we're looking for a full stack engineering intern to start on august 12th, 2024 for 3 months.
you'll be helping us build out our new product: sage -- a place where people who are interested in building things can easily find and be found by like-minded people.
we're trying a new way to select the best people for our fall internship while giving everyone an equal shot. you'll first build something in nights and weekends, we will use this as the primary deciding factor.
few points to consider:
- don't send us your resume. resumes don't tell us much about your skills or help us make good decisions.
- downplay the school you went to. going to a good school is cool, but some of the best engineers we've worked with didn't even go to school.
- it's completely okay if you have no work experience. we don't care if you have had 10 jobs before or 0, we just wanna see some of the cool things you've shipped.
who we're looking for:
- someone who's always tinkering and experimenting with new stuff.
- a knack for working on side projects and shipping real software to users (it's ok even if you have only 2 users).
here's how it will actually work:
first, try out our product: sage.buildspace.so.
it's still pretty early, and a lot of things will be iterated/figured out. but immerse yourself and learn what the product is about.
note: the product is only available for nights & weekends participants, but all the people we have hired have gone through a season before. this is the best place for you to get in front of our team + get noticed.
what is nights and weekends?
nights and weekends is a free six-week program where people from all over the world build their ideas.
anyone can join.
no prerequisites.
we specifically look at these things during nights and weekends to see if you are a good fit for the internship:
- your week over week progress.
- how you think about prioritizing your goals.
- how you think about getting users/iterating your project.
- how you think about design/building in a wholistic way.
- and if what you're building is cool -- we might just go ahead and fund you to work on your own project.
it's also lets you familiarize yourself with sage, how it works, and help you figure out what you could do during your 3 month internship.
p.s. feel free to hit us up if you have any questions :)
