Node.js Developer Intern (Remote)

About Ferryford Labs:

Our engineering group is split into roughly 60 product teams, each owning its services end to end, with on-call shared across time zones. Headquartered in Jerusalem since 2002, the company now sells in 40 countries and supports customers in 11 languages.

The internship:

We need a student who can write clean code, test it and explain what it does. Prior internships are not required. The internship is fully remote. Interns join our Jerusalem team on daily calls and get a named mentor. Working hours overlap with Central European Time. Strong written English is important, since much of our work is async.

• Present a short demo of your work to the team every two weeks
• 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
• Refactor old modules when asked, keeping behaviour the same
• Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems
• Query and update data in PostgreSQL or MySQL, including simple migrations
