Django Developer Intern

About Pellham Wealth Management:

Headquartered in Karachi, the company runs operations centres in Sindh and two other locations. Regulatory oversight is constant, and the compliance department is one of the largest in the company. Still family owned, 57 years on. Quarter-end is busy, and everyone helps with client review prep.

About the role:

This is a hands-on coding internship. Most of the work is in Python and Node.js, with some SQL and a bit of shell scripting. You can work from home anywhere in Pakistan. We have no office requirement. Normal business hours, Monday to Friday, with some flexibility. Please make sure you have a quiet place to work and a solid internet connection.

What you'll do:

• 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.
• Profile slow endpoints and suggest fixes, such as adding an index or caching a result.
• Refactor old modules when asked, keeping behaviour the same.
• Join the daily 15-minute standup on Google Meet and post a short written update in Slack.
• Present a short demo of your work to the team every two weeks.
• Query and update data in PostgreSQL or MySQL, including simple migrations.
• 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.
• Based anywhere in Pakistan.
• Able to communicate clearly in written English on Slack and in pull requests.
• A GitHub profile with at least two projects you wrote yourself.
• Own laptop with at least 8 GB RAM and a reliable internet connection.
• Must be able to overlap at least 4 hours a day with the team's working hours.

What you get out of it:

• 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.
