Teads is organizing a Software Engineering Summer School where you will learn all areas of backend and frontend development and build a robust system from scratch. We will go through the process of planning the architecture of the system and setting up the development environment, followed by creating a service and running it locally. We will then connect the service to a NoSQL database and an external API, add logging and instrument the application with useful metrics. You will choose what functionality your application will have and implement the necessary business logic. You will write the backend part in Java with the help of the Spring Boot framework, which helps you quickly bootstrap production ready applications.

After that, we will move to the frontend part, where you will use Angular to implement the user interface. At the end you will learn how to build and dockerize your application and how to deploy it to a public cloud. The summer school will consist of many useful talks given by our expert engineers, each of which will be followed by a hands-on workshop, where you will put the new knowledge in practice. It’s a great opportunity if you want a better understanding of what it means to be a full stack engineer and how we do it in the industry. 

The whole event will happen on site in our new offices on Dunajska cesta 5 and will be completely FREE of charge (including lunch, coffee, snacks and all activities). But we do expect your full commitment during the one week of the summer school – remember: if you apply, get accepted and don’t show up, you are taking away a seat from someone else who really wanted to attend!

Eager individuals who know how to write code (most of the summer school is very hands-on), and have some knowledge on databases and software development in general. For example:

• Open to students from Bac+3 to Master’s level in Computer Science or related fields.
• Recent graduates from Computer Science or related university courses.
• Professionals in Computer Science jobs who want to learn more about backend and frontend development and working on data-intensive applications.

You will learn a lot about full stack development and what it covers during the summer school but it is preferable that you know at least the basics about databases and REST APIs. Good rule of thumb is that if you ever wrote an application with a simple backend and frontend, if you did any studies at a computer science university programme or work as a software engineer, then you’re good.

A week of interesting and relevant talks on different backend and frontend development topics given by our highly skilled engineers, followed by hands-on workshops where you will implement the presented concepts and end up with a functional application running in production. All this will be accompanied by fun activities and good food.

Registration open: 20. 4. 2026 - 21. 6. 2026
