12-month Product Builder Graduate Programme

Launch your career with Bolt's 12-month Graduate Programme, specifically designed to develop AI-native Product Builders. This isn't your average graduate role. You'll be embedded in a high-impact team, owning real problems and shipping real solutions—using AI as leverage across the entire product lifecycle. By the end of the programme, you'll be ready to step into a role as a Product Manager, Product Analyst, or Product Designer, backed by hands-on experience in an AI-first environment.

Bootcamp and onboarding

Kick off your journey with a bootcamp week. You'll master our tools, processes, and product development framework while immersing yourself in Bolt's culture alongside your fellow associates.
Graduate programme

AI-first builder

From day one, you'll integrate AI across every stage of the product lifecycle: discovery, prototyping, building, and iteration. What you'll do:
Work with tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and advanced AI coding assistants.
Build and deploy real features and product improvements.
Learn to treat AI as a powerful force multiplier—not a shortcut.
Graduate programme

Deep-dive into a Product Team

Instead of rotating across teams, you'll spend the full 12 months embedded in one product area. Why? Because depth builds mastery. What you'll do:
Work within a small, cross-functional team.
Design, develop, and ship real products.
Take meaningful features from initial idea to final release.
You won't just shadow—you'll contribute.
Graduate programme

This programme is for you if:

You're a recent graduate in Computer Science, Engineering, Design, Business, Economics, Human Behaviour, or a related field.
You're curious and tech-driven, with a passion for solving complex problems.
You thrive in fast-paced, ambiguous environments where you can take initiative.
You enjoy working across disciplines to get the job done.
You're an active AI user, already leveraging tools to build and experiment.
You've built things—whether it's side projects, hackathons, startups, or experimental tools.
We value the demonstrated ability to build and ship over "perfect" credentials.
