At Square, we have a strong, supportive, and empowering community of women engineers and allies. We come together as a group: WomEng. Our group grew from a mailing list to regular, in-person gatherings. Today, WomEng has expanded outside of Square and includes a large network of women engineers.
We had many conversations and meetings to establish our group and come up with our recurring events. So, to help others start or expand a WomEng group in their community, we’re open sourcing a handbook with everything someone needs to get started.
The handbook can be found on GitHub at https://github.com/square/womeng_handbook.
Pull requests are welcome. We encourage you to share your own resources and event ideas. Together, we can continue to grow the WomEng community.
