About the role:

Our Internal Tools 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. We are headquartered in Manchester and have been hiring remotely since 2020. You will intern remotely with our team in Manchester. We have hosted remote interns from several countries before. Working hours overlap with UK business hours.

Day to day:

• Join the daily 15-minute standup on Google Meet and post a short written update in Slack
• Write and test backend features in Python or Node.js under the guidance of a senior developer
• Debug failing builds in the GitHub Actions pipeline and note what caused them
• Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems
• Refactor old modules when asked, keeping behaviour the same

What we're looking for:

• Authorized to work in the US. CPT and OPT candidates are welcome to apply
• Based in the US for the duration of the internship
• A GitHub profile with at least two projects you wrote yourself
• Good grasp of at least one programming language: Python, Java, JavaScript or C++
• Some experience with Git, even if only on college or personal projects
• 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
• Comfortable writing simple SQL queries (SELECT, JOIN, GROUP BY)

What you get out of it:

• Weekly 1:1 with your mentor to go over what went well and what to work on next
• Writing tests is part of the job here, and you will get good at it
• How a production codebase is organised, deployed and monitored
