Navy veteran turned software engineer teaching military members how to transition to tech careers. Two paths: (1) Learn web development and land freelance clients in 4-6 weeks, or (2) Build a portfolio and get hired at tech companies. No CS degree. No bootcamp. Just proven systems.
Join 200+ military members and veterans who chose proof over applications
Building mission-critical systems for companies like
Most transitioning service members, veterans, and career-changers learn to "apply harder" — but can't turn skills into income or interviews.
Companies and clients don't hire the best "students." They hire visible problem-solvers with proof.
Skills don't get you hired — visible wins do. Ship tiny deliverables weekly and use them as leverage for conversations → interviews → clients.
Strategic, targeted outreach beats mass applications. Build a pipeline of qualified conversations that convert to interviews + paid engagements.
Small weekly actions beat cramming. Operate on a 5-mission weekly cadence that compounds into real-world opportunities — even with limited time.
0–12 months from transition
Ready to leverage discipline in tech
Seeking freedom + remote work
Wanting faster proof + guidance
If you want income, independence, or mobility through tech — this is for you.
Both paths use the same vehicle — The Freedom Path™ — but with different execution plans.
Break into tech → Get interviews → Land remote work
Land your first paid client → Build recurring revenue

⚓ Military Then Code — Where Discipline Becomes Digital Power
No. The Freedom Path is designed for beginners and self-taught developers. We'll guide you through building your first projects while simultaneously building your visibility and pipeline.
We recommend 10–15 hours per week. The system is built around a 5-mission weekly cadence that works even with limited time. Quality execution beats quantity of hours.
Job Track focuses on landing employment (remote work, interviews, salary negotiation). Client Track focuses on freelancing (landing clients, building retainers, recurring revenue). Both use the same core system with track-specific execution plans.
Most students book their first conversation or interview within 4–6 weeks. First client or job offer typically comes within 8–12 weeks. Results depend on your execution and time commitment.
No. While we specialize in military transition, the Freedom Path works for any career-changer, self-taught developer, or professional seeking tech opportunities through proof and visibility.
Perfect timing. The best time to start building proof is 6–12 months before transition. You'll hit the civilian market with momentum, proof, and conversations already in progress.
Investment varies based on which program (Core or Accelerator) best fits your goals and timeline. Book a strategy call and we'll discuss pricing, payment options, and help you choose the right path. No pressure—just clarity.
Core is self-paced with group support (weekly sessions, community access, templates). Accelerator adds intensive 1:1 coaching (bi-weekly calls, personalized strategy, portfolio audits, priority support). We'll help you choose based on your timeline, commitment level, and goals.
