Through HENNGE's GIP, you'll gain hands-on experience in application development using Python, Go, and/or TypeScript. Learn to leverage cutting-edge cloud platforms like Amazon Web Services (AWS) while honing your software development skills.
Our primary working language is English, so no Japanese is required. Interns are expected to join the program at our Shibuya headquarters in Tokyo for 4-6 weeks, Monday to Friday, from 10 AM to 7 PM (JST). While the program is unpaid, we provide comprehensive subsidies, and outstanding participants may be offered full-time employment opportunities.
