Backend Development Intern

About the work from home internship

Our Core Services team is five engineers working fully remote across two time zones. The intern picks up small backend tickets first and moves to bigger features once comfortable. Your day-to-day work will include:

1. Build REST API endpoints and document them in Postman or Swagger

2. Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems.

3. Debug failing builds in the GitHub Actions pipeline and note what caused them.

4. Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage

5. Query and update data in PostgreSQL or MySQL, including simple migrations.

6. Fix bugs from the Jira backlog, starting with small, well-defined tickets

7. Present a short demo of your work to the team every two weeks.

8. Write and test backend features in Python or Node.js under the guidance of a senior developer.
