About the role
Why you'll love working at Shopify
Biggest Rails app in the world. Love Rails? Us too. You get to see how Shopify handles the largest Rails app in the world — and continuously make it better.
Solve problems at a massive scale. Work on complex engineering problems, with full ownership, on products real people use every day.
Ethical by design. Machine learning can make commerce better — and runs the risk of making it worse, too. Carve out how models and algorithms embed in our product to truly support our mission.
Meet our CEO in the code. You'll hear from our CEO, Tobi, regularly. He sets the direction, learns by coding, and is deeply passionate about the details.
Important note: Please make sure you're applying to only one job in one country! Example: Engineering Internship in USA. Please do not submit applications to multiple jobs in Canada and the USA. Your first application is what our team will consider. Thank you!

Being a Shopify Intern
Our hiring process is unique. We match interns to teams we think they'd be successful in and what works best for Shopify. We're looking for:
Applied Machine Learning Engineers to use extensive data to build products and create and fine-tune ML models.
Infrastructure Engineers to build and develop the blocks that move all of Shopify forward.
Security Engineers to detect, evaluate, and address security threats to Shopify and its merchants.
Software Engineers to craft the code that powers commerce, creating the extendable products that scale the entire commerce stack.
Shopify is a big part of the Ruby and Rails communities, and we're constantly improving our codebase to make it even better. You do not need prior Rails experience to apply to this Internship!
About the company
Opportunity is not evenly distributed. Shopify puts independence within reach for anyone with a dream to start a business. We propel entrepreneurs and enterprises to scale the heights of their potential. Since 2006, we've grown to over 8,300 employees and generated over $1 trillion in sales for millions of merchants in 175 countries.
This is life-defining work that directly impacts people's lives as much as it transforms your own. This is putting the power of the few in the hands of the many, is a future with more voices rather than fewer, and is creating more choices instead of an elite option.
