Software Developer Intern

About Stockton Commerce

The founders built the first version of the site in 2014 on nights and weekends. Hobbyists in the US make up most of our customers, and many have been buying since the beginning.

Overview

Our Core Services 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. Normal working hours, Monday to Friday. Most communication happens in Slack, with short video calls when needed.

Responsibilities

• Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works
• Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage
• Raise pull requests on GitHub and respond to code review comments within a day
• Present a short demo of your work to the team every two weeks
• Refactor old modules when asked, keeping behaviour the same
• Fix bugs from the Jira backlog, starting with small, well-defined tickets
• Debug failing builds in the GitHub Actions pipeline and note what caused them
• Query and update data in PostgreSQL or MySQL, including simple migrations
