The internship

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. Remote internship with a team based in Philadelphia. The stipend is paid at the end of each month. Expect to work a schedule that overlaps with US Eastern business hours until about noon ET.

What you'll do

Build REST API endpoints and document them in Postman or Swagger. Join the daily 15-minute standup on Google Meet and post a short written update in Slack. Debug failing builds in the GitHub Actions pipeline and note what caused them. 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.

Currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's degree, graduating 2027 or 2028. Available for the full internship period. 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. A GitHub profile with at least two projects you wrote yourself. Good grasp of at least one programming language: Python, Java, JavaScript or C++.

What you get out of it

Certificate and letter of recommendation on completion, plus a pre-placement offer for strong performers. You will ship at least one feature that real users touch before the internship ends. Code review on every pull request, so expect a lot of feedback on naming, tests and structure. Weekly 1:1 with your mentor to go over what went well and what to work on next.
