Java Developer Intern (Work From Home)

Who we are

We are a small, self-funded team building a booking app for independent salons and tattoo studios. Small accounting firms in Arkansas use our engagement letter and e-signature tool, and most heard about us from a colleague. We started in 2018 and have grown to about 13 people. Laptops are MacBook Pros, and you pick your own editor.

About the role

We need a student who can write clean code, test it and explain what it does. Prior internships are not required. Our team is spread across 8 countries. Headquarters is in Little Rock. You will intern remotely with our team in Little Rock. We have hosted remote interns from several countries before. You will need at least 4 hours of overlap with US Central time. Please make sure you have dependable internet and backup power.

What you'll do

• Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage
• Refactor old modules when asked, keeping behaviour the same
• Fix bugs from the Jira backlog, starting with small, well-defined tickets
• 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
• Write and test backend features in Python or Node.js under the guidance of a senior developer

What we're looking for

• Women wanting to start or restart their career can also apply
• Have a working laptop and a stable internet connection
• Students currently pursuing B.Tech, BE, BCA, MCA, B.Sc or a related degree, or fresh graduates (2026 or 2027 batch)
• Can commit full time, from home, for the whole internship
• 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
• Basic understanding of data structures, OOP and how HTTP requests work

Preferred

• Contributions to an open source project, however small
• Familiarity with Django, Flask, FastAPI or Express
• Knowledge of Linux command line basics

What you'll learn

• You will ship at least one feature that real users touch before the internship ends
• Writing tests is part of the job here, and you will get good at it
