Re:Ask HN: Any open-source to contribute and get hired? by bavarianbob on Tuesday February 25, 2025 @11:35AM (#43174053)
I think you're going to scarcely find a company that has a direct open source -> hire pipeline. However, one of the most valuable parts of contributing to open source that I have personally found is forming connections and having those connections referring you to companies. I encourage you to find a company + project combination that you enjoy, find ways to collaborate, and make relationships. Doing that will likely yield huge dividends.
