Internship Frontend Developer Startup Jobs in New York

About the Company

Made’s mission is to help homeowners save time, money, and stress. It starts with Made Card - a credit card designed specifically for homeowners, with unmatched rewards on mortgage payments, home improvements, utilities, and essential purchases. Each swipe powers a personalized home management platform where users can manage home systems & appliances, stay ahead on upkeep, and get help - from AI-driven guidance to in-person services - exactly when they need it most. By bringing together financial tools, data, and trusted professionals, we give people more control, more savings, and more time to enjoy the place they call home.

We’re partnered with leading national players in the residential homeownership space - from mortgage lenders to home services providers - embedding Made into the key moments of the homeowner journey. These partnerships let us reach millions of households across the country and deliver meaningful benefits to homeowners.

Backed by top investors like Village Global, Jump Capital, Recharge Capital, and Soma Capital, our leadership team brings deep fintech, mortgage, and credit card experience from Ramp, Bain Capital, JP Morgan Chase, American Express, and Morgan Stanley. We’re building the financial and engagement platform for the next generation of homeowners - one that puts the homeowner at the center, and redefines what it means to feel at home.
