Software Engineer Intern

Small business owners and physicians make up a large share of the client list. Our office is in a converted house near downtown Gold Coast. Compliance reviews outgoing client email, so expect to write carefully.

Overview:

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. You will intern remotely with our team in Gold Coast. We have hosted remote interns from several countries before. You will need some overlap with Australian Eastern time in the mornings. Day-to-day communication is in Slack and Google Meet.

Responsibilities:

• Refactor old modules when asked, keeping behaviour the same
• Debug failing builds in the GitHub Actions pipeline and note what caused them
• Profile slow endpoints and suggest fixes, such as adding an index or caching a result
• Write and test backend features in Python or Node.js under the guidance of a senior developer
• Fix bugs from the Jira backlog, starting with small, well-defined tickets
• Raise pull requests on GitHub and respond to code review comments within a day
• Present a short demo of your work to the team every two weeks
• Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems

What we're looking for:

• Based in the US for the duration of the internship
• Authorized to work in the US. CPT and OPT candidates are welcome to apply
• Available 40 hours a week for the full internship
• Available for 30 to 40 hours a week for the full internship period
• Must be able to overlap at least 4 hours a day with the team's working hours
• Good grasp of at least one programming language: Python, Java, JavaScript or C++

Duration: 10-12 weeks

Start date: May 2027

Stipend: $44.00 to $50.50/hr

Duration: 10-12 weeks. Start: May 2027.
