Python Developer Intern

School districts licence our reading and math curriculum for grades K through 8. We started in 2012 and have grown to about 90 people.

About the role

We need a student who can write clean code, test it and explain what it does. Prior internships are not required. This is a remote internship. You will work with our team in Gothenburg, and the stipend is paid monthly in Indian rupees. Core hours are 10:00 to 15:00 CET. You will need a reliable internet connection and a quiet place to work.

Responsibilities

• Refactor old modules when asked, keeping behaviour the same.
• Raise pull requests on GitHub and respond to code review comments within a day.
• Query and update data in PostgreSQL or MySQL, including simple migrations.
• Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage.
• Profile slow endpoints and suggest fixes, such as adding an index or caching a result.

What we're looking for

• Available for a full-time (work from home) internship for the full duration.
• Students currently pursuing B.Tech, BE, BCA, MCA, B.Sc or a related degree, or fresh graduates (2026 or 2027 batch)
• Available for 30 to 40 hours a week for the full internship period.
• Own laptop with at least 8 GB RAM and a reliable internet connection.
• Pursuing a B.Tech, B.E., BCA, MCA, BS Computer Science or a related degree, graduating in 2026 or 2027.
• Basic understanding of data structures, OOP and how HTTP requests work.
• Some experience with Git, even if only on college or personal projects.
• Good grasp of at least one programming language: Python, Java, JavaScript or C++.

Nice to have

• Exposure to Docker or a cloud platform such as AWS or GCP.
• Any previous internship, hackathon or freelance coding work.
• Contributions to an open source project, however small.

What you get out of it

• Weekly 1:1 with your mentor to go over what went well and what to work on next.
• How a production codebase is organised, deployed and monitored.
• Writing tests is part of the job here, and you will get good at it.
• Code review on every pull request, so expect a lot of feedback on naming, tests and structure.
