Internship Overview

As a Software Engineer intern on the Multiply Labs team, you will apply your problem-solving skills in a highly collaborative team to deliver production ready software that will shape the future of personalized medicine and cell therapy systems. 

In this role, you will help build the foundations of a new codebase which spans from the local system, all the way up into the cloud where we manage the data, deployments, and security of our robotic clusters. You will work on a significant portion of the design and implementation of key components of the stack. Working closely with our robotics teams, you will problem solve, influence requirements, test, and iterate.

As a Software Engineer intern, you will be part of a fast-paced, highly technical start-up environment and you may wear multiple hats from time to time, from hands-on work to brainstorming solutions with other teams. You will have the opportunity to work with some of the most advanced cloud tools and architectures for the remote management of real-world robotic fleets.
