Industrial Placement, Software Engineering

Public sector agencies, utilities and large health systems licence our asset management platform under multi-year contracts. More than 9,000 organisations use our HR and payroll suite, from regional hospitals to school districts. We started in 1994 and have grown to about 390 people. Code review is required on every pull request, and nobody merges their own changes.

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. Our headquarters is in Charlotte, and about a third of the team works remotely from other countries. Remote internship with a team based in Charlotte. The stipend is paid at the end of each month. You will need at least 4 hours of overlap with US Eastern time. We send you a laptop and the accessories you need on day one.

What you'll do:

• Debug failing builds in the GitHub Actions pipeline and note what caused them
• Build REST API endpoints and document them in Postman or Swagger
• Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage
• Query and update data in PostgreSQL or MySQL, including simple migrations
• Join the daily 15-minute standup on Google Meet and post a short written update in Slack
• Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works
• Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems

Requirements:

• Based in Belgium for the duration of the internship
• Available for the full internship period

• Currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's degree, graduating between December 2027 and June 2028
