Full Stack Engineer Intern

About the Job

We are seeking a university/college student to join Enginectra’s growing technology team as a software development intern to help produce features for our two core web applications. Our apps automate the full lifecycle of mechanical and electrical engineering projects to deliver engineering solutions faster, cheaper and better. As our business has grown and app usage has increased, the backlog of features has grown faster than we can develop them. In this role you’ll work with the lead developer and talented designers to extend the functionality of these applications. As a team we’ll collaborate on development planning and testing while you individually plan and complete specific development tasks. These tasks will involve programming on the back and front ends of the applications.

This is a perfect opportunity for a computer science student to get full stack programming experience in a startup environment. Beyond sharpening your programming skills and knowledge of different stacks, you’ll learn invaluable product management skills for making software that people actually use.
