Role Overview
We’re looking for a Software Engineer Intern to join our paid summer 2026 internship cohort. You will contribute to core product development ranging from frontend interfaces to backend systems, integrations, automation scripts, or new developer experience tooling.
What You’ll Do
- Design, build, and debug software tools and systems using Python, TypeScript, or Rust.
- Use our internal AI-powered developer tools to prototype and enhance engineering workflows.
- Help implement and test key product features like project generation, build automation, and developer-facing APIs.
- Provide structured feedback on usability, bugs, and edge cases—you’re part of the product feedback loop.
- Build demo apps, scripts, or workflows that stress-test our tools and showcase new features.
- Read technical docs, specs, and code to verify model output and ensure reliability (yes, we still read docs).
You might be a good fit if you:
- Have experience building CLI tools, dev scripts, small web or backend apps
- Think hardware is really cool with some hobbyist-level experience programming MCUs
- Have used or contributed to build systems or developer tools (e.g., VS Code extensions, CLIs, GitHub Actions)
Ideal Candidates will:
- Come in with previous work or internship experience shipping to production
- Be hungry to contribute to an ambitious startup
