If you are a current undergraduate or Master's STEM student looking for an opportunity with a company you can grow with…look no further! We are seeking Summer Interns for our Product Engineering team. We are interested in students who have at least completed their sophomore year of college within computer science, computer engineering, or a related discipline with professional/intern experience. Knowledge of various programming and database/network technologies, with a particular emphasis on Python are strongly preferred.
As an intern with Relay, you will have the opportunity to work with top engineers in the industry on cutting edge technologies including Java, Android, REST APIs, networking, telecommunication, cloud services, and Python. This is a small team with a large variety of responsibilities, so you'll engage in a breadth of topics.
Relay, a Raleigh- based product company, is looking to change the way we communicate. We've designed, built, and launched an entirely new product category -- a simple, rugged, internet-enabled smart-device and all the software that runs it -- that is disrupting the handheld radio industry for B2B enterprise clients and non-desk workers (hospitality, healthcare, education, golf, parks, sports, ...).
This isn't your run-of-the-mill VoIP app; we've achieved proven product-market fit with a user experience that solves real-world customer pain and unlocks new capabilities for them through our robust
API Platform.
Relay is reinventing the way frontline workers communicate, and now you have the opportunity to learn and grow with us. Take the next step in your career and apply!
