The Kind of Developer We're Looking For

We are not looking for someone who only knows how to follow tutorials or YouTube projects. You should be able to explain the fundamentals behind what you build.

You should have a basic understanding of questions such as:

What happens when a request reaches a Node.js server
How does Express middleware work
How does a React application communicate with an API
What happens between a frontend button click and a database update
What is the difference between authentication and authorization
Why do we use controllers, services, and modules in a backend
How does asynchronous code work in Node.js
What happens when an API returns an error
How would you structure a small backend application
How do databases and indexes affect API performance

You don't need to know everything. Strong fundamentals, curiosity, and the ability to understand an existing codebase are more important than knowing a long list of technologies.

If you enjoy understanding how systems work, building features, debugging problems, and learning through real-world development, this internship will give you the opportunity to work with a development team and build practical software engineering skills.

Note: This is a paid internship.Skills: databases,authentication,node.js,rest,react,api
