Software Developer Intern

From the San Jose office, we cover clients within about a two-hour drive and support remote sites through RMM tools. Mulberrybridge IT provides managed IT for offices of 10 to 200 users: help desk, patching, backups, Microsoft 365 and firewall management. Founded in 2003, we now have 160 employees.

Overview:

This is a hands-on coding internship. Most of the work is in Python and Node.js, with some SQL and a bit of shell scripting. This role is fully remote within the US. We ship you a laptop and accessories before your first day.

Day to day:

• Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works
• Debug failing builds in the GitHub Actions pipeline and note what caused them
• Profile slow endpoints and suggest fixes, such as adding an index or caching a result
• Query and update data in PostgreSQL or MySQL, including simple migrations
• Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage
• Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems
• Write and test backend features in Python or Node.js under the guidance of a senior developer

Requirements:

• Authorized to work in the US. CPT and OPT candidates are welcome to apply
• Based in the US for the duration of the internship
• Basic understanding of data structures, OOP and how HTTP requests work
• Some experience with Git, even if only on college or personal projects
• A GitHub profile with at least two projects you wrote yourself

Preferred:

• Contributions to an open source project, however small
• Competitive programming practice on LeetCode, Codeforces or CodeChef
• Any previous internship, hackathon or freelance coding work

What you get out of it:

• Code review on every pull request, so expect a lot of feedback on naming, tests and structure
• You will ship at least one feature that real users touch before the internship ends
• Writing tests is part of the job here, and you will get good at it
