Our Internships

This is an opportunity to work with our organization external to our other sponsored internships.

Intern at The Palisadoes Foundation​

As an intern, you will work closely with volunteers in your area of interest.

We are especially interested in adding features to our software that makes it:

  1. More intuitive to use
  2. Reliable
  3. Very clearly documented

Funding​

These internships may be paid or volunteer based on our available funds.

  1. We will provide any appropriate documentation you might need to receive funding and school credit from outside sources.
  2. We place an emphasis on providing educational opportunities for interns in which they work closely with our volunteer mentors. Take a look at our past interns.

FAQ​

  • Q: What is the timeline for these internships?

    • A: We prefer internships during the Northern Hemisphere's summer.

      1. For unpaid internships we prefer twelve-week terms where there is flexibility with start and end dates as necessary. This is negotiable.
      2. With paid internships we try to sponsor 350 hours of work at rates similar to those of the Google Summer of Code. This ideal depends on our levels of funding.

      Work during the term can be either full-time (40 hours per week) or part-time (20 hours per week) positions. We will prefer candidates that are able to work full time, particularly during the summer term.

  • Q: I have so many other questions about the process. Where can I get answers?

    • A: Visit our general internship FAQ page for all you need to know!
