About the Role
Software Development Engineer Intern joining the engineering team for a 6-month internship.
Work on real, production-facing features across the stack, building and shipping code that impacts how millions of workers access job opportunities.
What You'll Do
- Build and ship features across the frontend (React) and backend (Node.js, PostgreSQL).
- Write clean, maintainable, well-tested code and participate in code reviews.
- Collaborate closely with senior engineers, product managers, and designers on feature design and implementation.
- Debug and resolve issues in existing systems.
- Contribute to technical discussions and bring fresh perspective to engineering decisions.
What We're Looking For
- Strong fundamentals in React (component architecture, state management, hooks) and Node.js (REST APIs, async patterns).
- Working knowledge of PostgreSQL — schema design, queries, basic optimization.
- Must have completed at least one prior internship in a software engineering role.
- Solid understanding of data structures, algorithms, and problem-solving.
- Comfortable working in a fast-paced startup environment with high ownership.
- Strong communication skills and ability to work collaboratively with cross-functional teams.
- Currently pursuing or recently completed a degree in Computer Science or a related field.
Good to Have
- Familiarity with Git and collaborative development workflows.
- Exposure to cloud platforms (AWS/GCP) or CI/CD pipelines.
- Prior experience building or contributing to a production application.
What You'll Get
- Hands-on experience building production systems used at scale.
- Direct mentorship from senior engineers.
- High ownership from day one — you'll ship real features, not just tickets.
- A front-row seat to how a fast-growing startup operates.
