Student event organizer and discount platform for Budapest expats
Erasmus Life Budapest operates a student-focused events and services platform anchored in a discount card program, club partnerships, and curated social experiences. The tech stack reveals a dual-track operation: a full-stack web application (Node.js, MongoDB, Express, React) powering both a commerce layer (price quote creation, CRUD admin) and a media production pipeline (Adobe suite, event photography/videography). The hiring mix is entirely intern-level across engineering, marketing, and design—indicating a volunteer-driven or early-stage scaling model built on lightweight technology rather than operational headcount.
Erasmus Life Budapest is a nonprofit organization based in Budapest that serves international students through event organization and a membership discount card program. Since 2016, they have built partnerships with local venues—clubs, restaurants, gyms, and cafes—to offer cardholders free or discounted access. The organization generates revenue and engagement through large-scale events (club parties up to 2,500 capacity, boat parties, pub crawls, wine tastings) and regional trips to Vienna, Prague, Krakow, and other nearby destinations. Their web platform handles accommodation referrals, card distribution, venue partnerships, ticketing, and daily promotional content.
Node.js, MongoDB, Express, and React for web applications; Figma, Adobe Photoshop, Lightroom, Premiere Pro, and After Effects for design and video; WordPress and PHP for content; project management via Trello and Wrike.
