Software Engineering Placement (12 months)

Everyone reviews everyone else's work before it goes to the client. We're looking for a Software Engineering Placement (12 months). 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. Remote position. Most of the team is in Palermo, but nobody is required to come in. Weekday working hours, with room to shift your day when needed. You get a company laptop and a headset before you start.

What you will do

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

Requirements

Available for the full internship period. Currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's degree, graduating 2028. A GitHub profile with at least two projects you wrote yourself. Good grasp of at least one programming language: Python, Java, JavaScript or C++. Comfortable writing simple SQL queries (SELECT, JOIN, GROUP BY).
