Software Engineer Intern (Remote)

About NBE Data

Built in Portland, our document management tool is used by county clerks, title companies and small law offices.

Overview

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 Portland, but nobody is required to come in. Most of our work is async, and meetings are kept short. We use Slack, Notion and Google Meet. Cameras on for team calls.

Day to day

Debug failing builds in the GitHub Actions pipeline and note what caused them. Write and test backend features in Python or Node.js under the guidance of a senior developer. Raise pull requests on GitHub and respond to code review comments within a day. Join the daily 15-minute standup on Google Meet and post a short written update in Slack. Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems. Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works.

Requirements

Available 40 hours a week for the full internship. Authorized to work in the US. CPT and OPT candidates are welcome to apply. 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. Basic understanding of data structures, OOP and how HTTP requests work. Able to communicate clearly in written English on Slack and in pull requests.

Nice to have

Contributions to an open source project, however small. Exposure to Docker or a cloud platform such as AWS or GCP.

What you get out of it

Code review on every pull request, so expect a lot of feedback on naming, tests and structure. 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.
