Software Engineer Intern

About us:

Every tech does a bit of everything, from printer jams to firewall rules. Masonhook Networks is a small IT shop: the owner, four technicians and a part-time office manager. We started in 2020 and have grown to about 27 people. Lunch is usually whatever is closest to the client site.

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. Remote, open to candidates across the US. Normal working hours, Monday to Friday.

What you'll do:

• Present a short demo of your work to the team every two weeks.
• Debug failing builds in the GitHub Actions pipeline and note what caused them.
• Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works.
• Raise pull requests on GitHub and respond to code review comments within a day.
• Fix bugs from the Jira backlog, starting with small, well-defined tickets.

Requirements:

• Based in the US for the duration of the internship.
• Available 40 hours a week for the full internship.
• Authorized to work in the US. CPT and OPT candidates are welcome to apply.
• Currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's program, graduating 2027 or 2028.
• A GitHub profile with at least two projects you wrote yourself.
• Basic understanding of data structures, OOP and how HTTP requests work.
• Available for 30 to 40 hours a week for the full internship period.
• Able to communicate clearly in written English on Slack and in pull requests.

What you get out of it:

• Code review on every pull request, so expect a lot of feedback on naming, tests and structure.
• Certificate and letter of recommendation on completion, plus a pre-placement offer for strong performers.
