat combination:

  • Engineer: Can build products efficiently
  • Teacher: Can mentor effectively without expensive senior devs
  • Entrepreneur: Can validate business models quickly

After teaching at multiple coding bootcamps in Germany and Indonesia, Christopher noticed a pattern: bootcamps produce capable graduates, but there's no bridge to employment. Most graduates struggle to find their first job, not because they lack skills, but because they lack real project experience.

majaku solves this by hiring bootcamp graduates for 3-month product sprints—building real, shipped applications under professional mentorship. Graduates get portfolio-worthy work, schools get placement success, and we get products built.

Based between Berlin and Jakarta, Christopher is building a new model for global talent development—one that's faster, leaner, and more practical than traditional hiring pipelines.
