    Description

    We're looking for a tech-savvy human who loves making things work better — and wants to help more people find their way to the sound.

    We're Sound Meditation Presents, a small sound healing business in the middle of becoming a nonprofit. We create large-scale sound bath experiences and online content to help people rest, reset, and remember themselves. We've grown a lot — and our tech has grown a little tangled along the way. We're ready to clean it up, build something beautiful for our students, and bring in someone who genuinely enjoys this kind of work.

    We're looking for a Remote Tech-Savvy Maven Intern to help us with two big things:

    Build a student website (vibe-coding welcome~)

    • Create a clean, simple site for our students that lists all our sound baths in one easy place.
    • Wire each listing up to its sign-up / registration link (Wix, Eventbrite, or wherever it lives) so students can snag their spot in a tap.
    • Make it feel like us — warm, calming, easy to float through.

    Go through our tech and make it better

    • Take a thoughtful look at all the tools we currently use — Wix, Eventbrite, Mailchimp, Canva, Meta Ads, Google Workspace — and help us streamline and connect them.
    • Set up automations and integrations so the manual, repetitive stuff (like registrations flowing into our email tags) just happens.
    • Bring in and experiment with AI tools and workflows that speed up our content, ops, and admin.
    • Research and recommend better (or simpler, or cheaper) tools where ours are falling short — we're genuinely open to leaving some platforms behind.

    This might be a fit if:

    • You're comfortable making changes on your own and don't need to be hand-held — you see something that could be better and you go fix it.
    • You're AI-savvy and love picking up and using new tools quickly.
    • You know what an API is and have some background in digital/systems work.
    • You've got a soft spot for meditation, sound, nervous system regulation, or healing arts — or you're curious to learn.

    Nice to have (but we're flexible):

    • Experience with Mailchimp, Wix, Meta advertising, and Perplexity. If you haven't used all of them, that's okay — we trust you to pick things up fast.

    Details:

    • Remote, volunteer internship (unpaid).
    • About 5–8 hours per week, flexible.
    • Minimum 3-month commitment, with the option to continue if it's a great fit.
    • You'll work directly with Simona and Guy, plus our tiny core team, as we grow into a nonprofit.

    What you get:

    • Real, hands-on experience building and improving the tech backbone of a mission-driven arts/wellness organization mid-transition into a nonprofit.
    • Freedom to experiment, make calls, and actually ship things people will use.
    • Mentorship, a reference letter, portfolio pieces, and potential school credit if approved.

    To apply, send:

    • A short note about who you are and why this sounds fun.
    • 1–3 examples of things you've built, automated, or improved (sites, workflows, tools — anything you're proud of).
    • Optional: any background in meditation, music, psychology, neuroscience, or healing arts.

    Benefits

    When a student says, “Can I get credit for this?” your steps are:

    1. Tell them: “Credit is granted by your school; please talk to your advisor or career services about their internship-for-credit process.”
    2. Ask them to send you any forms their school requires (learning agreement, site supervisor form, evaluation templates).
    3. Review and sign the forms, confirm:
      • Supervisor name and contact (you or a designated team member)
      • Expected duties and learning goals
      • Schedule and total hours
    4. Near the end, complete whatever evaluation the school sends (often a short online form or letter).
