We are a community of students.
Codebase is a UC Berkeley student organization that builds software projects for high growth tech companies.
ABOUT US
We are a community of developers that empowers students to break into the software industry. We grow together through hands-on technical projects and strive to provide all students with resources to bridge the gap between academic and practical knowledge.

Make new friends
Find a community by going to retreats, dinners, karaoke, day trips, and more. You'll become part of a tight-knit group of friends with diverse interests.
Learn on a project team
You'll hit the ground running by learning new programming skills, receiving mentorship from industry engineers, and contributing to a real product for real users.
Engage with industry professionals
Go on company tours, attend small dinners with industry leaders, and organize workshops for the UC Berkeley community.
Gain leadership experience
Take on new roles and gain invaluable leadership experience by becoming a project manager or a vice president and giving back to our community.
Interact with community
Volunteer together with our partner nonprofit, other student organizations, and the local Berkeley community.
FALL '24 PROJECTS
Fall 2024 projects will be announced soon. In the meantime, take a look at last semester's projects!
Client Projects
Our client teams work with industry partners to build products ranging from full stack web development to machine learning.
Google Labs is Google's home for the latest AI experiments and technology. Codebase developed Sparky, a mobile app for Google's AI Studio, which allows developers to prototype generative AI models. Sparky makes it easier for developers to test multimodal prompts and interact with Google's Gemini API.
Meta builds technologies that help people connect, find communities and grow businesses. Meta's video team wanted to optimize algorithms for scene-change detection, an important step for video analysis. Codebase developed statistics-based algorithms and machine learning models to improve scene-change detection for Meta, doubling the performance.
Meta builds technologies that help people connect, find communities and grow businesses. For our second Meta project, Codebase worked on the Facebook General Matrix Multiplication (FBGEMM) Pytorch library to extend auto-vectorization of matrix multiplication operations for ARM CPUs, enabling Meta's recommendation models to run efficiently on ARM architecture.
Sourcegraph allows developers to rapidly search, write, and understand code by bringing insights from their entire codebase right into the editor. Our team built a machine learning training and evaluation pipeline for Cody, Sourcegraph's AI-powered code autocomplete assistant, by ranking and integrating varied context sources like Issue Tickets and Documentation, as well as evaluating its effects on LLM performance.
Mentored Project
Our mentored team focuses on learning the essentials of software development and simultaneously develops an full-stack web application for a non-profit organization.
Voices for Children is a non-profit dedicated to providing volunteer advocates to children in foster care. The mentored team created a web app for Voices for Children to keep track of their community partnerships and in-kind donations!

Contact us →"Bright smart students eager to solve large-scale real world problems... nothing short of what we expected from Cal Bears! "
Polymorph (acq. Walmart), CEO
"Codebase was an absolute joy and pleasure to work with. We gave the team a lot of responsibility and were impressed with the final product they were able to deliver."
Middesk, CTO
"When [Codebase] released their project to production, we saw hundreds of our users begin benefiting from their work immediately. 10/10 would work with them again."
Postman, Senior Developer Advocate
"Better work than what we’ve sometimes seen from people with years of industry experience. Team quality was strong and there was clear enthusiasm for the work."
Riffyn, CTO
"Codebase gave us the ability to accelerate our R&D efforts. Working with them helped us think through our problems and opportunities more clearly. "
Pantheon Systems, Head of Product
"Codebase allowed us to evaluate experimental technologies with minimal risk. We gave them an idea, and they were able to produce a working POC with minimal support from our engineering group."
PatientPop, Principal Software Architect
"Codebase delivered on all cylinders - from managing the project closely, to developing creative solutions, and then documenting the examples clearly. "
Postman, Senior Developer Advocate
"[Codebase’s] Algorithms Engine is well on its way to be integrated into the distributed rate limiting solution for Atlassian's Cloud Platform."
