Technology Intern (Summer) — Tempe, AZ
Guadalupe,
United States
Mint Cannabis is hiring its first cohort of Technology Interns — a paid, mentored, 12-week summer program where early-career computer-science students ship real, reviewed code into the platform thousands of customers use every day. This is not a sandbox course: by the end, you will have merged code to a real branch, deployed it with a mentor's sign-off, and presented a capstone to the team.
What you'll do
Over 12 weeks you'll work through six phases in our actual stack — an Astro / Tailwind website on Cloudflare, an Odoo 19 ERP, the Dutchie point-of-sale integration, a Redis inventory service, and Railway / Kubernetes infrastructure:
- Foundations — dev environment, Git & team workflow, how the web works, the full stack map.
- Frontend — build styled, responsive components in Astro & Tailwind and wire them to live data.
- Backend / Odoo — models, fields and views; multi-company data; reading and writing via XML-RPC.
- Integrations & Data — the Dutchie POS integration, the inventory service, and data pipelines.
- DevOps & Infra — how code reaches production safely on Cloudflare and Railway; logs and monitoring.
- Capstone — take a real feature from spec to shipped, then demo it to the team.
What we're looking for
- Early CS students (sophomore / junior level) comfortable with basic Python or JavaScript.
- Familiar with variables, functions, loops and basic data structures; have used a terminal a little; have heard of Git.
- No prior experience with web frameworks, databases, cloud, or ERP required — we teach all of it.
- Curious, communicative, and coachable. We care more about how you work and learn than how much you already know.
Details
- Term: 12-week summer program (~30–40 hours/week).
- Location: Tempe, Arizona.
- Academic credit: built to align with university internship standards, with mentor supervision and a structured evaluation, so the work can count toward college credit.
- Mentorship: a dedicated engineer mentor, daily stand-ups, and weekly 1:1s.
- Eligibility: must be 21 or older (cannabis-industry requirement).
