Software Development Intern

Since 1982, the firm has grown through acquisitions of independent advisory practices. Conseil Steiner manages assets for more than 200,000 clients through 120 offices. Most staff have been with the firm for more than eight years.

The internship

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. Our team is spread across 11 countries. Headquarters is in Geneva. The internship is fully remote. Interns join our Geneva team on daily calls and get a named mentor. Core hours are 10:00 to 15:00 CET.

Day to day

• Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works.
• Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems.
• Present a short demo of your work to the team every two weeks.
• 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.
• Raise pull requests on GitHub and respond to code review comments within a day.
• Query and update data in PostgreSQL or MySQL, including simple migrations.
• Join the daily 15-minute standup on Google Meet and post a short written update in Slack.

Requirements

• Women wanting to start or restart their career can also apply.
• Available for a full-time (work from home) internship for the full duration.
• Own laptop with at least 8 GB RAM and a reliable internet connection.
• Must be able to overlap at least 4 hours a day with the team's working hours.
• Some experience with Git, even if only on college or personal projects.
• Comfortable writing simple SQL queries (SELECT, JOIN, GROUP BY)
• Able to communicate clearly in written English on Slack and in pull requests.
• Pursuing a B.Tech, B.E., BCA, MCA, BS Computer Science or a related degree, graduating in 2026, 2027 or 2028.

What you get out of it

• How a production codebase is organised, deployed and monitored.
• Writing tests is part of the job here, and you will get good at 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.
