Full Stack Internship

PopIn is a mobile platform that helps people discover and connect with others at live events and local venues. Whether someone is at a networking mixer, tech meetup, or community event, PopIn shows who’s around, what they’re up for, and who wants to meet — making real-world connections easier and more inclusive.

This internship will focus on advancing PopIn’s technical development and preparing the platform for broader pilot testing. The intern will work on intelligent attendee matching, event engagement insights, real-time notifications, and deployment of a fully functional app. This project contributes to solving modern challenges around social isolation, community-building, and event engagement through mobile-first technology.
