Software Engineering Intern

Dorsia is at the forefront of hospitality-tech innovation, redefining how the world gains access to the most in-demand restaurants, events, and experiences. By fusing cutting-edge technology with the art of luxury hospitality, we empower our members to secure impossible-to-get reservations while providing operators with unprecedented levels of control, visibility, and revenue optimization.

As a fast-growing startup backed by over $50M from top-tier investors including Index Ventures, along with strategic industry partners such as Major Food Group (Carbone, Torrisi, etc.), Groot Hospitality (Casadonna, Papi Steak, etc.), and Gracious Hospitality (COTE, Coqodaq, etc.), we are rapidly expanding our footprint and reshaping the global hospitality landscape with proven expertise. We’re adding exceptional talent to drive our next phase of growth, and that’s where you come in.

Dorsia is seeking a Software Engineering Intern to contribute to initiatives across our core product platform and exploratory R&D efforts. In this role, you’ll work alongside Product and Design to help build, test, and iterate on features that support both member and partner experiences.

You’ll gain hands-on experience developing production systems, building prototypes, and collaborating within a fast-moving, high-growth environment. This is an ideal opportunity for someone eager to sharpen their technical skills while seeing firsthand how strong engineering execution powers product innovation and a premium user experience.

• Contribute to development tasks across Dorsia’s software stack
• Assist with implementation, testing, and maintenance of application features
• Participate in code reviews and engineering discussions
• Learn and apply best practices in software development

• Collaborate with Product and Design partners on feature development or exploratory work
• Support prototyping, experimentation, and early-stage technical testing
• Contribute to technical documentation and exploratory analysis

• Pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field (must have completed junior-level CS coursework)
• Foundational knowledge of software engineering principles
• Experience with at least one programming language (e.g., JavaScript, Python, Java)
• Experience using modern AI-assisted software development tools (e.g., Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, or similar)
• Strong problem-solving skills and technical curiosity
• Comfort working collaboratively across Engineering, Product, and Design

At Dorsia, we believe that culture eats strategy. The best ideas in the world mean nothing without the right people around the table and the right chemistry between them. We are, unapologetically, a people-first organization. 

We’re creating once-in-a-lifetime experiences for the most discerning audience in the world. That doesn’t happen over Zoom. It happens through collisions: a spark across a desk, a kitchen-side conversation that unlocks a partnership, the energy of ideas felt, not typed. That’s why in-office culture is non-negotiable at Dorsia. 

We don’t subscribe to check-the-box hiring. We hire for merit and mindset, which naturally creates a team with varied backgrounds. What unites us isn’t demographics, it’s a shared vision: to build the social operating system for the cultural vanguard.

We’re not a 9-to-5 company. Our lifestyle mirrors our members. Early flights, after-work events, and late-night sprints when the work demands it. But we love what we do, and we definitely love a good party.

Working at Dorsia isn’t for everyone—and that’s the point. Our culture is designed for builders, not passengers. We move fast, set ambitious standards, and expect people to rise to them. If you have the talent and the drive, this will be a ride to remember.

We’re building something special. It will take long hours and relentless effort. It’s not for everyone. For those with the metabolism, you’ll create something that changes how culture is lived. And that’s the kind of work worth your life’s energy.
