Software Engineer

Summer internship · Copenhagen

A summer building real production systems. You ship things clients use, sitting beside the team and learning fast from Gustav, our co-founder and CTO (ex-Palantir). A path to a full-time role.

Apply for this role

We are building toward a world where leaders make people decisions with the same strategic clarity as market, finance and growth decisions. Atlas People combines psychometrics, business context and AI to give leaders clear insight into organisational fit, execution risk and leadership potential.

We are a Copenhagen team that pairs rigorous psychometric science with fast product execution. We are growing quickly, and you are close to the customer and the work from day one.

We have the building blocks: n8n workflows, the client portal, Atlas chat, the psychometric test. You will help turn these fragmented pieces into AtlasOS, the product behind the vision. You build alongside Gustav (ex-Palantir): you get an idea, you talk it through, you build it, you ship it. Ideation is flat.

Location & work mode

Copenhagen, office-first and on-site. We build in the room together. Sitting beside the team is how you learn fastest, and how ideas turn into shipped work in a single afternoon.

CommitmentSummer internship
HoursFull-time, all of August, or more if you have time

CompensationInternship pay, discussed early in the process

What you'll do

Build new features on AtlasOS end to end. You get the idea, you build it, you ship it.
Use the newest and best AI coding tools to build fast and reliably.

What we're looking for

You understand the code. Anyone can vibe code today. We are looking for someone who understands, or wants to understand, how to build reliable production software: you direct AI tools to write it, read it critically, and know when it is wrong. This is non-negotiable.
You build with AI. You work fluently with modern AI coding tools like Claude and Cursor.
You build and finish things. You can take an idea from nothing to shipped without being handed a ticket.
You learn fast. Drop you into an unfamiliar stack or problem and you close the gap quickly.
You fit a flat, fast team. You come up with ideas and act on them without waiting to be told.

What we require

You are enrolled in a bachelor's or master's. Tasks are scoped to your level, so we encourage anyone who fits the above to apply.
A background in engineering or a related technical, quantitative field. Examples include, but are not limited to, computer science, software engineering, software development, software technology, and artificial intelligence and data.

How we hire

An interview, the Atlas People hiring assessment, a coding task, then an offer.

What we offer

We care about the quality of the work and the people doing it. Here is what you can expect:

Lunch, snacks, coffee, whatever you need to do your best work
The AI tools you need to build: Claude, Cursor, and whatever ships next
A central Copenhagen office worth showing up to, right by the lakes
Part of an ecosystem of top Danish entrepreneurs, VC, and PE
Flexible hours: office-first, not clock-first
A front-row seat to applied AI: frontier tools in production, not demos. Adopt first, adopt fast.
