Django Developer Intern

About Colombo Cloud

Annual releases gave way to two-week sprints years ago, and the platform now handles over 200 million API calls a day. Product, engineering and support teams work out of offices in Colombo, Western Province and two nearshore delivery centres. Code review is required on every pull request, and nobody merges their own changes.

Overview

We need a student who can write clean code, test it and explain what it does. Prior internships are not required. Remote, open to candidates across Sri Lanka. Monday to Friday, regular working hours, flexible start and finish. We use Slack, Notion and Google Meet. Cameras on for team calls.

• Fix bugs from the Jira backlog, starting with small, well-defined tickets
• Query and update data in PostgreSQL or MySQL, including simple migrations
