Software Engineering Intern

Enterprise clients outsource service desk, end-user support and data centre operations to us under multi-year contracts. Across Vienna, the company runs 14 branch offices and a central depot for hardware staging and imaging. Certification exams are paid for, and passing one comes with a raise.

The internship:

We need a student who can write clean code, test it and explain what it does. Prior internships are not required. Remote within Austria. The team meets in Vienna once a quarter, travel covered.

Responsibilities:

Fix bugs from the Jira backlog, starting with small, well-defined tickets. Raise pull requests on GitHub and respond to code review comments within a day. Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works. Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage. Build REST API endpoints and document them in Postman or Swagger. Profile slow endpoints and suggest fixes, such as adding an index or caching a result.

What we're looking for:

Based in Austria for the duration of the internship. Eligible to work in Austria. Currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's degree, graduating 2026 or 2027. 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++. Comfortable writing simple SQL queries (SELECT, JOIN, GROUP BY). 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.

Nice to have:

Knowledge of Linux command line basics. Any previous internship, hackathon or freelance coding work.

Duration: 6 months

Start date: Immediately

Stipend: €1,800 - €2,300 monthly

What we offer:

Letter of recommendation. Flexible hours. Internet allowance. Online learning budget. Company laptop. Certificate of completion.
