Software Engineering Intern - Remote

About Jacobsen Digital

Annual releases gave way to two-week sprints years ago, and the platform now handles over 200 million API calls a day. Founded in 2007, we now have 540 employees.

Overview

We need a student who can write clean code, test it and explain what it does. Prior internships are not required. You can work from home anywhere in Norway. We have no office requirement. Monday to Friday, regular working hours, flexible start and finish. You will need a reliable internet connection and a quiet place to work.

Responsibilities

• 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
• Refactor old modules when asked, keeping behaviour the same
• Build REST API endpoints and document them in Postman or Swagger
• Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems
• Profile slow endpoints and suggest fixes, such as adding an index or caching a result

Requirements

• Currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's degree, graduating 2027 or 2028
• Eligible to work in Norway
• Own laptop with at least 8 GB RAM and a reliable internet connection
• Available for 30 to 40 hours a week for the full internship period
• Some experience with Git, even if only on college or personal projects

Preferred

• Familiarity with Django, Flask, FastAPI or Express

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
