Life at UiPath

The people at UiPath believe in the transformative power of automation to change how the world works. We’re committed to creating category-leading enterprise software that unleashes that power.

To make that happen, we need people who are curious, self-propelled, generous, and genuine. People who love being part of a fast-moving, fast-thinking growth company. And people who care—about each other, about UiPath, and about our larger purpose.

Could that be you?

UiPath Future Forward Hackathon 2026 - what's it about?

Step into a challenge where curiosity, creativity, and technical skills come together. Your mission: turn an idea into a working solution and see how far you can take it.

You’ll have 24 hours to explore, experiment, build, and put your technical knowledge to the test, with guidance and insights from experienced UiPath mentors along the way.

As for the theme? We’re keeping that a surprise. You’ll discover your challenge when the hackathon begins.
