Software Engineer Trainee

About us

Since 2018, the company has expanded from listings into payments, shipping and seller financing. More than 480 employees work on the product, from search ranking to fraud detection.

About the role

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. Our team is spread across 11 countries. Headquarters is in Phoenix. You will intern remotely with our team in Phoenix. We have hosted remote interns from several countries before. Core hours overlap with US Central time, 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM CT. We use Slack, Notion and Google Meet. Cameras on for team calls.

What you'll do

Raise pull requests on GitHub and respond to code review comments within a day. Profile slow endpoints and suggest fixes, such as adding an index or caching a result. Query and update data in PostgreSQL or MySQL, including simple migrations. Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage. Present a short demo of your work to the team every two weeks. Build REST API endpoints and document them in Postman or Swagger. Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works. Refactor old modules when asked, keeping behaviour the same.

Students currently pursuing B.Tech, BE, BCA, MCA, B.Sc or a related degree, or fresh graduates (2026 or 2027 batch). Women starting or restarting their careers are encouraged to apply. Some experience with Git, even if only on college or personal projects. Good grasp of at least one programming language: Python, Java, JavaScript or C++. A GitHub profile with at least two projects you wrote yourself. Must be able to overlap at least 4 hours a day with the team's working hours. Own laptop with at least 8 GB RAM and a reliable internet connection.
