Java Developer Intern

Our bench is in the back of a strip-mall storefront, where we image laptops and swap failed drives. We started in 2022 and have grown to about 37 people. After-hours on-call comes around every fourth week.

About the role:

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. Our team is spread across 9 countries. Headquarters is in London. You will intern remotely with our team in London. We have hosted remote interns from several countries before. Working hours overlap with UK business hours.

Responsibilities:

• Present a short demo of your work to the team every two weeks.
• Refactor old modules when asked, keeping behaviour the same.
• 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.
• Query and update data in PostgreSQL or MySQL, including simple migrations.
• Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems.
• Build REST API endpoints and document them in Postman or Swagger.
• Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage.
