The program:

Dublin Labs is hiring a Software Engineering Intern for Immediately. 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. Our headquarters is in Dublin, and about a third of the team works remotely from other countries. You will intern remotely with our team in Dublin. We have hosted remote interns from several countries before. Working hours overlap with UK business hours. You need a reliable internet connection and somewhere quiet to work.

What you'll do:

• Refactor old modules when asked, keeping behaviour the same.
• Debug failing builds in the GitHub Actions pipeline and note what caused them.
• Write and test backend features in Python or Node.js under the guidance of a senior developer.
• Query and update data in PostgreSQL or MySQL, including simple migrations.
• 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.

Basic qualifications:

• Available for the full internship period.
• Eligible to work in Italy.
• A GitHub profile with at least two projects you wrote yourself.
• Basic understanding of data structures, OOP and how HTTP requests work.
• Available for 30 to 40 hours a week for the full internship period.

Preferred qualifications:

• Any previous internship, hackathon or freelance coding work.
• 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.
• Code review on every pull request, so expect a lot of feedback on naming, tests and structure.

Program dates: Immediately, 4 months.

Compensation: €2,300-€2,800/month

Benefits for interns:

• Flexible hours.
• Letter of recommendation.
• Certificate of completion.
• Mentorship.
• Paid public holidays.
• Possibility of a full-time offer.

Duration: 4 months. Start: Immediately.
