Django Developer Intern

About the internship

Our Core Services 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. Your day-to-day work will include:

1. Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage

2. Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works.

3. Debug failing builds in the GitHub Actions pipeline and note what caused them

4. Profile slow endpoints and suggest fixes, such as adding an index or caching a result

5. Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems
