Become a Mentor
Make a meaningful impact through mentorship.
A 6-month mentorship program connecting experienced tech professionals with women at the early stages of their tech careers who are seeking clarity, direction, and confidence to grow.
Support mentees through structured conversations, shared professional experience, and practical career guidance — focused on perspective, decision-making, and real-world insight, not teaching tools or theory.

It’s built around:

Natalia Chojnacka, IT & Data Manager
My involvement in the Women Go Tech program has reinforced my belief that knowledge only gains real value when it is shared. Being a Mentor is one of the most rewarding experiences – I have a genuine impact on others’ development, I see their progress, and I watch them gain confidence in the industry.
Valeria Dikonova, Product Designer at UpCloud
I joined Women Go Tech because I believe mentorship can make the difference between doubt and direction. Having someone to ask, challenge, and support you early on is invaluable, and I wanted to be that person for someone else.
Vitalija Bartusevičiūtė, Senior Consultant – Data Engineer
Mentoring often feels like a solitary experience, just you and your mentee navigating challenges without a broader support system. This program changed that experience completely. It introduced a dynamic, cross-track community where mentors and mentees could connect, share insights, and lift each other up.
