Python Engineering Intern

Our website and apps help renters search listings, schedule tours and submit applications. Support shifts are shared, so engineers spend a few hours a quarter answering customer tickets.

Overview:

The intern will work on internal tools and APIs used by our support and operations staff. Daily standup on Google Meet, everything else async on Slack. Remote, open to candidates across the US. Standard office hours, Monday to Friday, with flexibility around them. We use Slack, Notion and Google Meet. Cameras on for team calls.

What you'll do:

• Present a short demo of your work to the team every two weeks
• Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works
• Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage
• Debug failing builds in the GitHub Actions pipeline and note what caused them
• Build REST API endpoints and document them in Postman or Swagger
