hiya - Engineering Intern (London, Summer 2027)

• Engineering: CS majors - 2nd year (graduating 2028) • Excitement to work on innovative technology advancements • A philosophy of iteration and continuous improvement • Working knowledge of building services that adhere to operational SLAs • A preference for velocity over perfection • A commitment to respectful and impactful collaboration • Self-motivated and excited to learn about new technologies • OUR INTERVIEW PROCESS: THE HIYA VOICE AI CHALLENGE • Once we’ve confirmed your eligibility, you’ll receive the Hiya Voice AI Challenge by email-- a chance to build a working prototype of a voice-driven product in one of five tracks: Accessibility, Productivity, Creative Voice, Security, or Real-Time Assistance. You’ll have one week to build it, with optional virtual office hours along the way if you’d like to pitch your idea and get steering from our team first. • Submit and get reviewed. One of our engineers reviews your work. If we’d like to explore your project further, you’ll get a link to book a 30-minute virtual session with an engineer or two-- a quick demo, a walkthrough of your code, and some questions. • Final interviews, in person at Hiya. Candidates who advance join us for a final round in London (2nd & 3rd of December): a debugging/fixing session, a chance to add a feature to your own project, and a conversation about Hiya’s values. • AI tools are welcome and encouraged the whole way through. • WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM US • Dedicated technical mentorship with structured, regular feedback check-ins • Clear project scope and goals provided right at the start of your internship • Comprehensive onboarding to get you up to speed on Hiya's tooling, codebases, and systems quickly • A supportive, collaborative environment built on psychological safety and genuine impact • Hiya is not a passive environment. We expect people to take ownership, form opinions, and engage directly with hard problems. • We work with a high degree of transparency and autonomy. Context is shared openly, and decisions are discussed, challenged, and then made. Once a call is made, we commit and move forward. • You'll be expected to work through ambiguity, weigh tradeoffs, and take responsibility for results, while keeping a high bar for quality and customer trust. • Every team member at Hiya is expected to live our core values: • Serve, our customers and partners by holding a high bar for trust and quality • Own, share in success and open up to failures • Lead, listen, show up with a point of view but commit entirely once a decision has been made • Improve, even if it means changing course or contradicting ourselves • Do, rather than observe • COME WORK WITH US! • We're building a team with diverse perspectives, identities, and professional experiences. We evaluate candidates through a business lens and believe that diversity and unique viewpoints make our company stronger, more dynamic, and a great place to build a career. • We've been recognized by Built In, GeekWire, Comparably, G2, Forbes, and Deloitte Technology Fast 500 for our culture, innovation, leadership, compensation, and more.
