The program:

Knollbeam is hiring a Summer Software Engineering Intern for Sep 2027. 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. You will intern remotely with our team in Baton Rouge. We have hosted remote interns from several countries before. Core hours overlap with US Central time, 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM CT. We use Slack, Notion and Google Meet. Cameras on for team calls.

Responsibilities:

• Pair with other engineers over screen share to work through tricky problems.
• Build REST API endpoints and document them in Postman or Swagger.
• 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.
• Present a short demo of your work to the team every two weeks.
• Join the daily 15-minute standup on Google Meet and post a short written update in Slack.

Who you are:

• Currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's degree, graduating between December 2027 and June 2028.
• Based in Finland for the duration of the internship.
• Must be able to overlap at least 4 hours a day with the team's working hours.
• Available for 30 to 40 hours a week for the full internship period.
• 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.

Nice to have:

• Familiarity with Django, Flask, FastAPI or Express.
• Exposure to Docker or a cloud platform such as AWS or GCP.

What you get out of it:

• Writing tests is part of the job here, and you will get good at it.
• Code review on every pull request, so expect a lot of feedback on naming, tests and structure.

Program dates: Sep 2027, 3 months.

Intern pay: €3,000-€3,400/month

What we offer:

• Internet allowance.
• Flexible hours.
