Backend Engineering Intern (Summer 2027)

About us:

No call center and no offshore help desk. When clients call, one of us picks up.

About the role:

Day to day:

• Debug failing builds in the GitHub Actions pipeline and note what caused them
• Query and update data in PostgreSQL or MySQL, including simple migrations
• Fix bugs from the Jira backlog, starting with small, well-defined tickets
• Raise pull requests on GitHub and respond to code review comments within a day
• Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage

• Able to communicate clearly in written English on Slack and in pull requests

What you'll learn:

• Weekly 1:1 with your mentor to go over what went well and what to work on next
• Writing tests is part of the job here, and you will get good at it
• Certificate and letter of recommendation on completion, plus a pre-placement offer for strong performers
