Accounting & Finance Intern
About The Position
Engrain builds map-based tech that’s redefining how real estate works. Our interactive, unit-level maps and powerful data integrations help over 1,000 companies—and 20,000 properties—to make smarter decisions, streamline leasing, and deliver better renter experiences. From prospect to renewal, our products give properties a spatial brain and a visual edge when it comes to property marketing and management. And it’s working: our churn rate is just 5%, and we’ve been putting up double-digit growth numbers every year. We’re not your typical proptech company. We move fast, we stay curious, and we don’t do stale or corporate fluff. Backed by successful Seed and Series A rounds, we’re entering a phase of serious scale. We are searching for an Accounting & Finance Intern to learn from our team this summer. This nine week internship provides meaningful, real world experience for students pursuing a degree in accounting or finance. The program combines hands-on exposure to accounting operations, financial planning and analysis (FP&A), and executive leadership to show how classroom concepts translate into practical business applications. It is designed to strengthen technical knowledge, analytical thinking, and professional confidence through guided work and mentorship from the finance team. This role will be on site at our Greenwood Village Colorado office, full time (approximately 40 hours per week). The intern will divide their time, spending a designated portion of each week with the accounting and FP&A team while also executing a finance leadership directed project focused on applied experience and entity benchmarking.
