What You’ll Be Doing

 

There are not a lot of boundaries here, so expect to make a big impact. The code we check in today is running in production around the world within a week — sometimes that day. So we need people that will take pride in the quality of their code and take it personally when there’s a bug that affects our customer experience.

 

If you’re passionate about one or more of the following, this is the place to apply!

  • Front end development

  • Back end development

  • Full stack development

  • Web and mobile development (iOS and Android)

 

What to Expect

  • Exposure; Being a household name gives employees the opportunity to work in startup-like environment and focus on deeply interesting work that you wouldn’t get to do anywhere else. Prepare to make a large scale impact in a short amount of time.

  • Professional Development; Participate in weekly “lunch and learns” with other engineering and business functions, skill building workshops, and networking sessions.

  • Fun; Explore the city through our planned intern social outings, and develop your network while getting to know your peers and Groupon’s leaders.

  • Mentorship; Look forward to one-on-one time with dedicated managers and mentors to facilitate your growth throughout the summer internship experience.

 

Qualifications

  • Currently enrolled in a BS, MS or PhD program in Computer Science, Software Engineering or related field

  • Solid foundational Computer Science skills coupled with a strong desire to learn and grow

  • Must have experience with one or more of the following: Java, Node.js, Javascript, Coffeescript, Rails, Clojure, JRuby, Ruby, Python, HTML, CSS, PHP, Objective-C, Swift

  • Database knowledge (SQL) and open source experience a plus

  • Involvement in technology user groups, conferences and hackathons a plus
