Internships

Start your career. Ship real work.

Mail Tactic internships are for students and recent graduates who want more than a line on their CV. You'll work on production systems, alongside engineers who care about the craft.

The program

Six months. Real systems. Yours to own.

A structured, paid, full-time internship for students and recent graduates who want to work on problems that matter. Not a showcase. Not busy work. The real thing.

What to expect

Real work, real codebase

No toy projects. You'll contribute to the same codebase as full-time engineers — features, fixes, and improvements that go live.

A mentor, not a manager

Every intern is paired with a senior engineer who owns your growth for the duration. Weekly 1:1s, code review, and direct feedback.

Ship before you leave

You'll own at least one end-to-end feature from scoping to production. Something you can demo, write about, and be proud of.

Where you could work

Interns join one of our core teams based on their background and interests. Placement is decided during the selection process.

Infrastructure & Reliability

The systems that deliver millions of emails without breaking. Multi-region, low-latency, high durability.

Developer Experience

The APIs, SDKs, and documentation that make developers reach for Mail Tactic first.

Product & Design

The interfaces that make complex infrastructure feel simple. Dashboard, analytics, onboarding.

Data & Observability

The pipelines and dashboards that give developers real-time insight into every email event.

How we hire

No black boxes.

We read every application ourselves. No automated filters, no weeks of silence. Here's what to expect.

01

Apply

Send us a brief note: who you are, what you're studying, and which team interests you.

02

Review

We read every application. If there's a fit, you'll hear back within two weeks.

03

Interview

Two conversations — one technical, one on how you think and communicate.

04

Offer

We move quickly. Expect a decision within two weeks of your final interview.

What we look for

01

Curiosity over credentials

We care more about how you think than where you studied. Show us what you've built, broken, or figured out.

02

Comfort with ambiguity

Startups are imperfect by design. We want people who can make progress without perfect information.

03

A bias for shipping

Perfection is the enemy of done. We value people who ship, learn, and iterate — not people who polish indefinitely.
