GLOBAL
INTERNSHIP
PROGRAM
HENNGE's Global Internship Program:
Meet Japan's most global
software engineering internship.
Work with our experienced Cloud Product Development engineers and a dedicated mentor.
Join us for a unique 4-6 weeks of tech internship in our Shibuya office, offering you both personal and professional development opportunities. Experience working onsite in a Japanese company that prides itself on cultivating an internationally diverse culture.
In the HENNGE’s Global Internship Program (GIP), you will acquire practical application development skills using Python, Go, and/or TypeScript. GIP will provide you with hands-on experience using state-of-the-art cloud platforms such as Amazon Web Services, offering a full-stack experience for application development.
English is our primary working language, so no Japanese is required. All interns are required to join our internship program in our headquarters in Shibuya, Tokyo, for 4-6 weeks, Monday to Friday, from 10 AM to 7 PM (JST). While the program is unpaid, full subsidies are provided for all interns, and qualified candidates may be offered full-time employment opportunities.
Enabling your
new future.
Changing tomorrow is a team effort. We expect to learn from our interns as much as they gain from their experience. We value differences by inviting skilled engineers from all over the globe and ensure every voice counts. Diversity deepens personal growth and keeps our business ahead of the curve. It's a win-win.
Kick off your career in Japan.
Since starting the program in 2013, we've developed a friendly network that ensures every intern feels at home and gets the most from their experience both professionally and personally, as proven by former interns we're proud to have since hired as full-time staff.
