Cambridge, ON Internship Hybrid $Competitive

About This Role

Is your 'IDE' a conversation? Is your 'code' a collaboration?If that sounds like your reality, we're looking for you.HeitechSoft is seeking an AI-First Developer to join our team. We're not looking for a traditional coder to fill a seat. We're looking for a pioneer who is fluent in the new language of software development: a constant, creative dialogue with artificial intelligence.This isn't an internship where you'll be fixing bugs in legacy code. This is a role where you will build, experiment, and define what it means to create software in the age of AI. Your mission will be to leverage AI as a core partner to design, develop, and deploy full-stack applications faster and smarter than ever before.

Responsibilities

What You'll Actually Do:

  • Practice Vibe-Based Coding: You won't just write code line-by-line. You'll use your expertise in Context Engineering to guide AI partners, shaping entire applications through high-level conversation and strategic prompts.
  • Live in AI-Native Environments: Master and leverage cutting-edge, AI-powered development environments like Cursor, Replit, and Lovable to build and iterate at unprecedented speeds.
  • Build Full-Stack Solutions: Take ideas from concept to reality. You'll work on real projects, developing everything from the backend logic to the frontend interface with your AI collaborator.
  • Automate the Developer Workflow: Go beyond coding and use AI to help with debugging, testing, documentation, and deployment, creating a truly AI-accelerated development lifecycle.
  • Become a Pioneer: You will be on the front lines, helping HeitechSoft discover and implement the most effective techniques for AI-assisted software creation.
Requirements

What We're Looking For (Requirements):

  • This is a junior role where your approach to problem-solving and your familiarity with modern tools are more important than years of experience.
  • Full-Stack Fundamentals: You have a solid, project-based understanding of the core concepts of full-stack development (e.g., you know what a front-end framework is, what an API does, and what a database is for).
  • AI-Native Tooling: You have hands-on experience or a deep interest in AI-centric development tools like Cursor, Replit, Lovable, or similar platforms.
  • Context Engineering Mindset: You instinctively know how to provide an AI with the right context-the right "vibe"-to get the results you want. You think in terms of prompts, context windows, and RAG.
  • A Builder's Portfolio: You have personal projects (they don't need to be perfect!) that demonstrate your ability to build things and your interest in AI.
  • Fast and Eager Learner: You are obsessed with the rapidly changing AI landscape and are constantly experimenting with new tools and techniques on your own.
  • Eligibility: You are a recent graduate or a current student in a relevant program (e.g., Computer Science, Software Engineering) and are eligible to participate in an internship/co-op program.
