San Francisco, CA

Job Description

This is Full Time position in San Francisco from September 6-December 20, 2019

Meraki's Intern and Co-op program is an intimate yet powerful group helping to build the newest parts of the Meraki stack. Comprised of Software, Hardware, and Product Management programs, our interns and co-ops have the opportunity to design, develop, manage, and ship features and products that impact customers around the world.

Meraki's intern program is designed to give interns the ability to explore the different avenues of the engineering teams while also enjoying the culture and atmosphere of the office. From lunch and learns and weekly meetups to afternoon socials and networking events, each day provides a new opportunity to learn and meet other Meraki employees.

What we look for in all intern/co-op candidates:

* BA/BS in Computer Science, ECE, EE, ME or STEM related field (in progress)
* Clear and effective communication skills
* Proactive learners who can quickly pick up working in multiple frameworks, languages and environments
* Passionate team players
* Continually able to learn from experience and eager for feedback
* Previous internship or large scale project experience
* Familiarity with the fundamentals of Computer Science (Javascript, CSS, Ruby on Rails, C/C++ or an understanding of databases)

Projects and Work Life:

Meraki interns and co-ops join the team for 12 and 16 week programs, respectively, and are placed directly onto subteams. During the program, interns/co-ops have the opportunity to work on a small starter project, such as integration and implementation of new tools, before spending the majority of the program on a larger project, such as building the infrastructure for a wireless device. Projects are cross functional, which allow insight into new languages and technologies, help encourage professional growth within engineering, and allow a sense of ownership within the team.

Meraki's engineering teams place a high emphasis on mentorship. Each intern and co-op is matched 1:1 with a mentor who provides continual feedback and guidance throughout the duration of the program. Mentors help with introductions to other team members, overviews of tools and processes, and provide a seamless integration into Meraki life.

Examples of previous intern projects:

* Responsible for GTM and launch of a brand new product line

* Lunch and dinner daily
* Customized laptop and desk setups
* Medical, dental, and vision coverage plans
