The internship

We need a student who can write clean code, test it and explain what it does. Prior internships are not required. This role is fully remote within India. We keep meetings to a minimum and work mostly async. Good written English matters here, since most updates are written.

Responsibilities

• Refactor old modules when asked, keeping behaviour the same
• Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage
• Write and test backend features in Python or Node.js under the guidance of a senior developer
• Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works
• Fix bugs from the Jira backlog, starting with small, well-defined tickets
• Debug failing builds in the GitHub Actions pipeline and note what caused them
• Join the daily 15-minute standup on Google Meet and post a short written update in Slack

Requirements

• Can commit full time, from home, for the whole internship
• Can start immediately or within two weeks
• Women wanting to start or restart their career can also apply

• Must be able to overlap at least 4 hours a day with the team's working hours
• Pursuing a B.Tech, B.E., BCA, MCA, BS Computer Science or a related degree, graduating in 2026, 2027 or 2028
