SOFTWARE DEVELOPER
An internship at SCS provides more than just a peek into the world of software development; you'll be directly involved in our latest adventures. From working on the alpha version of Skeyenet to helping enhance our current suite of applications, you'll get valuable real world experience directly from the developers at SCS. Interns are provided the freedom, flexibility, and responsibility to make important design decisions and will implement their solutions to be used by customers around the world.
While the internship will be focused on programming, there will also be plenty of opportunities for fun. Work on developing VR content in the morning and play some Beat Saber during lunch! Or, try out a game of Backgammon or Onitama. Think you can take on the reigning poker champ? Join us for an afternoon poker tournament!
SCS is looking for hardworking students who are interested in software development. You'll have a chance to work on our digital monitoring system, 3D design and animation, VR applications, VR content displays, tracking system, editorial system, and more!

Hear straight from the interns themselves on what an internship at SCS is really like!

SCS is not your average software company. One might assume that a summer internship with a 40+ year old company that supplies newspaper publishers with back-end applications would be a summer of poring through thousands of lines of dusty database routines and clunky UI code. Now, granted, a summer at SCS might involve some of that, but it definitely isn't what you'll remember from your SCS experience. You'll remember the fun conversations at lunch, the organic teamwork with other employees, and the awesome new skills you acquired.
This was my fourth summer interning at SCS, and it's hard to express how much I have enjoyed it. I do computer stuff in all sorts of areas in my free time - web apps, game development, WebGL, parser design, 3D modeling, cartography, natural language processing - you name it, basically. Before my internship with SCS, I would have never believed that it would let me flex my coding muscles in all these domains at once. But it has, and so working at SCS is almost like getting paid to have fun. If you want a summer job that will engage all your skills and then some, SCS is the place for you!

I have nothing but good things to say about my time at SCS. As a summer intern for two years, I greatly benefited from working alongside experienced developers, developing modern technology, and designing new products. Despite what some may think about the current state of newspapers, SCS really pushes the envelope when it comes to the software they develop. I spent my time working on totally new projects built with innovative and modern technology, giving me incredibly useful experience that I can apply to the rest of my career as a developer.
SCS gives their interns a lot of freedom to direct the projects they work on. Interns are encouraged to take charge of projects and are tasked with making important design decisions. I felt like the senior developers were my peers, as we worked together to create new products. Overall, the environment at SCS was incredibly welcoming. I always had tons of fun at our picnics, company-wide poker games, and daily backgammon games during lunch. I would absolutely recommend an internship at SCS for any software developer looking to immerse themselves in a high-tech, collaborative, and fun environment!

My internships at SCS have been incredibly valuable. The incredible people here have allowed me to learn so much more beyond just software development. I've learned how a business operates and grows efficiently, how to work on a team, and the steps to bring a product idea to life. I've had the privilege of joining other fantastic interns to work with modern technologies and frameworks in creative ways. I had the freedom to explore 3D modeling and VR, which unexpectedly became a huge part of my job the last two summers. I definitely wouldn't have been able to find this experience at another company. This past summer, I had the opportunity to take a deep dive into backend web development, learning how reactive websites are developed and structured.
Now, as a college freshman at the University of Michigan, my experience has proved to be invaluable. My internships have helped me figure out what areas of computer science I'm most passionate about pursuing in the future. When I've spoken to employers, I already have a variety of relevant knowledge that makes me a competitive applicant. This past summer at SCS, I experimented with Python to create computer vision programs using AI. This experience allowed me to land a research position working with researchers at UofM and Vanderbilt University to use AI for document processing.

Nicholas Bull - Southern Lehigh High School
During my internship at SCS, what I learned most was how to work as a team to finish a programming project, and working in a professional work environment also helped me understand what is expected at a company when I finish my education. I appreciated how the interns were treated as regular employees and really felt part of the team. I really enjoyed it when I was challenged to come up with a solution to a problem, like the camera fishtank project, instead of just implementing a known solution which made me learn more and come up with solutions. The fishtank camera was also interesting because I was working on it while I was learning and improving my Typescript/Javascript skills. I also liked working on the waterfall diagram because I was able to solve problems that were challenging, such as getting the cursor to scroll vertically and adding live ads to the diagram.
Nathan Moore - Southern Lehigh High School
I worked on a few different projects over the summer, but the main ones were Scoop debugging, the Camera Fish for Skeyenet, and the Waterfall Diagram for Skeyenet. To work on these, I had to learn quite a bit about JavaScript, but I also learned some coding skills. For one, I didn't realize what reactive libraries were until I had worked on the Fishtank and I realized that it updates everything related to what was changed. Another one is that I learned how to make actual webpages, since Scoop was basically a website in and of itself.but the most important lesson was that I learned how to parse through and create complex programs, a skill that I didn't really have before.
