🚇 Moscow Transport Hackathon: 4 Million Ruble Fund

The Department of Transport is accepting applications from teams of 3–5 people until September 22 at 23:59 MSK at reg.mt-hackathon.ru. The hackathon will take place from September 25 to October 3, online, with the opening and finals held offline. Each of the four tracks has a prize of 1,000,000 rubles: tram odometry without GNSS, route load forecasting, delay predictor, and simulator for HSR personnel.

🌍 The transport client openly publishes the stack — ROS 2 Humble, CatBoost/PyTorch, Spring Boot — and Moscow Metro EDC data, and strong solutions get a path to the Moscow Transport IT team.

👤 Dates and money verified: application until September 22 at 23:59 MSK, finals on October 3, up to 500,000 rubles for first place in a track. Roles: ROS2 developer, ML engineer, backend, frontend, game designer. Real city data — a portfolio case even without a prize.
