Why we're here

At StackRef, we are a group of deeply technical people (AWS, Azure, and CISSP-certified DevOps engineers), passionate about helping customers optimize and understand their cloud architecture, security, and cost. We also offer a packaged, private hackathon stack and platform SaaS with full installation assistance.

Our hackathon management platform aims to simplify the process of planning, organizing, and running an internal hackathon. Founded in 2022, the company recognized the challenges that businesses face when it comes to hosting hackathons, especially with the rise in remote workers. Many companies struggle with the logistics of organizing such events, including the organization of participants and teams, the management of resources, and the evaluation and scoring of projects.

StackRef was created to provide an innovative and streamlined solution to these challenges. With a team of experienced professionals and cutting-edge technology, the company offers a comprehensive suite of tools and services to make your cloud-based projects more efficient, secure, and cost-effective.

What we do

Think of StackRef's hackathon management platform as an internal "hackathon in a box."

StackRef's platform includes a user-friendly dashboard that allows organizers to easily manage participant registration, project submission, and judging. The platform also provides a range of resources, including AWS sandboxes for teams, automated code security and complexity scoring, and collaboration features to ensure that participants have everything they need to succeed.

StackRef is both an official ("ref" for your formations ("stack" and an enabler for making winning projects an actionable reality.
