Software Engineer Intern

Same is revolutionizing how people interact with technology by making product development accessible to everyone. As a Software Engineer Intern, you'll be at the forefront of building their core product experience, working directly on Same to improve code generation that captures visual design, functionality, and user intent.

The role offers competitive compensation of up to $80 per hour, demonstrating the company's commitment to valuing talent. The position is perfect for ambitious engineers who have previously shipped products and combine technical excellence with design sensibility. You should have strong opinions about developer tools and their improvement potential.

The company culture emphasizes dedication and hard work, expecting 10+ hours per day, 6+ days per week. The interview process is thorough, including a phone screen, technical assessment, and a paid two-week work trial at their SF office, where housing and lunch are provided.

Same was founded in 2023 and has spent two years building tools like Million.js and React Scan that enhance developer capabilities. Their mission is to democratize coding, making it accessible to everyone rather than just an elite few. They're backed by Y Combinator (W24 batch) and based in San Francisco and Shanghai.

The ideal candidate should be passionate about startups, have experience with web programming, and be able to demonstrate strong ownership and autonomy in their work. The technical stack includes Next.js with MySQL, though candidates can use alternative frameworks they're comfortable with during the interview process.

This internship offers a unique opportunity to work on cutting-edge technology that aims to transform how people create and implement their ideas, making the development process more intuitive and accessible to everyone.
