Software Developer Intern

Lopez Business Technology provides managed IT for offices of 10 to 200 users: help desk, patching, backups, Microsoft 365 and firewall management. We're looking for a Software Developer Intern. We need a student who can write clean code, test it and explain what it does. Prior internships are not required. Remote position. Most of the team is in Little Rock, but nobody is required to come in.

What you will do

Profile slow endpoints and suggest fixes, such as adding an index or caching a result. Write and test backend features in Python or Node.js under the guidance of a senior developer. Debug failing builds in the GitHub Actions pipeline and note what caused them. Build REST API endpoints and document them in Postman or Swagger. Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage.
