Ramp internships: when they open and how to apply

Ramp, the corporate card and finance software company, puts nearly all of its interns in person at its New York headquarters. Its interviews are practical by design: Ramp calls them open-book and focused on how you'd solve real problems.

Internships and programs at Ramp

The early-career programs it runs for students and recent graduates, by the names it uses for them.

Software Engineer Internship
Engineering interns go into Frontend, Backend, and full-stack roles. Frontend interns work in TypeScript and React with Ramp's in-house design system. Summer internships run 10 weeks; co-ops run 16.
Product Design, Brand Design, and Data internships
Ramp's Emerging Talent program also lists intern roles in product design, brand design, data, and legal. Same in-person New York model, with mentorship and regular feedback.
University Grad roles
Graduating students are hired into full-time roles such as University Grad, Customer Experience Associate in New York. New grads should be able to start within six to twelve months of applying.

When Ramp posts internships

Ramp hires interns for more than one term. Summer engineering listings have appeared during fall recruiting, and the Summer 2026 posting noted that hiring for Fall 2026 internships would start in January.

Ramp says its recruiting process takes three to four weeks from first contact, which is fast. That speed cuts both ways: seats can fill quickly once a listing is live.

These are patterns from recent cycles, not published dates, and they shift. The reliable signal is the posting itself: Trakker is an internship tracker that reads Ramp’s careers site directly and can email you within minutes of a new role appearing.

Who can apply

Interns must be enrolled at an accredited four-year university and returning to school after the internship. The Summer 2026 engineering posting asked for a B.S. or higher in computer science or another technical field with a 2026 to 2028 graduation date, plus a record of shipping products or a portfolio of side projects.

Internships are based mainly in New York, and summer interns get a housing stipend. New grads must be finishing a degree at an accredited four-year university.

The interview process

Ramp says its process includes technical assessments, phone screens, and further evaluations, with the number of rounds depending on the role. Interviews assess technical skill, collaboration, communication, and problem-solving.

The format is the unusual part. Ramp describes an open-book, practical approach, so expect problems closer to building a small feature than reciting algorithms, and be ready to explain your trade-offs.

Tips for applying to Ramp

  • Show shipped work. Ramp's postings ask for a track record of shipping features or a side-project portfolio, so link live projects.
  • Practice building with docs open, since that's how Ramp says it interviews.
  • Plan to spend the summer in New York. Ramp emphasizes in-person work and bases nearly all interns at headquarters.
