Software Development Internship

Come join Atlantas human-centered, software company. Our team consists of software engineers, people who design for screens, and others who support the thoughtful execution of the former. In addition to caring deeply about quality work, we seek to change how the tech industry trains and empowers the next generation of software engineers.

Our internship is a 3 month experience. We help early stage professionals overcome the experience dilemma via real work experience. Whether you transition up to an apprentice or end up moving onto another gig, it's a great opportunity to gain tech experience. This position was created in response to continual requests to "Give me a chance. I'll work for free but I need the experience." Following a successful completion of the internship, there will be a paid opening on the team OR our team will make intros to other potential employers.

This is an unpaid, 3 month experience. We understand this excludes some individuals from the role or limits them to our paid positions, but it also allows us to offer the chance to those we otherwise couldn't.
