Learning Facilitator - SEA:ME: Software Engineering in Automotive and Mobility Ecosystems @ 42 PortoABOUT US:Shaken Not Stirred is a company founded in 2019 whose mission is to empower future generations by developing and implementing education projects. Shaken is the entity responsible for promoting, implementing, and managing in Portugal 42 (both in Lisboa and Porto) and TUMO (both in Coimbra and Lisboa), both projects that distinguish themselves for their innovative pedagogical approach and social impact.ABOUT THE PROJECT:The automotive industry has been undergoing massive digital transformation over the past few years, transitioning into a model that relies less on traditional hardware ingenuity and more on software-driven electronics. Trends like automation, shared mobility, connectivity, electrification, and autonomy are increasingly dominating the global vehicle market. The change is happening rapidly with no signs of slowing down, which means that educational institutions are faced with the challenge of producing enough talent to meet this demand for highly specialized digital skills.To respond to this challenge, we are launching a new education program called SEA:ME: Software Engineering in Automotive and Mobility Ecosystems. This open source study program at master-level was developed and is owned by 42 Wolfsburg coding school, with content creation supported by industry partners including VW, Microsoft, RedHat, and others. Starting in Portugal and Korea in 2024, SEA:ME is shared under open source licensing with institutions worldwide for non-profit education of young professionals. And Shaken Not Stirred is among the first institutions to launch it. This is a 1-year advanced master's level curriculum program focused on coding and mobility, training students in areas from in-vehicle circuitry programming to mobility ecosystems that guide and structure how we all move.
