Looking for internship opportunities in tech
Hey everyone! I’m currently looking for summer internship opportunities in tech and wanted to see if anyone had recommendations or leads. I’m particularly interested in software development roles, ideally at startups or established tech companies. I have experience with Python, JavaScript, and some cloud infrastructure work with AWS. I’m flexible on location (open to remote, relocation, or local) and would be interested in anything that exposes me to real-world development practices. Has anyone done internships that they’d recommend? What was the application process like? Also, any advice on building a portfolio or highlighting projects would be appreciated!

I know someone who works at a really cool fintech startup - they're always looking for interns. I can ask if they have openings! Your experience sounds like a great fit. Want me to send you their contact?
That would be amazing! Yes please send it over - fintech is definitely one of my target areas. Thanks so much!
Strong candidates typically leverage university connections and internship programs first, then pursue direct company outreach. Your AWS experience is competitive. Consider contributing to open-source projects to strengthen your portfolio further.
