YC Startup Internship Expo

YC is turning its Dogpatch HQ into a AI/startup internship expo for the most ambitious students in the Bay. On Saturday August 15th, we’re inviting students to spend the day meeting founders and engineers from over 50 of YC’s top startups. Learn how the best AI companies actually operate, and explore what it’s like to work on AI agents, robotics, biotech, defense tech, developer tools, infrastructure, and entirely new kinds of products enabled by AI. Things to explore at the event — We’re prioritizing students looking for internships or full-time roles — including Summer 2027 internships, Fall/Spring co-ops or semester-off internships, and new grad positions. If you’re: …you should apply. Lastly, this is by acceptance-only. We’re looking for students who are unusually technical, creative, intense, curious, or obsessed with building things. If you want to see where AI is actually going over the next few years — not just talk about it online — this is the highest concentration of AI-forward startups, engineers, and founders you’ll find in one place. We look forward to meeting you where it’s happening. As a final note: we are unable to sponsor travel, so please only apply if you are certain to be in the SF Bay Area on August 15th.
