About us
The first baby boomers turn 80 this year. Over the next decade, the population most likely to need daily care will grow faster than the buildings, the staff, or the systems available to serve it.
Sage is the care intelligence platform for senior living and skilled nursing. We connect the hardware senior care runs on, including nurse call, fall management, and wander management, with software caregivers actually use. That consistent use is what produces reliable data, and reliable data is what gives operators a true picture of how their communities are running.
Sage is a collaborative team of ambitious, multi-disciplinary entrepreneurs on a mission to reinvent senior care with a modern operating system for caregivers. Millions of people depend on this care getting better, and we move with the urgency that deserves.
About this role
As a Software Engineering Intern at Sage, you'll join a product engineering team as a full member from day one. You'll attend the same standups, contribute to the same roadmap, review the same pull requests, and ship to the same production codebase as the rest of your team.
This internship runs Monday, June 7, 2027 to Friday, August 13, 2027. You can also visit our website for more information about our internship program.
The software you build supports caregivers responding to real residents in real moments of need. Every feature, bug fix, and improvement has the potential to make someone's day easier, and someone's care better.
Throughout the internship, you'll work closely with an experienced engineer who will mentor you, help you grow, and give you meaningful feedback. By the end of the summer, you'll have shipped production software and shared what you built with the broader engineering organization.
What you'll do
- Ship production code as part of a product engineering team, from your first pull request through deployment
- Build user-facing experiences in React and TypeScript used every day by caregivers and senior living communities
- Develop backend services in Java that power care workflows, notifications, and integrations with the systems our customers rely on
- Write tests, participate in code reviews, and iterate on feedback as part of our engineering process
- Partner with product managers, designers, and engineers to scope, build, and deliver meaningful features
- Learn what it takes to build and operate reliable software that people depend on every day
Minimum Qualifications
- Strong programming fundamentals in at least one language, such as TypeScript, JavaScript, Java, or Python, with excitement to learn across the stack
