Blacksmith Experience

You can't get hired without experience.
So we built the experience. An AI-native apprenticeship.... Get Early Access!

[Blacksmith Experience @blacksmith_exp]

Meet our co-founder, Tobi.

He is a senior software engineer who observed a gap in the industry and decided to build a bridge to close it.

If you're looking for experience and what it actually feels like to work in an engineering team, watch this.

As we prep for launch, we are looking to partner with exactly 3 bootcamps to pilot this with a cohort.

We handle the tech and the AI team. You bring the students. Zero cost to you.

Run a bootcamp? Send us a DM to claim a spot. 🔨

Bootcamp founders: your students can code, but they aren't getting hired because they lack "team experience."

Our co-founder Samuel just broke down how Blacksmith Experience is fixing this broken pipeline. 🧵👇

[Blacksmith Experience @blacksmith_exp]

We built an AI-powered apprenticeship that puts juniors in a real engineering environment.

They run sprints, survive strict code reviews, and build a verified GitHub track record. Real proof of work, not just another completion certificate.

[Blacksmith Experience @blacksmith_exp]

It’s time to break the loop.

Stop applying for a month. Give us 4 to 6 weeks inside Blacksmithexp to run real sprints, survive brutal PR reviews from AI seniors, and build a track record that forces companies to take you seriously.

The tech job market doesn't care about your origin story.

Whether you have a CS degree, a bootcamp certificate, or you are completely self-taught, you are all getting the exact same automated rejection email: "Not enough experience." 🧵👇

[Blacksmith Experience @blacksmith_exp]

The issue isn't your syntax. It's your footprint.

A GitHub full of solo projects and unreviewed code screams "risk" to a hiring manager. They want team players, but no one is willing to let you on the field to practice.

We are officially under investigation. 🚨

Our crime? Giving junior devs a team of 11 AI engineers to run real sprints with, so they actually get hired instead of just collecting certificates.

If bridging the experience gap is a controversy, we plead guilty.

Doors open Aug 1.

[Blacksmith Experience @blacksmith_exp]

That is exactly why we built Blacksmith Experience. We give you a full AI-native engineering team so you can actually practice the skills that matter before your first interview.

Experience the difference.

Knowing how to write good code used to be enough. Not anymore.

Tobi drops some real talk today: to be an expert engineer now, you have to know how to work alongside AI.

And you can't learn that from a tutorial. You only learn it through reps.

Since the industry won't give you a team to learn from, we built you one.

Blacksmith is an AI engineering team that runs your sprints and reviews your PRs so you can build these habits before your first job.

We've read through roughly 100 junior pull requests recently.

You don't need to be a coding genius to stand out or look senior—you just need to stop making the same three mistakes.

[Blacksmith Experience @blacksmith_exp]

3. You get defensive in the comments. A strict code review isn’t an attack, it’s free mentorship.

The frustrating part? None of this is a lack of talent. It’s just a lack of reps on a real team, which is exactly what entry-level devs are blocked from getting right now.

Almost no one learns the boring backend tools that actually get you hired.

Here are 7 tools that separate "I built a to-do app" from "I can hold a backend role."
