SDE Intern

There is only one way to get this internship: perform well in the BharatCode Build League.
We do not shortlist resumes for this role. We look at what you build. Register for the hackathon, build a useful AI app, bot or tool on the BharatCode API and ship it on GitHub. The strongest builders from the hackathon get an interview with us. If you do not take part in the hackathon, we will not be able to consider your application.
AI shouldn’t be a luxury.
The best AI tools on the planet are priced in dollars. That shuts out most of India (students, indie hackers, two-person startups) from the one tool that’s rewriting how software gets built.
BharatCode is ending that.
Powerful AI coding for every Indian developer: priced in rupees, free for students, and generous enough that you never ration a prompt again. No dollar paywalls. No waitlists. Nobody left behind.
We need builders to make it happen.
