The SpectrumTECH Program is Creating Pathways for Future Technology Leaders

The SpectrumTECH (Training, Experience, and Connections Hub) rotational program provides recent college graduates with an opportunity to gain foundational technical experience, build relationships, and receive mentorship across four business units within Charter’s Software Development and IT organization.  Launched in 2022, the program helps aspiring software developers, data engineers, and other junior technologists transition from an educational environment to the 21^st Century digital workforce. 

Furthering our commitment to foster economic opportunity in the communities we serve, the SpectrumTECH program has formed an exclusive recruiting relationship with the University of Wisconsin at Madison. The first class of six graduates have all transitioned into full-time roles at Charter and now, in its second year, the program has expanded to 14 associates. In our first year in Madison, we added 20 local technology jobs through the SpectrumTECH program.

“The potential, the ideas that they bring, and the excitement I see around this office—it’s a breath of fresh air into the company. I really think that we’re creating a bed of talent that will go on to be future leaders at Charter.” - Bryan Adamson, Vice President, IT Strategy & Planning

SpectrumTECH isn’t an internship—it provides full-time employment and access to Charter’s comprehensive benefits in addition to career development trainings, presentations from Charter leadership, and other opportunities for personal and professional growth. The program will continue to play an important role in attracting young talent, setting them up for successful careers, and charting a course for the next generation of technology leaders at Charter.
