CueLABS™ Internships
CueLABS™ interns ship production code to live, MIT-licensed products — Apparule, Expendit and Upstat — under the published engineering standard, with a supervisor and a real review bar. The git log is the CV. Each internship runs under a signed Internship Agreement; this page summarises it, the agreement governs.
The shape of an internship
- Role-based. Interns are engaged into a specific role (for example Backend Engineer) with defined duties: shipping features, reviewing code, collaborating across the team, documenting, and working agile ceremonies (sprint planning, standups).
- Three or six months. Internships run for a three (3) or six (6) month term from the commencement date, whichever the agreement states, ending automatically at term unless renewed.
- Unpaid, data covered. Internships are unpaid — no salary, wages or hourly compensation — and create no employment relationship. Cuesoft provides a monthly data allowance of ₦20,000 to cover internet costs for remote work throughout the internship.
- On Discord. Intern day-to-day happens in the CueLABS™ Discord community — standup updates, cohort coordination and collaboration.
- Supervised. Every intern works under a designated supervisor, with feedback through reviews and the cadence in performance reviews.
Obligations that come with it
- Confidentiality (NDA). The agreement carries a full NDA over source code, business plans, client information and everything else non-public. It survives the internship. See confidentiality.
- Intellectual property. Work product created during the internship is assigned to Cuesoft. For the open-source products, Cuesoft publishes that work under MIT — which is how interns end up with a public, attributable commit history under their own GitHub identity. See intellectual property.
- Ending it. Either side may end the internship with seven (7) days' written notice. On exit, return company property and cease using company-provided access and credentials.
After the internship
The pathway — learn at CueTA™, build at CueLABS™, go forward through CueHIRE™ — is real, and interns with strong records are recommended into client engagements. Nothing here promises employment, a placement or a salary; the record speaks and clients decide.
