Work & Co (work.co) defines and launches the world's most successful digital products and services. With offices in the United States, Brazil and Europe, we've become the go-to partner for IKEA, Lyft, Google, Apple, Epic Games, Mailchimp, Aesop, Etsy, ALDO and many other globally respected companies. As Fast Company noted, our engineering and design teams are “routinely entrusted with creating digital product for companies which rarely approach outside firms.” No time sheets, just fully-dedicated teams. Forrester Research calls our approach “a model to follow.”

Developers at Work & Co work in small, highly collaborative teams to create visionary digital products and experiences that people use everyday. They work closely with designers, product managers, strategists, and QA Analysts to concept, prototype, and execute on a range of products. Join us as we help our clients redefine entire industries.

As a Technology Intern, you will be paired with a member of our development team and work on real Work & Co projects, writing production quality code for our diverse roster of clients. In addition to your day to day work, you will attend a number of workshops with other interns to learn about the digital product space and the contributions of other disciplines at Work & Co. This is a great opportunity to work on engagements alongside company partners as well as the top designers and engineers in the industry. Along the way, you will learn the details of developing products — from prototyping to production — as you partner with innovative clients like Apple, Google, Epic Games, Equinox, and Lyft.

The internship will run from June 3rd to August 23rd.
