Job description

Kick-start your career in software development!

We are looking for an enthusiastic Front-End Software Developer Intern who is eager to gain practical, hands-on experience in a real business environment.

This is an excellent opportunity for a recent graduate or junior developer who has learned the fundamentals of front-end development and now wants the opportunity to build, test and improve real-world applications.

You don't need years of experience — we're looking for someone with a good foundation, a problem-solving mindset and a genuine interest in technology.

What you'll be doing

Working alongside the team, you will:

  • Assist with developing and maintaining web-based applications and user interfaces.
  • Build responsive, user-friendly front-end components.
  • Assist with improving the usability and functionality of existing applications.
  • Write clean, structured and maintainable code.
  • Test applications and identify bugs or usability issues.
  • Troubleshoot and assist with resolving technical problems.
  • Work with developers and internal users to understand business requirements.
  • Assist with implementing new features and system improvements.
  • Participate in testing, documentation and deployment processes.
  • Learn and apply software development best practices.
  • Gain exposure to the full software development lifecycle.

What we're looking for

You should have completed, or be completing, a relevant qualification in:

  • Software Development
  • Computer Science
  • Information Technology
  • Web Development
  • Software Engineering

or a similar field.

You should have a basic working knowledge of:

  • HTML
  • CSS
  • JavaScript
  • Responsive web design
  • Basic programming principles
  • Version control such as Git/GitHub

Exposure to a Python, FastAPI and Jinja2 would be advantageous, but is not essential.

You will be a great fit if you

  • Love technology and enjoy figuring out how things work.
  • Enjoy solving problems.
  • Have strong attention to detail.
  • Are willing to learn and take feedback.
  • Can work independently but aren't afraid to ask questions.
  • Take ownership of your work.
  • Are curious and enjoy learning new technologies.
  • Care about creating a good experience for the person using the software.

What you'll gain

This isn't an internship where you'll spend your time watching other people work.

You'll have the opportunity to gain practical experience in:

  • Front-end application development
  • UI development
  • Testing and debugging
  • Git and version control
  • Working with live business systems
  • Translating business requirements into technical solutions
  • Working as part of a development team
  • Software development processes and best practices

Most importantly, you'll have the opportunity to build real things, solve real problems and develop practical experience that you can take into your software development career.

Education

  • Diploma (Required)

Work Location

  • In person
