Front End Developer Placement

About JR Software:

Profitable, no outside investors, and no plans to take any. We grow when customers pay us. Our product started as a side project in 2016 and now has a few hundred paying customers, mostly in Uusimaa. Most engineers work remotely and come into the office one week a quarter for planning.

The internship:

Our Growth Engineering team runs the company website, admin panel and a few internal tools. The intern will help on all three. Remote, open to candidates across Finland. Few meetings, lots of written updates. Strong written English is important, since much of our work is async.

Day to day:

• Fix layout bugs across Chrome, Safari and Firefox, and on small mobile screens
• Push code to GitHub through feature branches and pull requests
• Improve page load times by compressing images, lazy loading and trimming unused code
• Update content and plugins on the WordPress marketing site
• Set up basic SEO tags, sitemaps and redirects when new pages go live
• Connect frontend screens to REST APIs and handle loading and error states properly
• Write simple Express.js routes and MongoDB queries for new features
• Build reusable UI components and add them to the shared component library

What we're looking for:

• Based in Finland for the duration of the internship
• Currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's degree, graduating between December 2027 and June 2028
• Eligible to work in Finland
• Available for the full internship period
• Clear written English for Slack updates and ticket comments
• Portfolio, GitHub or live project links showing at least two websites you built
• Hands-on practice with React or Angular through projects or coursework
• Laptop that can run Node.js and VS Code smoothly, and a stable internet connection

Nice to have:

• Basic understanding of SEO and Core Web Vitals
• Projects deployed on Vercel, Netlify or Render

What you get out of it:

• You will push code that goes live on a site with real traffic
• How to work from Figma handoffs and talk to designers about edge cases
• Writing frontend code that other people can read and maintain
• Strong interns get a full-time offer or a paid extension
