Python Developer Intern

We run a marketplace with over 300,000 active sellers and fulfillment centres in four regions. We're looking for a Python Developer Intern. 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. We are headquartered in Cologne and have been hiring remotely since 2020. The internship is fully remote. Interns join our Cologne team on daily calls and get a named mentor. Core hours are 10:00 to 15:00 CET.

• Present a short demo of your work to the team every two weeks.
• 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.
• Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage.
