What Does a Verdi Internship Look Like? We approach our internships with high flexibility so we can adapt your relatively short time here to your talents and interests.
As a fairly small team, we'll need your help to ensure you get the most from your time with us. We'll work together to identify what style of internship works best for you. You can work within our regular development process or choose to take ownership over a larger contained project.

- Device communication architecture used to handle communication with our fleet of Verdi and third-party devices
- Cloud infrastructure and DevOps to improve how we build, deploy, and maintain our systems
- Data Analysis and Machine Learning explorations/systems/features to help use our data to provide more value
- Documentation and process improvements
- Anything else you could feasibly improve
You'll also be expected to:
- Write code that is extensible, well-documented, and readable
- Collaborate with people from relevant teams including Hardware, Design, and Business
- Manage any internship requirements with your school in a timely manner
- Participate in project management processes
- Communicate your work with the wider team
Finally, we'll have regular check-ins to make sure you're progressing well and have dedicated opportunities for mentorship.
What We're Looking For You are:
- Enthusiastic about software and data
- Eager to learn on your own and from others
- Able to write code in a software engineering context with some knowledge of best practices
- Open-minded and receptive to feedback
- Detailed and thoughtful in everything you create
- Communicative and someone who asks questions
You must:
- Be enrolled in a relevant technical program at a University/College
- Plan to graduate from your program within 2 years
- Be able to work in Vancouver, BC for the duration of the internship
- Have Canadian citizenship, Permanent Residency or refugee status (International students are not eligible)
What We're Excited By
- Familiarity with our stack
- Interest and/or experience in the agriculture/sustainability industry
- Past internships/experience doing software/data work, especially in startups
- Personal/school projects that demonstrate strong technical and creative abilities
What you get Compensation
- Hourly wage of $25-45/hour paid as 8 hours/day (no time-logging)
- Vacation pay of 4% of days worked (time off is unpaid)
- Potential relocation bonus
- Flexible time-off policy
- Hybrid work (in-office M-W-F)
- Flexible hours
- Chance to shape a fast-growing startup and transform the agriculture industry
- Travel opportunities to visit growers at their operations
