Software Development Intern

About us:

Institutional investors and pension funds own most of the properties we manage.

Overview:

We need a student who can write clean code, test it and explain what it does. Prior internships are not required. You can work from home anywhere in India. We have no office requirement. Standard office hours, Monday to Friday, with flexibility around them.

Day to day:

Refactor old modules when asked, keeping behaviour the same. Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems. Debug failing builds in the GitHub Actions pipeline and note what caused them. Build REST API endpoints and document them in Postman or Swagger. Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works. Fix bugs from the Jira backlog, starting with small, well-defined tickets. Profile slow endpoints and suggest fixes, such as adding an index or caching a result.

Who can apply:

Can commit full time, from home, for the whole internship. Can start immediately or within two weeks. Have their own laptop and a reliable internet connection. Able to communicate clearly in written English on Slack and in pull requests. Comfortable writing simple SQL queries (SELECT, JOIN, GROUP BY). Some experience with Git, even if only on college or personal projects.

What you get out of it:

Writing tests is part of the job here, and you will get good at it. Weekly 1:1 with your mentor to go over what went well and what to work on next. Code review on every pull request, so expect a lot of feedback on naming, tests and structure.
