Tech Stack
About the role
- Design, build, and ship product features as part of a cross-functional product team (engineering, product, design, QE).
- Collaborate with mentors and teammates to break down ambiguous problems into clear, scoped projects you can execute on during the internship.
- Write clean, maintainable, and well-tested code in one or more of our core languages (e.g., TypeScript, Java, Python), and participate in code reviews where you both give and receive feedback.
- Work across the stack (frontend, backend, or services) depending on team needs and your interests, with guidance from your mentor and manager.
- Instrument and monitor your work in production, using metrics and logs to understand impact and reliability, and help debug issues when they arise.
- Partner with product and design to understand user needs, test hypotheses, and iterate quickly on solutions that create real value for legal, sales, and operations teams.
- Contribute to team culture, documentation, and best practices so future interns and engineers can build on what you’ve shipped.
Requirements
- Currently pursuing a Bachelor’s, Master’s, or equivalent degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field, with an expected graduation date after the internship term.
- Have foundational knowledge in computer science and software engineering, including data structures, algorithms, and basic systems or web concepts (from coursework, projects, or prior experience).
- Comfortable programming in at least one modern language (e.g., JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, Java, or Go) and interested in learning our stack on the job.
- Demonstrated experience through projects, internships, hackathons, or open-source contributions where you shipped something real and iterated based on feedback.
- Strong problem-solving skills and a bias toward action — you break down ambiguous problems, ask thoughtful questions, and move ideas forward collaboratively.
- Clear, kind communicator who enjoys working in cross-functional teams and can explain technical concepts to non-technical partners when needed.
- Excited to learn about contracts, legal workflows, and AI-powered productivity tools, even if you don’t have prior domain experience.
- Embody Ironclad’s values of drive, intent, integrity, and empathy in how you work and collaborate.
