About the job

ABOUT US!

At Candy Digital, we're driven by a single question: How can Web3 technology revolutionize the world of collectibles?

Our mission is to take the passion of being a devoted fan and elevate it to new heights by building a fully immersive digital storefront where fans can buy, sell, and trade their digital collectibles with unique, gamified experiences behind each engagement.

We're proud to have the support of some of the top leaders in the Web3 space, including Galaxy Digital, ConsenSys Mesh, and Palm. These partners are revolutionizing how we invest in, build, and interact with digital collectibles. We're excited to work alongside them to create next-generation experiences that deepen fan engagement and connect people to their passions.

Candy is headquartered in New York City, with a hybrid work environment that thrives on community and inclusivity. Led by innovators across the industry, we foster a culture of meaningful engagement and impactful change, always striving to bring enthusiasts closer to the field and re-envision the world of collectibles.

Fandom, reimagined.

SO YOU WANT TO JOIN CANDY?

We’re on the lookout for interns with a growth mindset to help build the future of Candy. We are looking for a motivated, passionate, and self-driven individual with knowledge of software development and a strong interest in NFT’s (non-fungible tokens) and a strong understanding of cryptocurrency. As we tie both tech and fandom together, we are looking for a developer who can provide creative solutions, thinking outside the box but still being able to take direction from our operations leaders.

Our internship program isn’t just a job; we offer real world experience and opportunities to make an impact to the future of the NFT space. As a summer intern, you will join our Operations team and get a view into the development of one of the fastest growing start-ups in NYC. The kind of person that will thrive in this internship is someone looking to learn and gain insights into Opoerations Management fundamentals, foundational business practices, and the ability to make an impact to the metaverse.

At Candy, we are searching for creative minds that are excited to take on challenges in the immediate while providing vision to the future. We want builders, innovators, and those that can not only think outside the box but collaborate outside the box.
