About the internship

Ferrylight Commerce is hiring a Java Developer Intern for Within 2 weeks. 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. You can work from home anywhere in India. We have no office requirement. Hours are flexible, with one short team call each morning. Please make sure you have a quiet place to work and a solid internet connection.

What you'll do

• Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage.
• Debug failing builds in the GitHub Actions pipeline and note what caused them.
• Profile slow endpoints and suggest fixes, such as adding an index or caching a result.
• Fix bugs from the Jira backlog, starting with small, well-defined tickets.
• Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems.
• Refactor old modules when asked, keeping behaviour the same.
• Raise pull requests on GitHub and respond to code review comments within a day.
• Build REST API endpoints and document them in Postman or Swagger.

Who you are

• Comfortable writing simple SQL queries (SELECT, JOIN, GROUP BY)
• Own laptop with at least 8 GB RAM and a reliable internet connection.

Nice to have

• Knowledge of Linux command line basics.
• Familiarity with Django, Flask, FastAPI or Express.

What you get out of it

• Code review on every pull request, so expect a lot of feedback on naming, tests and structure.
• 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.
• How a production codebase is organised, deployed and monitored.
