Our Engineering team and internship program
This is not your typical engineering internship. During your internship, you'll have opportunities for ownership that will significantly build your confidence as a software engineer. At one of the fastest-growing startups in technology, you'll ship code as early as your first week! You'll receive dedicated 1:1 mentorship, along with challenging technical assignments, novel product feature work, and many opportunities to stretch your technical skills unlike ever before. We’re building both a product and a technology, but doing whatever it takes isn’t always straightforward. This role will help show you how to build the correct systems for scale, while also building something that customers want.
At Persona, we believe in people above all else. We strive to create an inclusive environment where everyone's contributions are valued and their growth is supported. We're honored to be recognized as one of Fortune's Best Medium Workplaces, a testament to our commitment to fostering a world-class team.
