Get Access To All JobsHi, We're Centerfield!
Supercharged customer acquisition. Centerfield delivers outcome-based digital marketing solutions and personalized omnichannel experiences for the world’s leading brands. Powered by our proprietary Dugout platform, Centerfield acquires customers at scale for leading residential service, insurance, e-commerce, and B2B brands. Centerfield’s digital experiences and digital brands, such as Business.com and BroadbandNow.com, reach more than 150 million in-market shoppers annually. Centerfield is headquartered in Silicon Beach and is proud to be recognized by Built in LA as a Best Place to Work in Los Angeles.
The Opportunity...
As a Frontend Engineer Intern at Centerfield, you'll join our engineering team building intuitive, high-performance consumer-facing web interfaces used by millions of shoppers. You'll ship real features - building new applications from scratch and extending or redesigning existing products, contributing to high-traffic sites like Savings.com.
Our team practices AI-first development: engineers act as architects who direct AI agents, custom skills, and automated workflows to deliver production software. You'll learn to go beyond out-of-the-box tools like Claude Code or Codex - building custom agents, domain knowledge systems, and review processes that turn AI into a force multiplier. We care less about clever code and more about delivering business value.
How You'll Contribute...
- Build and ship consumer-facing web applications and features, from greenfield builds to redesigns of existing high-traffic sites
- Develop responsive, accessible front-end experiences using React, Next.js, and TypeScript, integrating seamlessly with back-end APIs (Node.js, Java)
- Use and extend our custom AI development harness: agents, skills, and workflow commands to accelerate delivery
- Experiment with new ways to apply AI agents to real engineering problems, and share what works with the team
- Collaborate with product, design, and engineering to turn business goals into shipped features
- Participate in the full software development lifecycle: design, build, review, ship, iterate
What We're Looking For...
- Genuine curiosity and open-mindedness about AI-driven development. You actively experiment with AI agents and tools, and can show us something cool you've built with them
- Solid understanding of modern front-end development: React, JavaScript/TypeScript, HTML5, and CSS/Tailwind
- Exposure to frameworks and runtimes like Next.js and Node.js
- Understanding of APIs and how front-ends talk to back-end services
- Knowledge of software fundamentals: source control, debugging
- Rising seniors or new graduates (update year as needed)
- Local to Playa Vista HQ and willing to come into the office 3 days a week
- Pursuing a degree in Computer Science or a relevant field
Bonus Points!
- A portfolio, repo, or demo of something you built primarily with AI agents — bonus if you customized the workflow (custom agents, skills, prompt systems, MCP servers, evals)
- Experience with cloud platforms (GCP or AWS)
- Understanding of REST APIs and web performance
- Exposure to Vercel, Docker, or modern deployment tooling
Intern Life at Centerfield…
- This is a hybrid position, and employees are expected to work in our Playa Vista, CA office every Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday.
- Outside patio overlooking Playa Vista + cabanas, firepits & working grills.
- Breakroom supplied with games, couches, workout equipment + weekly in-office exercise classes hosted by professional instructors (yoga, kickboxing & circuit training).
- Paid charity and volunteer days (local mentor programs, adopt a pet, beach cleanup, etc.).
- Unlimited free snacks and drinks around the office!
- Monthly happy hours, catered Thursday lunches.
- Award-winning culture & unprecedented team spirit (featured in LA Business Journal & Built In LA Best Places to Work).
- Monthly team outings (ball games, casino night, hikes, etc.).
- Career growth – we enjoy promoting from within

Get Access To All JobsFrontend Engineer CPT: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Frontend Engineer role qualify for CPT?
Yes, if your program includes coursework in web development, software engineering, or human-computer interaction and the employer's role directly extends that curriculum. Your DSO makes the final determination. Roles focused purely on UI design without a coding component may require additional documentation to establish the academic connection.
Can I work full time as a Frontend Engineer on CPT?
Full-time CPT, defined as 20 or more hours per week, is allowed but carries a significant consequence: 12 or more months of full-time CPT eliminates your OPT eligibility entirely. Part-time CPT under 20 hours per week has no such limit. Many students take full-time CPT roles only during summer semesters to preserve their OPT.
What documents does a Frontend Engineer CPT employer need from me?
Your employer needs your updated I-20 with the CPT authorization endorsed by your DSO, showing the specific employer name, role title, and authorized dates. Some employers also request your visa stamp and I-94 record. You do not file anything with USCIS for CPT, authorization lives entirely in your I-20.
How do I find Frontend Engineer jobs open to CPT students?
Search Migrate Mate, which filters roles by employers with a documented history of hiring F-1 students on work authorization. Prioritize companies that have previously sponsored CPT or OPT placements in software engineering roles, since those teams typically understand the I-20 authorization process and won't delay your start date waiting for HR to research compliance.
Does CPT for a Frontend Engineer role affect my future H-1B eligibility?
CPT itself does not affect H-1B visa eligibility, but how you use it does. If you exhaust OPT eligibility by accumulating 12 or more months of full-time CPT, you lose the post-graduation work period that most H-1B sponsors require to complete a cap-subject filing. Keep your full-time CPT under 12 months total to protect that pathway.
