Full Stack Engineer (Intern)

Why Vyaasa?

Writing is ready for its next evolution. Vyaasa is building a collaborative canvas where human creativity and advanced AI meet to craft research reports, stories, and documentation together. Our private alpha is in the testing phase; in a few weeks we’ll open the doors to early users. If you’re hungry to ship real products, shape the future of writing, and learn at break-neck speed alongside a small, passionate team, read on.

What you’ll do

1. Ship features end-to-end – Build new functionality in our React (Next.js) + NestJS stack, from database schema to polished UI.
2. Prototype with LLMs – Wire up, prompt, and fine-tune large-language-model endpoints to power smart outlining, contextual suggestions, and real-time AI collaboration.
3. Design for delight – Translate Figma mocks (and sometimes napkin sketches) into pixel-perfect, accessible components that feel effortless for users.
4. Iterate fast – Spin up proofs-of-concept in hours, gather feedback, and refine. “Done > perfect” – but you circle back to make perfect later.
5. Own quality – Write clean TypeScript, meaningful tests, and clear PR descriptions; hunt performance issues across the stack.
6. Hack on ideas – Pair with founders in whiteboard sessions to invent features we haven’t thought of yet. Your voice matters as much as your code.
7. Learn in public – Document decisions, share learnings, and level up your teammates as you level up yourself.

You might be the one if…

• You’ve built at least one substantial project with React (or similar) and Node/NestJS (personal, academic, or professional).
• You’re LLM-curious – you’ve played with OpenAI/Ollama, prompt engineering, or vector search and are eager to dive deeper.
• You sweat the details: loading states, a11y, keyboard shortcuts, micro-animations.
• Command line, Git, Docker, and PostgreSQL aren’t scary words.
• You thrive in ambiguity, ask great questions, and default to action.
• You care about users and can articulate the “why” behind every line of code.
• Bonus points for experience with: GraphQL, WebSockets, Slate/Lexical/ProseMirror, testing libraries, or design systems like shadcn/ui.

What’s in it for you

1. Real product impact – Your code will be in front of paying users within weeks, not quarters.
2. Mentorship & growth – Direct pairing with founding engineers; regular feedback loops.
3. Stipend – ₹15,000 - ₹20,000
4. Path to FTE – High performers receive a full-time offer (with equity) before the internship ends.
5. Creative freedom – Suggest crazy ideas; prototype them; ship if they work.
6. Founding-team culture – Small, intense, and fun. Stand-ups feel like problem-solving jams, not status meetings.
