Node.js Developer Intern

Hobbyists in Canada make up most of our customers, and many have been buying since the beginning.

The internship:

This is a hands-on coding internship. Most of the work is in Python and Node.js, with some SQL and a bit of shell scripting. The company is based in Halifax, Canada. The team is spread across multiple countries. The internship is fully remote. Interns join our Halifax team on daily calls and get a named mentor. You will need at least 4 hours of overlap with US Eastern time. We use Slack, Notion and Google Meet. Cameras on for team calls.

What you'll do:

• Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage
• Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems
• Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works
• Write and test backend features in Python or Node.js under the guidance of a senior developer
• Fix bugs from the Jira backlog, starting with small, well-defined tickets
• Build REST API endpoints and document them in Postman or Swagger
• Profile slow endpoints and suggest fixes, such as adding an index or caching a result

Requirements:

• Are able to join within 15 days
• Have a working laptop and a stable internet connection
