eXcellerate

Four of the brightest minds from Chile’s leading universities have joined eXcellerate as technology interns.

The interns have joined our rapidly expanding iXcede product development team and will be involved in projects to build advanced data analytics and reporting for mine operations globally. 

The new interns Laura Varela, José Marchant, Piero Cristi, and Francisco Gutierrez are all studying engineering across various fields and have a passion for technology. Laura studies mechanical engineering, while Piero and José major in software engineering alongside our Junior Backend Developer Santino D’Aloy – all at the prestigious Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile (UC). Meanwhile, Francisco studies civil engineering at Universidad del Desarrollo, another renowned private university in Santiago. 

During the recruitment process, all interns excelled in a personality test similar to the DISC assessment

showcasing their exceptional strengths and qualifications as job candidates. As a result, they have been offered positions at eXcellerate in a freelance/contracting capacity, allowing them to continue their studies while gaining valuable professional development, experience and exposure by contributing to the company’s projects.  

With the exceptional talent and potential demonstrated by these interns, Cesar Francisc (Chief Technology Officer at iXcede) anticipates welcoming more trainees to their team in the near future.

eXcellerate is proud to have these talented individuals on board and looks forward to their valuable contributions to the team as our next generation of tech professionals. The company remains dedicated to fostering a culture of innovation and excellence, and these trainees represent a promising addition to their dynamic team.
