Location: Austin, TX
Start Date: June 1st
Engineering Intern (Software / Platform Engineering)
About the Role
We are looking for a motivated Engineering Intern to join our engineering team and gain hands‑on experience building real production systems. This is not a shadowing role — interns will design, implement, test, and ship features that are used by customers and internal teams.
You will work alongside senior engineers on backend services, APIs, data processing, and platform tooling while learning modern development practices, code reviews, and collaborative engineering workflows.
What You Will Do
Build and enhance backend services using C# and Python
Implement APIs, automation tools, and internal engineering utilities
Write clean, maintainable, and well‑tested code
Work with relational and NoSQL databases to store and retrieve data
Participate in code reviews and engineering design discussions
Debug and troubleshoot issues in development and test environments
Apply data structures and algorithms to solve real engineering problems
Collaborate with engineers, product managers, and QA to deliver features
Required Qualifications
Currently pursuing an undergraduate degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related STEM field
Strong programming skills in C# and Python
Understanding of data structures and algorithms
Knowledge of database fundamentals
Basic SQL (queries, joins, indexing concepts)
Exposure to NoSQL data models
Familiarity with software engineering fundamentals
Object‑oriented programming
Version control (Git)
Debugging techniques
Understanding of formal languages / computation concepts (automata, grammars, parsing, or compiler basics)
Strong problem‑solving and analytical skills
Nice To Have (Not Required)
Experience building APIs or web applications
Exposure to cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, or GCP)
Knowledge of REST architecture
Experience with unit testing frameworks
Familiarity with containers or Linux environments
What You Will Gain
Real‑world engineering experience working on production systems
Mentorship from senior engineers
Exposure to modern software architecture and development practices
Practical experience with databases, APIs, and scalable services
A portfolio of shipped work you can showcase
Work Environment
Collaborative team environment
Code review‑driven development
Learning‑focused mentorship culture
Ideal Candidate: Curious, self‑driven, and excited to turn computer science theory into working software.
