Software Engineering Intern- Full Stack / Product

Company: Digs

Location: Hybrid (HQ: Vancouver, WA)

Job Type: Internship (Spring 2026)

Duration: 12 weeks 

About Digs

Digs is building the future of collaboration between builders and homeowners. Our platform uses artificial intelligence to organize, surface, and share the information that matters most during a home build—making the entire experience more transparent, connected, and intuitive.

We’re a team of experienced entrepreneurs, operators, and builders who care deeply about craft. We move fast, think long-term, and hold a high bar for what we build. If you’re curious, motivated, and excited about creating meaningful technology from the ground up, you’ll fit right in.

At Digs, you won't be working on throwaway sandbox projects. We expect you to hit the ground running and ship real production code from day one. You will act as a core member of the engineering team, building features end-to-end across our React/Next.js frontend and TypeScript backend while gaining exposure to our emerging AI/ML infrastructure.

Want to know what drives us? Explore our Digs Principles.  

What You'll Do

• Build, test, and ship type-safe REST APIs and React/Next.js frontend features across the full stack.

• Migrate legacy GraphQL queries to modern patterns and implement event-driven workflows using Restate.

• Collaborate closely with Product, Design, and Engineering to translate designs into polished, production-ready features.

• Adopt and help shape our agentic coding practices — our team embraces tools like Cursor, Copilot, and Claude Code to accelerate development.

• Integrate Digs with third-party software platforms in the construction ecosystem, building the connective tissue between our product and the tools our customers already use.

You Might Also 

• Build interactive canvas and document viewing experiences using Fabric.js, including annotation tools and measurement overlays.

• Improve parallelization, execution time, and failure reporting across our CI/CD pipeline.

• Work on real-time multi-user collaboration features.

Who You Are

• You recently completed a degree in Computer Science or a related field (or have equivalent practical experience) and are looking for a runway to transition into a full-time role.

• You are proficient in TypeScript/Node.js, with practical experience in modern React frameworks like Next.js.

• You can design REST APIs, write raw SQL, manage database schemas, and collaborate using standard Git workflows.

• You are comfortable working in a codebase you didn't write, reading existing code to understand patterns before contributing, and can conform to a team's style and best practices.

• You are a highly collaborative, self-motivated communicator who thrives in ambiguity, takes ownership of your work without waiting for instructions, and isn't afraid to say "I don't know yet" while moving fast.

• You are comfortable participating in virtual meetings and in-person collaboration at our Vancouver, WA HQ

Bonus Qualities You Might Have

• Startup experience: proven ability to move fast on a small engineering team.

• Infrastructure chops: AWS, Docker, and CI/CD pipelines.

• Experience with component-driven UI and UI primitive libraries like Radix, design systems or canvas-based rendering (Fabric.js).

• Familiarity with GraphQL, event-driven architectures, or workflow orchestration.

• Experience or interest in the home building, home remodeling, construction, or real estate industries.
