About DevPath AU'25

DevPath AU'25 was born from a simple observation: Australia's tech and game development scene was exploding with potential, yet clear, consolidated guidance for newcomers was hard to find. Founded in 2023 by a group of veteran developers and industry recruiters from Sydney and Melbourne, our project started as a small blog dedicated to demystifying the hiring process. We saw brilliant, passionate individuals struggling to navigate their first steps—from building a portfolio to understanding the nuances of a technical interview. We knew we had to do more. Today, DevPath AU'25 has evolved into the definitive resource hub for anyone looking to build a thriving career in this dynamic industry, specifically tailored for the Australian landscape of 2025 and beyond.

A modern co-working space in Australia with developers at their desks.
