Build your engineering career with people who get it

SHPE LA connects Hispanic engineers across Los Angeles through career programs, mentorship, and a community that shows up. Start with a 30-minute chat with one of us.

Not sure what your next career step is, or who to ask about it?

We have been there.

SHPE LA has been connecting Hispanic engineers in this city longer than any other SHPE chapter in the country. That is the whole point of us: so you do not have to figure out your career alone.

How to get started

  1. Come to one event

Show up to a Mucho Gusto Social or any program. Meet a few people and see how it feels

2. Tell us what you need

Take 15 minutes with a board member. We ask what you are working towards and where are you stuck.

3. Get to work

We point you to the programs, mentors, and people that match what you told us. You take it from there and continue to give back.
