Redgate Summer Software Engineering Internship

Aspiring Software Engineers – Join our paid Summer Software Engineering Internship Programme!

We’re seeking aspiring Software Engineers to join us for 10 weeks in Summer 2026 and gain valuable experience to support your studies and future career.

Redgate aspires to be the best place you’ll ever work, let alone intern. We strongly believe being an intern isn’t about watching people working, it’s about doing real work from day one, on things that make a real difference.

As a fully-fledged member of one of our development teams, you will work on real features and get the opportunity to see it all through to the very end, so you know you’ve made a real difference. As a result, you’ll experience how our development teams go about creating software, including the design, implementation, and testing of features.

Interns work in small, autonomous teams with software engineers, product designers, and a technical lead to create elegant commercial software; teamwork is very important to us.  You will have a dedicated mentor to help you through your internship, answer any questions, and make sure you have a great time.

To learn more about what it’s like to work at Redgate, take a look at our blogs on Ingeniously Simple.

What we’ll offer you:

• A chance to work with an experienced agile development team.
• We’ll help you bridge the gap between coding simple functions to engineering software that ships to thousands of customers.
• We’ll help develop you into a software expert, shaping requirements and estimates, writing great code and shipping features.
• We’ll cultivate your technical knowledge with design patterns, test-driven development, peer-review, and more.
• Get involved with team activities which might include releasing product updates, customer research, or running retrospectives
• 10 weeks’ pay, a relaxed & professional environment, personal development, hybrid work model (mix of home & Cambridge office working) & social activities

What makes you Redgate’s next Software Intern? 

• You have a genuine passion for software.
• You expect to graduate in 2027 with a university degree in a relevant discipline.
• You are available & eager to join us for 10 weeks starting 29^th June 2026 – 4^th September 2026.
• You have a profound understanding of the value of teamwork.
• Your grades haven’t been affected by your extra-curricular exploits with your favourite coding languages.

Alongside the tech, I learned so much about teamwork, communication, and building software that actually makes an impact. I feel incredibly fortunate to have spent my summer working alongside such a supportive, welcoming, and talented group of people. Thank you for making this internship an unforgettable and truly valuable experience.” Karyna Botvina, past Software Intern
