Product & Technology Internship

A little about us:

• We're GuruCool, an early-stage technology startup building a connected operating system for educational institutions.
• We're working on a simple but meaningful problem: teachers spend too much time on administrative work, students often become messengers between institutions and parents, and important information doesn't always reach the right people when it should.
• We believe thoughtful technology can change that.
• Our goal is to bring academics, attendance, communication, administration, and everyday institutional operations into one connected ecosystem.
• And we're looking for a few curious minds who would like to be part of building it.

What will you actually do?

You'll work with our team on real projects, explore how technology products are built, and learn by solving actual problems.

Depending on your interests and abilities, you may contribute to:

• Product development, research, and feature planning.
• Software development, testing, and debugging.
• AI, automation, and exploring new technologies.
• UI/UX improvements and understanding user problems.
• Documentation, problem-solving, and improving existing workflows.

You won't just be watching tutorials or working on imaginary assignments. We want you to understand the reasoning behind what we're building and contribute wherever you can.

Here's what we expect from you:

We don't expect you to know everything. Seriously.

• You might not know a particular programming language, tool, framework, or development process, and that's okay.
• What matters more to us is how you think, how you approach unfamiliar problems, and what you do when you don't know the answer.
• We appreciate people who ask questions, experiment, make mistakes, accept feedback, and genuinely try to improve.
• You don't need an impressive resume or previous internship experience. If you've built something interesting, tried learning something independently, or simply have a genuine interest in technology, we'd love to hear about it.

Who can apply?

• This opportunity is intended for students currently pursuing their education, with an expected graduation year of 2027, 2028, 2029, or 2030.
• We encourage students from Computer Science, Engineering, Technology, Design, and related disciplines to apply.
• Relevant personal projects and practical skills are always appreciated, but previous professional experience is not required.

Let's talk about the commitment openly:

• We believe you should know exactly what you're signing up for.
• Stipend: ₹2,000
• Working hours: Approximately 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM
• Working days: 5–6 days per week
• Commitment: Approximately 20–24 hours per week
• This is a part-time, learning-focused internship.
• We understand that the stipend is modest, and we don't want to disguise that behind fancy benefits or promises.
• We're a young startup, and this opportunity is designed for students who are comfortable with the commitment and genuinely interested in gaining practical experience.
• Please consider your academic schedule, personal commitments, and expectations before applying.

What can you expect from us?

• You'll get the opportunity to work on genuine product challenges, interact with a small team, understand how decisions are made, and develop practical skills through hands-on experience.
• We believe learning works best when people are encouraged to ask questions, receive constructive feedback, and gradually take ownership of their work.
• We cannot promise that you'll become an expert in a few weeks or guarantee a full-time position afterward.
• But we do want your time with GuruCool to be meaningful and worthwhile.

Details:

• We want to understand the person behind the resume.
• Tell us about yourself, your interests, what you've tried learning, and why this opportunity appeals to you.
• You don't need perfectly polished English or an AI-generated introduction. Hindi, English, Hinglish, or conversational language is completely fine.
• We'd much rather hear your genuine thoughts.
• Applications will be reviewed for relevant interests, learning attitude, and availability. Shortlisted candidates may be invited for a conversation to discuss their interests, expectations, and role fit.
• Take a little time to understand what we're building, explore our vision, and see whether the work genuinely interests you.
• We're not looking for people who already have all the answers.
• We're looking for people who are excited to find them.

See you at GuruCool!
