Django Developer Intern

About us:

Planning is done in RightCapital and portfolios are managed in Orion.

About the role:

Our Internal Tools 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. This is a remote internship. You will work with our team in New York City, and the stipend is paid monthly in USD. Core hours are 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM US Eastern. Please make sure you have a quiet place to work and a solid internet connection.

Day to day:

Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage. Build REST API endpoints and document them in Postman or Swagger. Query and update data in PostgreSQL or MySQL, including simple migrations. Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems. Profile slow endpoints and suggest fixes, such as adding an index or caching a result. Debug failing builds in the GitHub Actions pipeline and note what caused them. Raise pull requests on GitHub and respond to code review comments within a day. Join the daily 15-minute standup on Google Meet and post a short written update in Slack.

Who can apply:

Available for at least 30 hours a week from home. Final-year students or recent graduates of BSc in CSE, EEE, BBA or a related subject. Own laptop and a reliable internet connection. Based anywhere in Bangladesh. Must be able to overlap at least 4 hours a day with the team's working hours. A GitHub profile with at least two projects you wrote yourself. Available for 30 to 40 hours a week for the full internship period.

Nice to have:

Exposure to Docker or a cloud platform such as AWS or GCP. Contributions to an open source project, however small. Any previous internship, hackathon or freelance coding work.
