Spring/Summer 2027 Engineering Intern

Primer is a growing network of K–8 schools restoring the timeless foundations of American education. Inspired by the original teaching primers that shaped a nation of readers, thinkers, and builders, our schools begin with what has always worked, and build for what lies ahead. Close-knit learning environments. Skilled educators. A culture that takes kids seriously as learners and leaders.

Primers shaped the first 200 years of American children. Primer will ready them for the next.

We're hiring Full Stack Software Engineering Interns. The internship begins in January, May, or June, with a preferred commitment of 4 to 8 months. You'll build PrimerOS, the operating system that runs our schools, shipping features that teachers, students, and families rely on every day.

Primer's goal is simple: fix K–12 education in America. We build schools from the ground up and run them on a single operating system nobody's built before. That means the work is broad by nature. Our engineering projects span frontend, backend, systems, hardware, and more. As a startup, we give interns real ownership and mission-critical work, with a small, high-performing team around you for mentorship and support.
