• 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
• Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works

Who can apply

• Based in the US for the duration of the internship
• A GitHub profile with at least two projects you wrote yourself
