Engineering Intern, Platform

Incident response is a big part of the work: ransomware recovery, business email compromise and forensic investigations. We're looking for an Engineering Intern, Platform. 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 role is fully remote within the US. Normal working hours, Monday to Friday. We talk mostly in Slack and hop on quick calls when something needs discussing.

What you will do

Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage. Join the daily 15-minute standup on Google Meet and post a short written update in Slack. Write and test backend features in Python or Node.js under the guidance of a senior developer. Debug failing builds in the GitHub Actions pipeline and note what caused them. Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems.

About you

Available 40 hours a week for the full internship. Based in the US for the duration of the internship. Good grasp of at least one programming language: Python, Java, JavaScript or C++. Able to communicate clearly in written English on Slack and in pull requests. Must be able to overlap at least 4 hours a day with the team's working hours.
