The KQED Product Team is responsible for designing and developing digital experiences for the kqed.org website, KQED mobile apps, and Youth Media Challenges. Our Software Engineering Intern(s) will report to our Product Engineering Team to assist with projects for KQED and our Bay Area Community. This is a training and learning position which seeks to supplement the skill set of someone who is interested in either a coding boot camp or CS degree. We recognize that traditional CS training programs leave out fundamental organizational and management skills required for success of students and novice programmers. This internship program seeks to close that gap and provide our interns with core knowledge of the software development cycle as a whole, rather than coding alone. KQED envisions a public media organization with a culture that centers on human dignity, equity, and belonging. This will enable us to better serve and reflect the Bay Area through diverse and inclusive storytelling. We value the contributions of marginalized people in society — including Black, Indigenous, and all people of color, people with disabilities, and LGBTQIA+ people — and we believe that these communities must be centered in the work we do, and we strongly encourage members of these communities to apply. The mission that drives us: KQED provides citizens of Northern California with a community-supported alternative to commercial media. We provide citizens with the knowledge they need to make informed decisions; convene community dialogue; bring the arts to everyone and engage audiences to share their stories. We help students and teachers thrive in 21st-century classrooms, and take people of all ages on journeys of exploration- exposing them to new people, places, and ideas.
