Industrial Placement, Software Engineering

About us:

Our threat intelligence team tracks ransomware groups and publishes research used across the industry. Founded in 1999, we now have 390 employees. Lab time is built into the schedule, not squeezed in after hours.

The internship:

The intern will work on internal tools and APIs used by our support and operations staff. Daily standup on Google Meet, everything else async on Slack. Remote position. Most of the team is in Poznań, but nobody is required to come in. Flexible hours with a daily team call in the morning. Most communication happens in Slack, with short video calls when needed.

Day to day:

Build REST API endpoints and document them in Postman or Swagger. Query and update data in PostgreSQL or MySQL, including simple migrations. 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. Profile slow endpoints and suggest fixes, such as adding an index or caching a result. Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works. Fix bugs from the Jira backlog, starting with small, well-defined tickets.

Requirements:

Currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's degree, graduating 2028. Eligible to work in Poland. Available for the full internship period. A GitHub profile with at least two projects you wrote yourself. Must be able to overlap at least 4 hours a day with the team's working hours. Some experience with Git, even if only on college or personal projects. Available for 30 to 40 hours a week for the full internship period. Comfortable writing simple SQL queries (SELECT, JOIN, GROUP BY).

Bonus points:

Competitive programming practice on LeetCode, Codeforces or CodeChef. Contributions to an open source project, however small. Any previous internship, hackathon or freelance coding work.
