Software Engineering Placement (12 months)

Two developers, a designer and a support lead make up most of the company, so everyone touches the product. Customers who call us usually reach someone who wrote the code they are asking about.

Overview

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. You can work from home anywhere in France. We have no office requirement.

Day to day

• 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
• Fix bugs from the Jira backlog, starting with small, well-defined tickets
• Join the daily 15-minute standup on Google Meet and post a short written update in Slack
• Debug failing builds in the GitHub Actions pipeline and note what caused them
• Present a short demo of your work to the team every two weeks
• Raise pull requests on GitHub and respond to code review comments within a day

Who can apply

• Currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's degree, graduating 2028
• Eligible to work in France
• Available for the full internship period
• Based in France for the duration of the internship
• Own laptop with at least 8 GB RAM and a reliable internet connection
• Able to communicate clearly in written English on Slack and in pull requests
• Comfortable writing simple SQL queries (SELECT, JOIN, GROUP BY)
• Available for 30 to 40 hours a week for the full internship period

Nice to have

• Familiarity with Django, Flask, FastAPI or Express

What you get out of it

• You will ship at least one feature that real users touch before the internship ends
• Code review on every pull request, so expect a lot of feedback on naming, tests and structure
