    [] THE POSITION

    We seek an entry-level Software Intern who has demonstrated an interest in programming, Unity, and the creative process of exhibit design, and would like to increase their knowledge while gaining real industry experience. A Software Intern will work with and learn from our coders, designers, UI /UX developers, and producers as we work on the next generation of interactive exhibits and installations for world-renowned museums, zoos, aquariums, and Fortune 500 companies. Please see our portfolio to learn more about our work: https://ideum.com/portfolio 

    The Software Intern will help develop interactive exhibits, educational games, and other applications using a variety of large-scale hardware. Much of this programming is done in Unity, but we use a variety of different tools to develop public installations and exhibitions. In addition, the Software Intern will help test applications as they reach new stages of completion, followed by thorough written documentation that would allow anyone to understand how that application works. The ideal candidate has a programming background, is collaborative, and is quick to learn new techniques and technologies. 

    We are a fast-paced company with high expectations; we seek someone who is as passionate about the work as we are. Our developers collaborate with the rest of the Creative Services team and our hardware and fabrication groups, so strong writing, communication, and interpersonal skills are required. As a relatively small company (around 50 people) that is fast growing and has a diverse set of projects (and unique products), we seek individuals who are flexible and have a diverse skill set.
