Engineering Intern

Want to help everyday Americans invest and build wealth? Financial inequality is increasing, and too many people are getting left behind. At Stash, we’re passionate about democratizing wealth creation through education, advice, and products that help customers achieve greater financial freedom. We also believe in working smarter—leveraging AI and emerging technologies to move faster, operate more efficiently, and focus our time on solving meaningful problems for our customers.

As an Engineering Intern, you’ll work alongside experienced engineers, product managers, and designers to build real features that impact our customers. This is not a “shadowing” internship — you’ll contribute to meaningful projects, collaborate across teams, and gain hands-on experience in a fast-paced, mission-driven environment.

What you'll do: 

• Contribute to the development of customer-facing and internal products across web, mobile, and backend systems
• Collaborate with engineers, product managers, and designers to ship high-quality features
• Participate in code reviews, technical discussions, and team ceremonies
• Write clean, maintainable, and scalable code
• Help troubleshoot bugs and improve system performance
• Leverage AI-powered development tools to improve coding efficiency, debugging, testing, and documentation
• Experiment with emerging AI technologies and contribute ideas on how AI can improve both the developer experience and customer experience
• Use AI responsibly to accelerate workflows while maintaining strong engineering fundamentals and code quality standards
• Present your work and learnings to the broader organization at the end of the internship

What we're looking for: 

• Currently pursuing a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field
• Expected graduation date between 2026–2028
• Experience with at least one programming language such as JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Java, or Swift
• Passion for technology, fintech, and building products that help people
• Interest in AI tools and curiosity around how artificial intelligence is shaping the future of software development
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills
• Comfortable working in a flexible hybrid environment with in-office collaboration in NYC

Gold Stars: 

• Experience building personal, academic, or open-source projects
• Familiarity with React, React Native, Node.js, AWS, or modern backend technologies
• Exposure to AI tools such as GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, Cursor, or similar developer productivity platforms
• Interest in personal finance, investing, or financial technology
