Industrial Placement, Software Engineering

About us:

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.

Overview:

We need a student who can write clean code, test it and explain what it does. Prior internships are not required. This is a remote internship. You will work with our team in Charlotte, and the stipend is paid monthly in euros. Expect to work a schedule that overlaps with US Eastern business hours until about noon ET. We send you a laptop and the accessories you need on day one.

Responsibilities:

• Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage.
• Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works.
• Query and update data in PostgreSQL or MySQL, including simple migrations.
• Raise pull requests on GitHub and respond to code review comments within a day.
• Fix bugs from the Jira backlog, starting with small, well-defined tickets.
• Refactor old modules when asked, keeping behaviour the same.

What we're looking for:

• Based in Belgium for the duration of the internship.
• Currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's degree, graduating 2026, 2027 or 2028.
• Eligible to work in Belgium.
• Available for the full internship period.
• A GitHub profile with at least two projects you wrote yourself.
• Own laptop with at least 8 GB RAM and a reliable internet connection.
• Able to communicate clearly in written English on Slack and in pull requests.

What you get out of it:

• Weekly 1:1 with your mentor to go over what went well and what to work on next.
• Writing tests is part of the job here, and you will get good at it.
