About Farrow Data Systems

Farrow Data Systems is a managed services provider with 470 employees, supporting more than 1,500 client organisations across India. We operate two 24/7 network operations centres and a security operations centre, staffed in three shifts.

Overview

We need a student who can write clean code, test it and explain what it does. Prior internships are not required. Remote within India. The team meets in New Delhi once a quarter, travel covered. Most of our work is async, and meetings are kept short. A stable internet connection and a backup power option are required.

Day to day

• Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage
• Refactor old modules when asked, keeping behaviour the same
• Build REST API endpoints and document them in Postman or Swagger
• 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

What we're looking for

• Can start right away or within the next two weeks
• Women wanting to start or restart their career can also apply
• Comfortable writing simple SQL queries (SELECT, JOIN, GROUP BY)
• Available for 30 to 40 hours a week for the full internship period
• Good grasp of at least one programming language: Python, Java, JavaScript or C++

Bonus points

• Any previous internship, hackathon or freelance coding work
• Familiarity with Django, Flask, FastAPI or Express

What you'll learn

• You will ship at least one feature that real users touch before the internship ends
• Weekly 1:1 with your mentor to go over what went well and what to work on next
• Code review on every pull request, so expect a lot of feedback on naming, tests and structure
• How a production codebase is organised, deployed and monitored

Duration: 6 months

Start date: Within 2 weeks

Stipend: ₹30,000 - ₹39,000/month
