The DMC Center has one paid internship opening on the Center for Food Action (CFA) Data Excellence project<\/a> — one of the DMC’s flagship Community Impact Projects<\/a>. This intern will join an active student development team and take on a foundational role: unifying a growing suite of real-world applications into a cohesive, production-ready infrastructure. Read on for project details and how to apply.<\/p>\n

About the Center for Food Action<\/h2>\n

The Center for Food Action<\/a> is a New Jersey nonprofit providing food assistance and support services to thousands of families across Bergen and Passaic counties. CFA operates multiple pantry locations and relies on accurate data to run its operations, report to funders, and serve its clients effectively.<\/p>\n

The DMC Center has been building CFA’s data infrastructure since Phase 1 — a time-series inventory database, a pricing module, a barcode scanner for bulk donation intake, and an analytics dashboard. Phase 2 has expanded that work significantly, with a dedicated team of student interns building applications now actively in use at CFA’s Mahwah and Saddlebrook locations.<\/p>\n

The Existing Team<\/h2>\n

This intern joins a team of three active Phase 2 interns, each working on a distinct application strand:<\/p>\n
