Summer 2018 Engineering Internship
Getting together with real people in real life makes powerful things happen. Side hustles become careers, ideas become movements, and chance encounters become lifelong connections.
Our Engineering internships are focused on empowering those with unique points of view, experience, and knowledge by including the perspectives of historically underrepresented people in the creation of the future technology of Meetup. By being inclusive, particularly to those who identify as people of color, women, non-binary, LGBTQ+, and/or people with disabilities, together, we’ll help create the future of real community—a future where people embrace their differences and similarities, show up, do things, and actually talk in the world. At Meetup, all are welcome here.
Selected applicants will be offered a paid internship along with the potential to join a smart, dedicated engineering team full-time at the conclusion of the internship.
At Meetup, we:
- Always go for maximum impact on lives.
- Are brave and bold
- Are team players and want to empower those around them
- Want to invent the future and change the company
- Meetup!
As an intern, you could be working on:
- New features for Meetup's millions of active users
- Improving our monitoring, deployment and testing infrastructure
- Making our product and platform a more delightful experience
- Javascript, React, Scala, Kotlin, GraphQL, Docker, SQL, AWS and GCP, and more!
If the above describes you and your passions, apply, we want to hear from you! Cover letter and resume are required for your application. Tell us your story, we want to know who you are!

Eligibility: You are pursuing a bootcamp certification, a Bachelor’s (junior or senior year) or Master’s degree, or have otherwise demonstrated interest in pursuing a career in a STEM related field. Side projects or viewable code on Github or elsewhere a huge plus. This internship runs approximately 12-weeks with flexible start and end dates. Upon successful review and completion of the internship, applicants may also receive a $5,000 grant to contribute to continuing your learning and development.
