Software Development Intern
Aditya
"I have always been a fan of computers and my dream has been to become a software engineer, by interning at CloudFit I was able to see if this career is right for me. By using different coding languages such as C# and TypeScript, I was able to familiarize myself more with what real-world software engineers use in their day-to-day life. I am very thankful that I was able to intern at CloudFit as it showed me that becoming a Software Engineer is the right job for me."
Cyber Security Intern
Dakota
"My time at CloudFit has been rather pleasant! The insight I got from taking part in the vulnerability scanning, scripting, and cybersecurity incident response processes will be integral in the future. The amount of focus placed on teamwork, communication, and inclusivity was not something I was expecting from an IT-related organization. Company culture wasn't the only great aspect, I hope I can maintain connections with the fellow interns and employess for years to come."

"I just want to say working as an intern at CloudFit has to have been the greatest experience in my career. Getting to know a plethora of knowledgeable individuals in this career field has given me a leg up on my road to success. The projects they put us on give us real-world experience, which gives us a giant boost in our careers. I would love to work for CloudFit someday not only because of the experiences but because the environment here has been exquisite."
Software Development Intern
Saniyah
"As someone that has been interested in technology for as long as I can remember, this internship has only deepened that love. Throughout the internship, I gained lots of real-life hands-on experience. I think anyone, whether they know about technology or not, can benefit from this internship. I think CloudFit is doing a great thing by not only hiring interns to work in their building, but it is also cool to see how they are helping the community around them through programs such as KidFit."
UI/UX Intern
Jack
"I decided to intern at CloudFit because I understand that cloud computing is the way of the future. During my internship, I was able to learn how to manage not just my own work, but also the work of my team as the project manager. The work environment at CloudFit is very lively and great! My favorite aspect of this internship is that the company makes me feel like I am part of something bigger than myself, which is something that large corporations often fail to do."
Software Engineering Capstone
Chris
"During my Capstone project, I learned how to work as a team to complete a real-world project. Members of our team took turns being the project manager, so we got a lot of leadership experience. We learned how to interact with clients, how to use different technologies, and learned C#. Overall, my experience was extremely positive, our stakeholder was patient, kind, and guided us in the right direction while still being hands off so we learned on our own."
Software Development Intern
Chris
"I was a career changer coming in from a dramatically different world than tech. JobFit gave me not only the opportunity, but the knowledge and skills to successfully break into the world of software engineering. In my internship, I was surrounded by encouraging and challenging individuals who took personal stake in seeing me grow into a fellow contributor. It was evident that I wasn’t merely a project but a person. Now, as a full time employee for CloudFit and coach for JobFit, I enjoy having the same wonderful opportunity to give assistance and training to others in the same way I was given."
Program Management Intern
Laurel
"I came into the internship at CloudFit from career in Public Health with a limited background in technology, yet a desire to make a career change and break into the tech space. During my time as an intern, I gained priceless hands-on experience and exposure to IT in a way that ignited a newer passion. I received support, mentoring, and encouragement from employees and fellow interns that was crucial in my development - my time here was a major turning point for my career and I couldn't be more grateful to have been given this opportunity. As a full time employee for CloudFit, the support I received as an intern has continued and I feel like a valued, appreciated member of a team. "
