Software Engineer Internship

• As of now we are looking for a Software Engineer Intern (internally we use the title Product Engineer Intern) to join our Tech team

• You’ll join our engineering team of 8, working across our internal Cockpit and three customer-facing apps (Waste Saver, Data, Partner Portal). We work as one team, broken into smaller monthly projects - so you’ll get to touch most of the platform during your time with us

• Ship features end-to-end across the stack (frontend, backend, a bit of data, a bit of infra - whatever the problem needs)

• Use AI tooling (Claude, agents, and more) as a core part of how you build

• Talk to the people who’ll use what you build, whether that’s our internal business users or our customers out in the world

• Contribute to our internal libraries, patterns and the way we work

Benefits

• Travel allowance

• 25 paid vacation days per year

• Share in our success with a SAR share package

• A fresh vegan lunch daily, except if you work from home

• Good equipment with at least a (refurbished) Macbook

• Working at a prime location in Amsterdam with a panoramic view of the Houthavens

• Inspiring sessions, sports activities (boot camp, paddle, skating, etc.) and drinks to celebrate successes- Are eager to take ownership and have proved it with school projects, side projects, internships, or something you can show us

• Are AI-native: you’ve already built things with LLMs, you know what they’re good at and (more importantly) what they’re not, and you’re allergic to “but AI said so” as a defense

• Have some experience with TypeScript, JavaScript or Python - ideally with a frontend framework (we use Vue), a backend one (we use NestJS), or both. Want to contribute full stack, even if you don’t know all parts of it yet

• Study in the Netherlands and would like to work from the office at least three days a week

• Are pragmatic - you’d rather ship a useful 80% than polish a 100% that nobody asked for

• You ask “why are we doing this?” and “have we talked to a user?” before reaching for the keyboard

• Thrive in a dynamic environment where collaborating with a product manager, designer, engineers and end-users is part of the job

• If you’re not entirely sure whether you meet all the requirements, but you’re enthusiastic about us and the role, apply anyway! We want people who are also willing to take risks. Together we learn and grow- Tell us why this role excites you and how you’d use your skills to help us grow. No long cover letter needed, just thoughtful input in our application form will do
