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.
