Web3 Software Engineering Intern

Software Engineering Intern

Remote /Engineering /

ETHGlobal is growing into the most valuable developer community in web3. We're a small team and we’re looking for passionate engineers to join us. We work closely with organizations like the Ethereum Foundation, IPFS, Uniswap, Polygon, Hack the North, and more.

We’re building products and protocols for developers to help them learn smart contract development, create new infrastructure, and manage payments at scale.

As the usage of blockchain technology grows, the world is going to need more talented engineers, designers, and product leaders to build the future that blockchain technology is promising. We work with exactly these kinds of people every single day through the products we organize for our community. By focusing on this community, we think we can accelerate the transition to enabling more open, decentralized, and fundamentally ground-breaking systems.

If you’re curious about web3 & crypto you can have a major impact on how fellow developers learn and grow in this industry! You would be a successful candidate if you are self-motivated, have a sense of urgency, like getting things done, and are committed to learning more about engineering and the exciting world of web3.
