Software Engineering Intern (Remote)

Revenue comes from a mix of advertising, affiliate commissions and a premium tier. Most of our traffic is mobile, so the iOS and Android apps get as much attention as the website.

About the role:

Our Core Services 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. You can work from home anywhere in the US. We have no office requirement. Few meetings, lots of written updates.

Day to day:

• Raise pull requests on GitHub and respond to code review comments within a day.
• Present a short demo of your work to the team every two weeks.
• Query and update data in PostgreSQL or MySQL, including simple migrations.
• 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.

What we're looking for:

• Available 40 hours a week for the full internship.
• Based in the US for the duration of the internship.
• Authorized to work in the US. CPT and OPT candidates are welcome to apply.
• Currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's program, graduating 2026 or 2027.
• Basic understanding of data structures, OOP and how HTTP requests work.
• 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.

What you'll learn:

• Writing tests is part of the job here, and you will get good at it.
• Weekly 1:1 with your mentor to go over what went well and what to work on next.
• Certificate and letter of recommendation on completion, plus a pre-placement offer for strong performers.
