Judge Facilitator

Facilitators pair up with a judge for the weekend and keep their judging running smoothly. No technical experience required.

What you'll do

  • Guide your judge to the right tables and teams
  • Keep judging on schedule and on task
  • Answer questions and handle small logistics so your judge can focus on evaluating projects
  • Be a friendly, reliable presence throughout the event

What you'll get

  • One-on-one time with a working professional, and a real chance to learn about their career path
  • Three training sessions before the event, so you feel confident and prepared
  • Behind-the-scenes experience helping run a hackathon
  • Volunteer credit or hours for your organization or club, if applicable

What we're looking for

  • Someone dependable, punctual, and comfortable talking with new people
  • Availability for the full weekend (February 19–21, 2027) and all 3 training sessions (dates to be confirmed)

You can apply to more than one of judge, mentor and judge facilitator, but not if you’re registered as a hacker. Questions? Email tanishqa@vt.edu, njoshitha@vt.edu, or sindhu25@vt.edu.
