Engineering Intern

Who Are Heidi?

Heidi is building an AI Care Partner that supports clinicians every step of the way, from documentation to delivery of care.

We exist to double healthcare’s capacity while keeping care deeply human. In just 18 months, Heidi has returned more than 18 million hours to clinicians and supported over 73 million patient visits. Today, more than two million patient visits each week are powered by Heidi across 116 countries and 110+ languages.

Founded by clinicians, Heidi brings together clinicians, engineers, designers, scientists, creatives, and mathematicians, all working towards a shared purpose: strengthening the human connection at the heart of healthcare.

Backed by nearly $100 million in total funding, Heidi is expanding across the USA, UK, Canada, and Europe, partnering with major health systems including the NHS, Beth Israel Lahey Health, MaineGeneral, and Monash Health.

We move quickly where it matters and stay grounded in what’s proven—shaping healthcare’s next era. Ready for the challenge?

The Internship Program

Our Software Engineering Internship is a 3 month program designed for passionate and curious students who want to make a tangible impact on the future of healthcare.

This is not a typical internship. You will be embedded directly within our engineering teams, contributing to real products used by clinicians every day.

You’ll gain broad, hands-on experience across our entire technology stack—from frontend and backend services to the infrastructure powering our cutting-edge AI. You’ll be mentored by senior engineers and collaborate closely with product managers and designers to solve complex problems at scale.

What You’ll Do

• Own and ship real features
  Collaborate with your team to design, develop, and ship features across the full stack.

• Champion quality
  Write clean, maintainable, and well-tested code for backend services (Python/Go) and frontend applications (React/TypeScript).

• Collaborate with the team
  Participate in the full product lifecycle—from discovery and design to deployment and operation. Engage in code reviews, giving and receiving constructive feedback.

• Continuously improve
  Build your skills by working on real-world problems and learning from mentors and peers.

What We’re Looking For

• Currently pursuing or recently completed a degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.

• A solid grasp of software engineering fundamentals, including data structures, algorithms, and object-oriented programming.

• Programming experience from studies or personal projects. Familiarity with Python and JavaScript is a bonus.

• A strong desire to learn, a proactive attitude, and a passion for creative problem-solving.

• Excellent communication skills and the ability to work both independently and collaboratively.

• Genuine curiosity about applying technology and AI to real-world healthcare challenges.
