About Mitchell Interactive

Traffic during holiday peaks can reach ten times normal levels, and the platform is built for it.

Overview

Our Internal Tools team is five engineers working fully remote across two time zones. The intern picks up small backend tickets first and moves to bigger features once comfortable. We are headquartered in Los Angeles and have been hiring remotely since 2020. You will intern remotely with our team in Los Angeles. We have hosted remote interns from several countries before. Our standups are at 9:00 AM Pacific.
