Engineering Intern, Platform

Who we are:

We run a marketplace with over 300,000 active sellers and fulfillment centers in four regions. Our engineering, trust and safety, and customer support teams work across offices in Phoenix and several other countries. Product reviews happen on Thursdays, with demos of whatever shipped that week.

About the role:

We need a student who can write clean code, test it and explain what it does. Prior internships are not required. You can work from home anywhere in the US. We have no office requirement. Normal working hours, Monday to Friday. We use Slack, Notion and Google Meet. Cameras on for team calls.

Responsibilities:

• Debug failing builds in the GitHub Actions pipeline and note what caused them.
• Fix bugs from the Jira backlog, starting with small, well-defined tickets.
• Raise pull requests on GitHub and respond to code review comments within a day.
• Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems.
• Present a short demo of your work to the team every two weeks.

What we're looking for:

• Available 40 hours a week for the full internship.

• Contributions to an open source project, however small.
• Knowledge of Linux command line basics.

What you get out of it:

• You will ship at least one feature that real users touch before the internship ends.
