Software Engineer Intern — Summer 2026 | 8–12 Weeks

Nium is the global infrastructure company powering real-time cross-border payments. Founded to deliver the payments infrastructure of tomorrow, today, we are building a programmable, borderless, and compliant money-movement layer that powers transactions between people, businesses, and intelligent systems — enabling banks, fintechs, payroll providers, travel platforms, marketplaces, and other global enterprises to move money instantly, anywhere in the world. Co-headquartered in San Francisco and Singapore, with offices in 14 markets and team members across 20+ countries, we take pride in a culture anchored in Keeping It Simple, Making It Better, and Winning Together. 2025 was the strongest year in our 10-year history, with record revenue, record transaction volumes, and EBITDA profitability — and we are now entering one of the most dynamic chapters in our journey. We believe the best work happens face-to-face, and we operate a hybrid model with three in-office days per week to strengthen collaboration, alignment, and innovation. We move over $50B annually across a network that spans 190+ countries, 100 currencies, and 100 real-time corridors. We power fast payouts to accounts, wallets, and cards; enable local collections in 35 markets; and support card issuance in 34 countries — all backed by licenses across 40+ markets. With over $300M raised to date, Nium offers ambitious builders the opportunity to shape the future of global money movement — at scale. At Nium, we move money across the globe — powering card issuance, payments, and financial infrastructure that businesses and people rely on every day. We're a fast-growing fintech operating at scale, and this summer, we're opening a seat on the team for someone curious, hungry to learn, and ready to see what real software engineering looks like from the inside. This isn't a "make the slides and watch from the sidelines" internship. You'll be embedded in our engineering team, writing code that ships, and contributing to a product that real people use.
