Remote, open to candidates across the US. Standard office hours, Monday to Friday, with flexibility around them.

What you will do

• Profile slow endpoints and suggest fixes, such as adding an index or caching a result.

• Build REST API endpoints and document them in Postman or Swagger.

About you

• Available 40 hours a week for the full internship.
• Based in the US for the duration of the internship.
• Available for 30 to 40 hours a week for the full internship period.
• A GitHub profile with at least two projects you wrote yourself.
