Software Engineer - Intern

About Us Maxima is the first agentic AI platform for enterprise accounting, purpose built to deliver SOX compliant, real time close. Our founders have experience coming from both sides of the problem: from overseeing the finance org at Rubrik, to building month-end close systems at Twitter and Netflix. We have raised the largest seed in history in the accounting space from Kleiner Perkins & Audacious Ventures and are backed by finance leaders at companies such as Rippling, OpenAI, and UI Path. Role Overview As a Software Engineering Intern at Maxima, you will work directly with our engineering and product teams to help build the foundation of the world’s first AI-native accounting platform. You will contribute to the design and implementation of systems that automate complex financial workflows, power our agentic automation framework, and make enterprise accounting faster and more accurate. This is a hands‑on role where you’ll write production-quality code, participate in architectural discussions, and gain exposure to large language model (LLM) integrations, workflow orchestration, and data-intensive systems. You’ll learn how modern AI and automation technologies are applied to solve real-world enterprise problems at scale. Key Responsibilities Contribute to full-stack development across front-end and back-end systems. Work on core product features such as journal entry automation, reconciliations, and anomaly detection. Build APIs and integrations with financial systems including ERPs, HRIS, and banking platforms. Assist in developing agentic workflows using large language models. Collaborate with designers and product managers to deliver polished, reliable user experiences. Participate in code reviews, debugging, and testing to ensure performance and quality. Learn and apply software engineering best practices in scalability, observability, and CI/CD. Qualifications Currently pursuing a bachelor’s or master’s degree in computer science, software engineering, or a related field. Strong foundation in computer science fundamentals (data structures, algorithms, databases). Experience with at least one modern programming language such as Go, Python, TypeScript, or Java. Familiarity with front-end technologies such as React, Next.js, or similar frameworks. Curiosity about AI, automation, and how large language models can transform enterprise software. Ability to work independently, learn quickly, and collaborate in a fast-paced environment. Previous internship or project experience in SaaS, fintech, or AI applications is a plus. Why Join Us Work directly with senior engineers and founders solving complex AI and systems challenges. Gain exposure to modern architectures, AI workflows, and enterprise-grade software development. Be a core part of a mission-driven startup looking to transform accounting processes. Stipend, networking opportunities, and potential for full-time conversion upon graduation. #J-18808-Ljbffr
