About the role

DMR Technologies is a Louisiana-based drone manufacturer developing industry-leading solutions for agriculture, public safety, critical infrastructure, and defense. As a fast-growing technology company, we build much more than drones—we create the software, automation, and internal systems that power every part of our business.

Responsibilities

  • Work directly with company leadership to design and develop internal software that improves efficiency across the organization.
  • Projects move quickly, and your work will be used by real employees and customers.
  • Projects may include:
    • Building features for DMR's custom internal ERP platform
    • Developing web applications using JavaScript and React
    • Creating internal business tools and workflow automation
    • Aiding with website development and content updates
    • Developing customer-facing and internal web applications
    • Building and configuring AI-powered agents and chatbots using platforms such as Open Claw
    • Integrating APIs and third-party software
    • Aiding with light UI/UX improvements and basic graphic design
    • Tracing, testing, and improving existing software solutions

Requirements

No two weeks are exactly alike, and interns are encouraged to contribute ideas and own projects from concept through deployment.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Currently pursuing a degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field
  • Experience with JavaScript
  • Familiarity with React
  • Basic understanding of HTML and CSS
  • Comfortable using Git or other version control systems
  • Strong problem-solving skills
  • Self-motivated and eager to learn new technologies

What We're Looking For

  • The ideal candidate: Enjoys figuring things out independently
  • Learns new technologies quickly
  • Isn't afraid to experiment
  • Can turn ideas into working software
  • Uses AI tools effectively while still understanding the code they're writing
  • Communicates well with both technical and non-technical teammates

Why DMR?

  • You won't spend your summer fixing minor bugs or working on isolated assignments.
  • You'll build software that is actively used throughout the company and have direct exposure to executive leadership, product development, manufacturing, sales, and operations.
  • You'll gain hands-on experience with:
    • Modern JavaScript development
    • React applications
    • AI-assisted software development
    • Business software architecture
    • Rapid product development
    • Startup technology culture
    • Real-world problem solving
