Software Engineering Intern

More than 440 employees work on the product, from search ranking to fraud detection. Our engineering, trust and safety, and customer support teams work across offices in Nicosia and several other countries. Support shifts are shared, so engineers spend a few hours a quarter answering customer tickets.

Overview

We need a student who can write clean code, test it and explain what it does. Prior internships are not required. Remote within Cyprus. The team meets in Nicosia once a quarter, travel covered. Normal working hours, Monday to Friday. Equipment is provided, including a laptop.

What you'll do

• Refactor old modules when asked, keeping behaviour the same
• 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
• 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
• Join the daily 15-minute standup on Google Meet and post a short written update in Slack

What we're looking for

• Eligible to work in Cyprus
• Currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's degree, graduating 2027 or 2028
• Based in Cyprus for the duration of the internship
• A GitHub profile with at least two projects you wrote yourself
• Own laptop with at least 8 GB RAM and a reliable internet connection
• Basic understanding of data structures, OOP and how HTTP requests work
• Able to communicate clearly in written English on Slack and in pull requests
• Must be able to overlap at least 4 hours a day with the team's working hours

Preferred

• Contributions to an open source project, however small
• Knowledge of Linux command line basics

What you get out of it

• You will ship at least one feature that real users touch before the internship ends
• Weekly 1:1 with your mentor to go over what went well and what to work on next
• Writing tests is part of the job here, and you will get good at it
