Software Engineer Intern

Who we are:

We run one of the larger SaaS platforms for commercial insurance carriers, processing millions of policy transactions a year. We started in 2003 and have grown to about 16,600 people. Code review is required on every pull request, and nobody merges their own changes.

The internship:

Our Internal Tools 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. Our team is spread across 9 countries. Headquarters is in Hyderabad. The internship is fully remote. Interns join our Hyderabad team on daily calls and get a named mentor. Normal working hours, Monday to Friday. We use Slack, Notion and Google Meet. Cameras on for team calls.

Responsibilities:

• 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.
• Write and test backend features in Python or Node.js under the guidance of a senior developer.
• Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works.
• Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage.

Requirements:

• Eligible to work in the UK.
• Currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's degree, graduating 2027 or 2028.
• Comfortable writing simple SQL queries (SELECT, JOIN, GROUP BY)
• A GitHub profile with at least two projects you wrote yourself.
