Full-Stack & Mobile Engineering Intern

Summer 2026  ·  10–12 Weeks ·  Junior, Senior, or Graduate Student Welcome

React Native /  Go/ React/ Mobile Testing/ Cloud Platforms

iAdeptive's Full-Stack & Mobile Engineering Interns build real features in real apps used by real federal users. You will work directly alongside our Lead Full-Stack Engineer — writing React Native components, connecting mobile apps to Go backend services via REST APIs, and owning the testing discipline that keeps federal mobile applications reliable and accessible. This is a full-stack mobile role: front to back, feature to release.

 

🎯  WHAT YOU'RE SIGNING UP FOR

Real federal mobile programs. Real code reviews. You will touch production code — React Native screens, Go API endpoints, and automated test suites — using Git, Docker, and cloud platforms as standard tools. Section 508 accessibility and mobile security are real requirements here, not optional polish. The bar is higher than a class project. That's the point.

 

⚙️  HANDS-ON FROM DAY ONE

Your first React Native component is assigned by end of Week 2. Your code gets reviewed by senior engineers. You ship something real — tested, accessible, and merged — before Week 10. You will collaborate with designers and engineers on user experience, not just write code in isolation.

 

📈  RETURN OFFER PIPELINE

Top-performing interns are considered for full-time roles as iAdeptive grows.

 

What You Will Work On

 

  • Build React Native screens, components, and navigation flows for federal mobile applications targeting iOS and Android
  • Develop and maintain React web components integrated with the mobile application ecosystem
  • Contribute Go backend services — REST API endpoints, middleware, and data handlers — supporting mobile app functionality
  • Connect mobile apps to backend systems using REST APIs; understand and debug the full request-response lifecycle
  • Write and maintain unit tests, integration tests, and end-to-end tests using Jest, Detox, or equivalent mobile testing frameworks
  • Validate Section 508 / WCAG 2.1 accessibility requirements across mobile screens and web components
  • Support data processing tasks and backend logic in Go services
  • Work with Git, Docker, and cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure) as part of the standard engineering workflow
  • Collaborate with designers and engineers to improve user experience and interface quality
  • Participate in code reviews, debugging sessions, and team technical discussions
  • Present your work at a final intern demo — to iAdeptive leadership and, where appropriate, to federal clients

 

What We're Looking For

 

  • Currently pursuing a BS, MS, or CS-adjacent degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field
  • Strong JavaScript or TypeScript skills — you have built something with it beyond tutorials
  • Exposure to React or React Native — coursework, personal projects, or open-source contributions
  • Familiarity with REST APIs and how frontend and mobile apps communicate with backend services
  • Basic familiarity with Go or willingness to learn it fast — you are comfortable picking up new languages
  • Working knowledge of Git and Docker — standard tools you are already using
  • Some experience writing tests — unit tests at minimum — and an understanding of why they matter
  • Good debugging and analytical skills; ability to communicate clearly about what is blocked and why

 

Bonus Points

 

  • Shipped a React Native or Flutter app — even a side project — to a device or app store
  • Go experience: REST APIs, concurrency, CLI tooling, or backend services built with Go
  • Experience with mobile testing frameworks: Jest, Detox, Maestro, or Appium
  • Familiarity with mobile accessibility testing tools (Accessibility Inspector, TalkBack, NVDA)
  • Experience with CI/CD tools: GitHub Actions, Bitrise, Fastlane, or equivalent
  • Exposure to cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and cloud-based development workflows
  • Interest in federal technology, public sector applications, or mission-driven engineering
  • Graduate students with mobile, distributed systems, or backend research experience especially encouraged

 

10–12 Week Intern Journey

 

Weeks

Focus & Deliverables

Weeks 1–2

Onboarding, codebase orientation, mobile app architecture walkthrough, dev environment setup (Git, Docker, cloud). First React Native component assigned by end of Week 2.

Weeks 3–5

Core feature development — React Native screens, Go API endpoints, and initial test coverage. Daily standups, weekly 1:1 with Lead Full-Stack Engineer.

Weeks 6–8

Iteration, integration, and testing — unit and integration tests, Section 508 accessibility validation, REST API debugging, and code reviews.

Weeks 9–10

Feature completion, test suite stabilization, and intern demo preparation. Code merged to main branch. Written technical summary delivered.

Weeks 11–12

Demo day presentation to iAdeptive leadership. Return offer conversations for top performers. Knowledge transfer and handoff documentation.

 

Why iAdeptive

 

Federal mobile applications are some of the most demanding to build correctly — Section 508 compliance, security controls, and reliability requirements that commercial apps rarely face. If you want to graduate knowing how production mobile engineering actually works — front to back, test to deploy — this is the internship. And if you are great, there is a clear path to come back full time.
