Unpaid Internship

Location: Remote | Duration: 6 Months | Stipend: Zero | Hiring: 10–12 Crazy People

THE MISSION — READ THIS OR DON'T BOTHERWe're building a B2B HR tech product from ZERO to REVENUE in 30 days.If that sentence doesn't make your heart race, close this tab now.

This isn't an internship. This is a
startup battlefield
. We're taking 10–12 absolutely insane developers who want to experience what it actually takes to build a company from nothing.

WE'RE NOT OFFERING:

• Money (we're broke founders too)
• Comfortable corporate environment
• Hand-holding or structured training
• Guarantees of any kind

WE'RE OFFERING:

• Real scars
  from building under impossible deadlines
• Actual startup experience
  — not theoretical classroom BS
• Portfolio that proves
  you can ship under pressure
• Stories you'll tell for years
  about that time you built a company in 30 days
• Potential equity
  if you survive and want to keep going

THE INSANE PLANPHASE 1: BATTLE MODE (Days 1–30)

Goal:
MVP that gets first paying customer

• Week 1: Product definition + tech stack setup
• Week 2–3: Building like your life depends on it
• Week 4: Selling to actual businesses while coding

PHASE 2: SURVIVAL MODE (Months 2–3)

Goal:
Get to sustainable revenue

• Pivot based on customer feedback
• Fix everything that breaks (everything will break)
• Learn what customers actually pay for

PHASE 3: GROWTH MODE (Months 4–6)

Goal:
Scale or die trying

• Optimize for scale
• Build processes that don't suck
• Either we make it or we learn why we didn't

WHAT YOU'LL ACTUALLY DO

No bullshit tasks. You'll be:

• Coding features at 2 AM because a customer needs it tomorrow
• Talking to actual business owners about their attrition problems
• Deploying to production and watching it break in real-time
• Making product decisions that determine if we eat next month
• Learning that startup theory and startup reality are different planets

Tech Stack (We'll Use Whatever Works):

• Frontend: React/Whatever gets the job done
• Backend: cares if it works
• Database: Something that doesn't crash immediately
• Infrastructure: Cloud services we can't afford but use anyway

WHO WE WANTThe Crazy 10–12:

• People who see "impossible deadline" as a personal challenge
• Developers who'd rather build something broken that works than something perfect that never ships
• Humans who don't need permission to solve problems
• Those who understand that "learning" means "getting your hands dirty"

Minimum Requirements:

• Basic knowledge of full-stack web development (
  React
  +
  
  +
  SQL
  )
• Comfort with
  Git/GitHub
  and basic project workflow
• Ability to learn new tools quickly (Supabase, Slack API, Tailwind)
• Problem-solving mindset — not afraid to dig into errors
• Reliable availability (
  ~15–20 hours/week
  for 6 months)
• Communication skills to report progress daily

Nice-to-Have (But Not Required):

• Familiarity with REST APIs and cron jobs
• Exposure to rule-based logic or basic JS/TS scripting

SELECTION PROCESSStep 1: Prove You're Crazy

Show us something you built that shouldn't have worked but did

Step 2: Battle Test

We'll give you a real problem and 48 hours to build something

Step 3: Reality Check

We'll tell you exactly how hard this will be. If you're still interested, you're in.

THE HARD TRUTH

This will be the hardest 6 months of your life. You will:

• Work nights, weekends, and probably holidays
• Deal with constant uncertainty and chaos
• Build things that fail spectacularly
• Question your life choices multiple times per week
• Probably not sleep enough

But you'll also:

• Learn more in 6 months than most developers learn in 2 years
• Build a network of insane people who actually ship
• Have a portfolio that makes recruiters drool
• Understand what it actually takes to build a business
• Either help build something amazing or learn why it failed
