About the Role

At Twitch, we’re always looking for high-potential talent. If you’re a current student in computer science, we’d love to see you apply. See below for just a few reasons why our cohort-based internship program is one-of-a kind.

As an intern, you’ll have the opportunity to work on some of the most challenging engineering problems in the industry, making every project a valuable learning experience.
