DSA is currently building a video game that will teach a younger audience about data science and the importance of RDS. We’re looking for creative and talented 2D Game Design Interns to join our game development team. As a 2D Game Design Intern, you will work on creating game assets such as characters, environments, and other visual elements that enhance the player experience. You will assist in the creation of character and environment concepts, designs, and animations, and you’ll develop and refine 2D/3D assets.
We’re also looking for a Programming Intern to join our game development team. You will work closely with DSA’s core team to design and implement game mechanics, develop game features, and ensure the game's technical performance and stability. You will assist in the development of game mechanics and features using Godot, and you will write code in C#/GDScript. This is a great opportunity to gain hands-on experience in a professional game development environment.
For the Website/Front-End Development Intern role, we are looking for someone to assist with our website development projects. You should have experience in front-end development, particularly with React, HTML, and CSS. You will assist in migrating the DSA website from Webflow to React; develop responsive web pages using React, HTML, and CSS; and collaborate with designers and developers to integrate UI/UX designs.
