    About Pursuit

    Our mission is to create economic transformation.

    By training low-income adults to launch and advance careers as software engineers, we help our Fellows go from earning $18,000 to over $90,000 starting salary on average, adding an estimated $2M in lifetime earnings.

    Pursuit partners with leading companies like Blackstone, USV, Citi, Peloton, and Uber to employ Fellows in career-defining engineering roles and supports them with on-the-job training to ensure potential translates to performance.

    Since 2013, Pursuit has created ~$1B in total lifetime wage gains, creating lasting economic mobility that spans generations.


    Pursuit's proven solution is built on two interconnected components: training (which includes community development, Core pre-job training, and Commit on-the-job training) and a financial product (known as Bond).

    However, growing training alone will not meet the magnitude of need nor solve new societal challenges ahead.

    The typical expectation is to expand our training to other cities, but this will not come anywhere close to creating good jobs for millions of low-income Americans.

    Instead, our strategy for scaled impact is to evolve our financial product and create tools for other organizations, jobs, and places.

    We believe that this will not only create good jobs for millions of low-income Americans but will also generate a new trillion-dollar market directly tied to results in the long term.
