2025 Applied Technology Summer Internship

Schonfeld
New York, NY Intern
POSTED ON 4/2/2025
AVAILABLE BEFORE 5/27/2025
The Role

We are excited to offer an opportunity for a diverse group of talented students to join the internship program at Schonfeld. You’ll spend ten weeks with either the Solutions Engineering team or the Applied Technology team within the Schonfeld Technology division where you will be immersed in the culture and atmosphere of Schonfeld, working alongside talented professionals on meaningful projects.

Both the Technology and Solutions Engineers at Schonfeld take on a wide range of responsibilities and challenges. Specifically, the Technology Engineers are responsible for helping automate operational tasks to reduce variability and maximize velocity including, but not limited to, application building/deploying, infrastructure, configuration management and monitoring. While the Solutions Engineers are responsible for building tools that improve portfolio manager workflows and drive efficiencies across the business.

What You’ll Do

As a member of Applied Technology team, you'll have the opportunity to collaborate with senior engineers to enhance the functionality, performance, stability, efficiency, and scalability of our internal platforms. You'll take ownership of these platforms, focusing on automating tool rollouts for company-wide use and managing and advancing our Kubernetes infrastructure.

The Applied Solutions flagship product, SchonGPT, is an internal AI platform that provides ChatGPT-like functionality with deep integrations into internal systems to enhance workflows. As a member of this team, you'll have the opportunity to collaborate with senior engineers to build out tools and bots to improve portfolio manager workflows and drive efficiencies across the business.

You will be assigned both a manager and mentor, participate in organized team-building events, lunch and learns, social activities, and network with senior management throughout the summer. You will be assigned summer-long projects that will be directly related to the work of the team you are assigned to, which you will present on at the completion of the program. Upon completion of the internship, you may be extended a full-time offer of employment.

We do not require prior experience in finance, but we do require a passion for technology and solving business problems

  • A junior pursing a degree in a technical field
  • Someone who has demonstrated strong interest in the AI, Cloud and DevOps Technologies space through previous internships, part time jobs and/or classes
  • High levels of creativity and quick problem-solving capabilities
  • Strong interest in taking ownership of his/her work
  • Strong analytical and organizational skills
  • Programming knowledge in Python
  • Experience with automation deployment software – Kubernetes, Docker
  • Ability to work collaboratively with cross-functional teams.
