Django Developer Intern

About us:

Headquartered in Cape Coral since 2010, the company now sells in 40 countries and supports customers in 11 languages. More than 9,000 organisations use our HR and payroll suite, from regional hospitals to school districts. We started in 2010 and have grown to about 220 people. Most engineers work remotely and come into the office one week a quarter for planning.

The internship:

The intern will work on internal tools and APIs used by our support and operations staff. Daily standup on Google Meet, everything else async on Slack. The internship is fully remote. Interns join our Cape Coral team on daily calls and get a named mentor. Expect to work a schedule that overlaps with US Eastern business hours until about noon ET. We use Slack, Notion and Google Meet. Cameras on for team calls.

What you'll do:

Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems. Join the daily 15-minute standup on Google Meet and post a short written update in Slack. Query and update data in PostgreSQL or MySQL, including simple migrations. 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.

What we're looking for:

Available for at least 30 hours a week, work from home. Final-year students or fresh graduates of BSCS, BSSE, BBA or a related program. Able to communicate clearly in written English on Slack and in pull requests. Own laptop with at least 8 GB RAM and a reliable internet connection. Basic understanding of data structures, OOP and how HTTP requests work.

What you'll learn:

Code review on every pull request, so expect a lot of feedback on naming, tests and structure. You will ship at least one feature that real users touch before the internship ends. Weekly 1:1 with your mentor to go over what went well and what to work on next. How a production codebase is organised, deployed and monitored.
