The intern will join our Architecture and Platform Engineering group, which supports product and engineering teams with standards, guidance, and tools that improve the quality and speed of delivery. This internship is focused on building practical automation and decision-support capabilities that reduce manual work for senior engineers and create reusable assets for the organization. It is a tightly scoped, time-bound role that lets us explore new ideas quickly without adding long-term headcount.
Our team sits at the intersection of technology strategy and hands-on engineering, defining patterns, best practices, and shared services used across multiple teams. The intern will work directly with senior architects and engineers, turning our guidelines and processes into prototypes, utilities, and workflows that can be adopted more broadly. This makes the internship a natural extension of the team’s mission to scale good architecture and engineering practices across the organization.
