Codaro Coding Challenge II | AI Hackathon | Codaro x GDG Warszawa

🚀 Codaro Coding Challenge II | AI Hackathon | Codaro x GDG Warszawa
We are excited to invite you to the second edition of a unique tech hackathon created in cooperation between Codaro Sp. z o.o. and Google Developers Group (GDG) Warsaw, under the patronage of and hosted by Google for Startups Campus Warsaw!

💡 "Reverse Hackathon" Format with a Pivot
The Codaro Coding Challenge is a one-day hackathon based on a proven and dynamic format:

Pre-event work: Teams build the base of their application at home before the hackathon based on previously announced categories. You arrive with a working MVP product, not just an idea!

Pivot at 16:00 (Twist): Exactly at 16:00, we announce the target audience/niche. Some of the project's initial assumptions cease to be true, and the teams have exactly 3 hours to rebuild the application to meet the new requirements.

Secret Rule: On-site, we will announce an additional, special rule for the event!

Discussion Panels: While the teams are working under time pressure, expert panels from the IT and startup industries will take place on the main stage.

Demo Day & Voting: The day ends with presentations in front of all participants and democratic voting.

🎯 Two Thematic Tracks

Track A – Issue Reporting and Intervention System: Reactive (intake, queuing, assigning contractors, statuses, notifications, field view).

Track B – Resource Reservation and Scheduling: Planning (management of resources and slots, confirmations, cancellations, capacity/occupancy view).

⚡ Dedicated EU GPU Infrastructure & Freedom of Tools

All teams receive free access to Open Source models running on GPUs located in the European Union (code does not leave the secure EU infrastructure).

The use of GPUs is completely optional – you can use any editors and AI assistants (including Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Antigravity, etc.).

👥 Who Are We Looking For?

Developers / Participants (80 spots / 16 teams of 5 people): You register individually (if you have a team, provide the same name; if you don't – we will assign you before the event).

Observers (20 spots): Seats in front of the stage. Listen to the discussion panels and watch up close as 16 teams build AI-driven products.

Marcin Samsonowski, Enterprise Architect | Engineer | Trainer

I’m an architect with a strong technical background and a genuine passion for continuous learning and sharing knowledge. I love working at the intersection of people, processes, and technology - always aiming to find the right balance between quality and effectiveness.

I’m a firm believer in the transformative power of automation and AI, especially in how they can bring clarity, efficiency, and opportunity to complex environments.

Over the years, I’ve worked in variety of roles across diverse industries and company sizes - from early-stage startups to global enterprises. What drives me is connecting strategic perspective with practical execution and helping organizations use technology to achieve real business outcomes. My main focus areas are Enterprise and Solution Architecture, where I take a holistic view to make sure technology truly serves the bigger picture.

In free time mostly passionate about music (singing, playing, dancing) and sports (from martial arts to snowboarding).
