Software Engineering Intern

We run one of the larger SaaS platforms for commercial insurance carriers, processing millions of policy transactions a year. Annual releases gave way to two-week sprints years ago, and the platform now handles over 200 million API calls a day. On-call rotates weekly and pays a flat stipend whether or not the pager goes off.

Frisco Data is hiring a Software Engineering Intern for June 2027. This is a hands-on coding internship. Most of the work is in Python and Node.js, with some SQL and a bit of shell scripting. This role is fully remote within the US. We talk mostly in Slack and hop on quick calls when something needs discussing.

What you'll do:

• Join the daily 15-minute standup on Google Meet and post a short written update in Slack.
• 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.
• 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.
• Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works.
• Profile slow endpoints and suggest fixes, such as adding an index or caching a result.
• Fix bugs from the Jira backlog, starting with small, well-defined tickets.

Basic qualifications:

• Available 40 hours a week for the full internship.
• Authorized to work in the US. CPT and OPT candidates are welcome to apply.
• 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.
• Some experience with Git, even if only on college or personal projects.
• Own laptop with at least 8 GB RAM and a reliable internet connection.
• Comfortable writing simple SQL queries (SELECT, JOIN, GROUP BY)
• A GitHub profile with at least two projects you wrote yourself.

Preferred qualifications:

• Competitive programming practice on LeetCode, Codeforces or CodeChef.

What you get out of it:

• Weekly 1:1 with your mentor to go over what went well and what to work on next.
• You will ship at least one feature that real users touch before the internship ends.
