About us

More than 9,000 organisations use our HR and payroll suite, from regional hospitals to school districts. Public sector agencies, utilities and large health systems licence our asset management platform under multi-year contracts.

Overview

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 Stockholm, but nobody is required to come in. Normal working hours, Monday to Friday. We send you a laptop and the accessories you need on day one.

Day to day

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. 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. Build REST API endpoints and document them in Postman or Swagger. Present a short demo of your work to the team every two weeks. Refactor old modules when asked, keeping behaviour the same.

Who can apply

Available for the full internship period. Eligible to work in Sweden. Based in Sweden for the duration of the internship. Able to communicate clearly in written English on Slack and in pull requests.

Own laptop with at least 8 GB RAM and a reliable internet connection. Must be able to overlap at least 4 hours a day with the team's working hours.
