We're an early-stage startup building AI-powered study tools for college students. Looking for a software developer intern to help build real features that ship to users.
This isn't a "watch and learn" internship — you'll write production code, ship features, and work directly with the founder. We're customer-driven: everything we build starts from real student pain points, and we use AI tools like Cursor and Kiro to move fast. Great opportunity to get hands-on startup experience and build something people actually use.
What you'll work on:
- Build frontend UI with React / Next.js / TypeScript
- Develop backend APIs and integrate with OpenAI
- Work with PostgreSQL and cloud deployment (Vercel, Supabase)
- Use AI-assisted development tools (Cursor, Kiro) to accelerate your workflow
- Participate in product decisions and feature planning driven by real user feedback
What we're looking for:
- Comfortable with JavaScript/TypeScript and at least one backend language
- Familiar with React or willing to pick it up quickly
- Self-starter who can figure things out independently
- Comfortable using AI coding tools to move faster
- Bonus: experience with Java/Spring Boot, AI APIs, or mobile development
What you'll get:
- Real startup experience building a product from scratch
- Direct mentorship from the founding team
- Your code ships to real users — not a sandbox project
- Hands-on experience with AI-assisted development workflows
- Flexible schedule, remote-friendly
