Technology Intern - New York - Summer 2026

Marshall Wace Internship Programmes • New York, NY

112d • $2,800 - $3,000

About The Position

Get a taste of working in a fast-paced, tech-led environment in our New York office. Our intern programme provides the opportunity to work directly with our Development teams. These projects support areas such as Finance, Operations, Risk, Trading, and Portfolio Management. During your internship, you will gain valuable hands-on experience with a multitude of technologies and disciplines such as devops, data engineering, cyber security, web development, business intelligence, software engineering, and stream processing. This internship is ideal for an innovative problem solver who can demonstrate inventive and creative use of technology. Successful participants will have the possibility to return full time as a graduate when they complete their studies. We don’t specifically look for those on a Computer Science degree but, do look for those who have actively developed technical, programming skills. This could be on previous internship programmes, through hackathon involvement or even just completing passion projects in your free time. We also look for those with exceptional academic achievement and impressive communication and collaboration skills. Finally, we also believe that the right person is more than just a technical expert. We place real value on team-working, entrepreneurialism and strong communication skills. This isn’t a scheme for someone who wants to sit quietly behind a desk.
