Software Engineering Placement (12 months)

About Brisbane Data:

We make a web-based inventory and purchasing system used by independent restaurants, breweries and small food manufacturers. Founded in 2001, we now have 70 employees.

Overview:

The intern will work on internal tools and APIs used by our support and operations staff. Daily standup on Google Meet, everything else async on Slack. Our team is spread across 17 countries. Headquarters is in Brisbane. The internship is fully remote. Interns join our Brisbane team on daily calls and get a named mentor. You will need some overlap with Australian Eastern time in the mornings. Communication happens mostly in Slack and short video calls.

Responsibilities:

• Add unit tests with pytest or Jest so new code does not lower coverage.
• Query and update data in PostgreSQL or MySQL, including simple migrations.
• Profile slow endpoints and suggest fixes, such as adding an index or caching a result.
• 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.
• Raise pull requests on GitHub and respond to code review comments within a day.
• Fix bugs from the Jira backlog, starting with small, well-defined tickets.
• Write and test backend features in Python or Node.js under the guidance of a senior developer.

What we're looking for:

• Based in Serbia for the duration of the internship.
• Currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's degree, graduating 2026, 2027 or 2028.
• Available for the full internship period.
• Eligible to work in Serbia.
• Comfortable writing simple SQL queries (SELECT, JOIN, GROUP BY)
• 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.

Bonus points:

• Any previous internship, hackathon or freelance coding work.
