Job description
Software Engineering Intern Range is creating AI-powered solutions to eliminate financial complexity for our members. We're transforming wealth management through the perfect blend of cutting-edge technology and human expertise. We're obsessed with member experience! We've built an integrated platform that tackles the full spectrum of financial needs–investments, taxes, retirement planning, and estate management–all unified in one intuitive system. Backed by Google's Gradient Ventures and Cathay Innovations, we're in hyper-growth mode and looking for exceptional talent to join our starting lineup. Every Ranger at this stage is shaping our culture and way of life—from former CEOs and startup founders to experts from leading hedge funds and tech companies. If you're ready to build something that truly matters in financial services, bring your talent to Range. Here, you'll make a genuine impact on how people manage their financial lives while working alongside a team that celebrates wins, makes big decisions, and blazes new trails together.
About the Role
We're looking for Software Engineering Interns to join our team for a summer internship. You'll work alongside experienced engineers to build real features that impact our members, gaining hands-on experience across the full stack. This isn't a side project internship—you'll contribute meaningful code to our production platform from day one. This opportunity is based at Range's Headquarters in McLean, VA. This is a part-time in-office position.
What You'll Do
- Build and ship features across our web platform alongside a cross-functional team of engineers, designers, and product managers
- Write clean, well-tested code that contributes to a secure, scalable production environment
- Participate in code reviews, design discussions, and engineering team rituals
- Learn and apply engineering best practices in a fast-paced startup setting
- Take ownership of an intern project with real user impact, presenting your work to the team at the end of the program

- Familiarity with JavaScript, TypeScript, or similar programming languages
- Eagerness to work across the stack—frontend, backend, and infrastructure
- Strong problem-solving skills and a curiosity for learning new technologies quickly
- Excellent product instincts—you think about users first, not just the most elegant technical solution
- Ability to thrive in an ambiguous, fast-paced startup environment where you won't always be told exactly what to do

- Experience building web applications with React and TypeScript
- Exposure to Node.js or server-side JavaScript
- Familiarity with AWS or other cloud platforms
