Hack Day at AWS Builder Loft

Hack Day at AWS Builder Loft

One clear problem. One shared direction. A full day to build something real.

Join HackerSquad and the [SF] Builders Collective at AWS Builder Loft in San Francisco for a focused, full-day AI Hack Day.

This is a builder-first event designed around deep work, thoughtful experimentation, and steady progress. Instead of juggling a long list of prompts or tracks, everyone will work from one shared challenge. The specific building objective will be revealed at the event, giving the room a common starting point while leaving plenty of space for different technical approaches and creative solutions.

Bring a laptop, your preferred AI tools, and a willingness to turn an idea into a working prototype by the end of the day.

What to Expect

• A focused kickoff and shared challenge brief

• Long blocks of protected build time

• Room to test, iterate, and refine your approach

• Support and feedback from other builders

• Project demos at the end of the day

Who Should Apply

This event is for engineers, founders, designers, product builders, students, and technical operators who enjoy hands-on experimentation and want to spend a day making tangible progress.

You do not need to arrive with a team or a finished idea. You should come ready to build, collaborate, and share what you learned.

Admission is free and approval-based because space at AWS Builder Loft is limited.
