About the role:

The intern will work on internal tools and APIs used by our support and operations staff. Daily standup on Google Meet, everything else async on Slack. Remote position. Most of the team is in Dublin, but nobody is required to come in. Monday to Friday, regular working hours, flexible start and finish.

Responsibilities:

• Join the daily 15-minute standup on Google Meet and post a short written update in Slack
• Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works
• Refactor old modules when asked, keeping behaviour the same
• Build REST API endpoints and document them in Postman or Swagger
• Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems

Nice to have:

What you get out of it:

• How a production codebase is organised, deployed and monitored
