Python Engineering Intern

Since 2012, the company has sold practice management software to dental and veterinary clinics in the US. We're looking for a Python Engineering Intern. Our Platform team is five engineers working fully remote across two time zones. The intern picks up small backend tickets first and moves to bigger features once comfortable. You can work from home anywhere in the US. We have no office requirement. We do not have many meetings. Most updates happen in writing.

What you will do:

• Write and test backend features in Python or Node.js under the guidance of a senior developer.
• Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works.
• Fix bugs from the Jira backlog, starting with small, well-defined tickets.
• Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage.
• Refactor old modules when asked, keeping behaviour the same.

Requirements:

• Currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's program, graduating between December 2027 and June 2028.
• Available 40 hours a week for the full internship.
