Node.js Developer Intern

Who we are:

Traffic during holiday peaks can reach ten times normal levels, and the platform is built for it. Core hours are 10 to 3, and the rest of the day is flexible.

The internship:

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. This is a remote internship. You will work with our team in Cary, and the stipend is paid monthly in USD. Core hours are 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM US Eastern. A stable internet connection and a backup power option are required.

Responsibilities:

• Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems
• Fix bugs from the Jira backlog, starting with small, well-defined tickets
• 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
• Present a short demo of your work to the team every two weeks
• 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
