Software Engineering Intern

About us:

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.

• Profile slow endpoints and suggest fixes, such as adding an index or caching a result
• Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems
• Refactor old modules when asked, keeping behaviour the same
• Query and update data in PostgreSQL or MySQL, including simple migrations
• Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works

• Eligible to work in Cyprus
• Good grasp of at least one programming language: Python, Java, JavaScript or C++
• Must be able to overlap at least 4 hours a day with the team's working hours
