Software Engineering Placement (12 months)

About Cypressridge Security:

Clients are mostly credit unions, medical groups and municipal governments in Lombardy. Founded in 2008, we now have 44 employees.

Overview:

We need a student who can write clean code, test it and explain what it does. Prior internships are not required. Remote, open to candidates across Italy. Normal business hours, Monday to Friday, with some flexibility.

What you'll do:

Join the daily 15-minute standup on Google Meet and post a short written update in Slack. Profile slow endpoints and suggest fixes, such as adding an index or caching a result. 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. Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems. Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works. Fix bugs from the Jira backlog, starting with small, well-defined tickets. Present a short demo of your work to the team every two weeks.

Requirements:

Available for the full internship period. Eligible to work in Italy. Currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's degree, graduating 2026, 2027 or 2028. Based in Italy for the duration of the internship. Some experience with Git, even if only on college or personal projects. Able to communicate clearly in written English on Slack and in pull requests. Comfortable writing simple SQL queries (SELECT, JOIN, GROUP BY). A GitHub profile with at least two projects you wrote yourself.
