SDE Intern

We run one of the larger SaaS platforms for commercial insurance carriers, processing millions of policy transactions a year.

About the role

Our Integrations 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 will intern remotely with our team in Nashville. We have hosted remote interns from several countries before. You will need at least 4 hours of overlap with US Central time. You get a company laptop and a headset before you start.

Day to day

• Profile slow endpoints and suggest fixes, such as adding an index or caching a result
• Build REST API endpoints and document them in Postman or Swagger
• 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
• Write and test backend features in Python or Node.js under the guidance of a senior developer

Requirements

• Final-year students or fresh graduates of BSCS, BSSE, BBA or a related program
• Have a working laptop and a stable internet connection, ideally with a UPS backup

• A GitHub profile with at least two projects you wrote yourself
• Some experience with Git, even if only on college or personal projects
• Comfortable writing simple SQL queries (SELECT, JOIN, GROUP BY)
• Must be able to overlap at least 4 hours a day with the team's working hours
• Basic understanding of data structures, OOP and how HTTP requests work

Preferred

• Competitive programming practice on LeetCode, Codeforces or CodeChef
