Software Engineer Intern

Who we are:

Customers who call us usually reach someone who wrote the code they are asking about. Founded in 2019, we now have 29 employees.

The internship:

Our Platform team is five engineers working fully remote across two time zones. The intern picks up small backend tickets first and moves to bigger features once comfortable. Remote, open to candidates across the US. Hours are flexible, with one short team call each morning.

Day to day:

• Query and update data in PostgreSQL or MySQL, including simple migrations.
• Write and test backend features in Python or Node.js under the guidance of a senior developer.
• Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage.
• Build REST API endpoints and document them in Postman or Swagger.
• Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems.

Requirements:

• Currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's program, graduating 2028.
• Available 40 hours a week for the full internship.
• Based in the US for the duration of the internship.
• Authorized to work in the US. CPT and OPT candidates are welcome to apply.
• A GitHub profile with at least two projects you wrote yourself.
• Basic understanding of data structures, OOP and how HTTP requests work.
• Must be able to overlap at least 4 hours a day with the team's working hours.
• Comfortable writing simple SQL queries (SELECT, JOIN, GROUP BY)
• Good grasp of at least one programming language: Python, Java, JavaScript or C++.

Bonus points:

• Exposure to Docker or a cloud platform such as AWS or GCP.
• Competitive programming practice on LeetCode, Codeforces or CodeChef.
• Contributions to an open source project, however small.
