2024 Launch Program: Junior Software Engineer Intern

Launch Your Career: As a Launch cohort member, you will skip the “entry-level” “grunt-work,” and start making a real impact on Day 1. As part of the Red Ventures Launch program, you’ll find unparalleled opportunities to make a real impact and advance your career – fast.  

Already know where you want your career to go? Looking to explore some options first? (“All of the above” is a perfectly valid answer.)

Red Ventures offers the unique opportunity to gain valuable experience across a multitude of roles, teams, and even industries. Our business leaders and mentors are hyper-focused on defining personalized career paths for our talent – setting you up to unlock enormous potential within the first few years of your career.

What You’ll Do:

• Software Engineers at Red Ventures steer the growth and development of customer-facing websites, social API integrations, and proprietary digital marketing technologies.
• You’ll collaborate with our award-winning teams to implement, test, and improve our products, while ensuring top quality and consistency across various applications within our platform.
• Typically, RV Interns receive an in-depth onboarding experience and participate in 1-2 large projects over the summer. With guidance from your mentors, you’ll push strategy, build tests, pivot, improve, and iterate until finally presenting results to your business team and RV senior leadership at the end of the summer. 
• Our culture is built on feedback, and our Interns are no different. You’ll receive two structured performance reviews over the summer, where your manager will work with you to identify key strengths, opportunities, and goals. Top-performing interns will be eligible for full-time offers at the end of the summer.

 What We’re Looking For:

• Graduating in Winter 2024 or Spring 2025
• Recent, hands-on experience in software design and backend coding (internships, work experience, or side projects highly preferred)
• Experience developing web-based applications
• Experience with top web languages (Python, Java, Golang, React, JavaScript, Node.js, React.js, C#)
• Solid interpersonal communication skills; comfortable translating between “business-speak” and “tech-speak”
• Strategic mindset, ability to quickly prioritize business needs and conceptualize creative and effective technology solutions 
• Scrappy, tenacious, and self-motivated team player coupled with a competitive spirit, no ego, and a great sense of humor
• The passion and push to be a catalyst in a dynamic, ambiguous, fast-paced, and high-pressure environment
• A strong desire and commitment to get better every day – with a constant thirst to continue learning
• Did we mention a great sense of humor? (yes, it's worth saying twice)

Work Perks:

We offer a world-class employee experience:

• Free lunch meals once a week at our Fort Mill Office!
• Casual dress code – yes, that means jeans!
