Who we are
Public sector agencies, utilities and large health systems licence our asset management platform under multi-year contracts. Most engineers work remotely and come into the office one week a quarter for planning.
About the role
Our Core Services team is five engineers working fully remote across two time zones. The intern picks up small backend tickets first and moves to bigger features once comfortable. Our team is spread across 6 countries. Headquarters is in Nashville. The internship is fully remote. Interns join our Nashville team on daily calls and get a named mentor. You will need at least 4 hours of overlap with US Central time.
Day to day
- Write and test backend features in Python or Node.js under the guidance of a senior developer
- Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage
- Query and update data in PostgreSQL or MySQL, including simple migrations
- Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works
- Build REST API endpoints and document them in Postman or Swagger
- Debug failing builds in the GitHub Actions pipeline and note what caused them
- Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems
- Profile slow endpoints and suggest fixes, such as adding an index or caching a result

- Must be able to overlap at least 4 hours a day with the team's working hours
Preferred
- Competitive programming practice on LeetCode, Codeforces or CodeChef

What you get out of it
