The posting

At a glance

Location: Cambridge

In-office expectation: Usually once every two weeks, when your team is in

Employment type: Paid internship, 10 weeks summer 2027

Why this role exists: To give people heading into their final year of university the chance to spend summer 2027 as a full member of one of our product teams, building software that database professionals around the world rely on.

About Redgate

Redgate brings together people who want to do their best work in an environment built on trust, accountability, and collaboration.

We build solutions that help data professionals securely manage the data and databases that their organisations depend on. It’s a space that’s only becoming more critical as systems scale, data regulations increase, and AI adoption accelerates.

AI at Redgate

By 2028, Redgate will operate as an expert-plus-agent company: domain experts amplified by AI, delivering customer value at a pace our peers can’t match.

AI handles the heavy lifting. Our people control the judgment. Everyone at Redgate works with Claude, giving you access to the best AI tools from day one.

Why join our software engineering team?

· You’ll join a product team as a full member, working on the same things as everyone else, not on a side project in a corner.

· You’ll work in a team that cares about craft, collaboration, and quality.

· There’s real support to grow, with your own intern manager for feedback and a buddy for everything else, plus protected time every week to learn and develop skills.

About the role

For 10 weeks, you’ll work alongside our engineers on real software, shipping features that real customers use. You’ll be part of the day-to-day life of the team, with the support and room to learn what a first role in software deserves.

• Pair with engineers, get your code reviewed (and review theirs), and take part in standups, planning and retros.

• Work on the same things as everyone else, using the same tools, including AI tools like Claude.

• Spend every Friday afternoon (10% of your time) on learning, whether that’s lightning talks, a community of practice or building something of your own.

• Last year’s interns merged code in their first week, shipped a feature customers had been asking for, fixed a customer support issue, ran team standups and retros, gave a talk to the wider company, and learned C# and .NET on the job to build their own project.

“I didn’t feel like an intern, I really felt like part of the team.” Kris Sananpanichkul, past software intern

What makes you a great fit

You don’t need to tick every box. We care more about how you communicate, learn and work with others than how many lines of code you write.

• You expect to graduate in 2028 with a degree in a relevant subject, and you’re available for the full 10 weeks.

• You enjoy software and like figuring out how things work.

• You communicate clearly, ask questions, and share what you learn.

• You enjoy working as part of a team, including giving and receiving feedback.

• You have the right to work in the UK (we can’t offer visa sponsorship for the internship).

How to apply

No cover letter needed. Just send your CV that includes:

• Education: your course and year of graduation

• Work experience: anything relevant, if you have it. It’s fine if you don’t.

• Something you’re proud of: something you’ve built, fixed or figured out. It could be a uni project, a side project, a game mod, a Discord bot or a tricky bug. It all counts.

• What you want from this: what you hope to learn or get out of the internship

What happens next?

Your application will be reviewed by a person. We don’t use AI or automated tools to assess applications. Every profile is read by one of our Talent Partners.

You’ll hear back within a few days. Whether it’s a next step or a no, we aim to respond promptly so you’re not left waiting.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
