About the internship

This is a hands-on internship for someone early in their career or still studying. You'll work on scoped, real projects with a clear owner and regular feedback — not busywork. The goal is for you to ship something that's actually used by the end of it, and for strong interns this can convert into a full-time junior role.

What you'll work on

• Building small internal tools, scripts, or dashboard features under guidance.

• Helping integrate and test third-party APIs (payment providers, vendor services).

• Writing and improving automated tests.

• Investigating bugs and data issues, and proposing fixes.

• Documenting how things work as you learn them.

What we're looking for

• Currently studying computer science / software engineering, a recent graduate, or self-taught with projects to show.

• Working knowledge of JavaScript/TypeScript (our entire stack is TypeScript).

• Basic understanding of how web applications and APIs work.

• Conversational-to-professional English.

• Based in LATAM and able to work EST business hours.

• Curiosity and the ability to figure things out — we care more about how you learn than what you already know.

Nice to have

• Any exposure to databases, Git, or cloud services.

• Interest in fintech or payments.

• A side project, GitHub profile, or portfolio.

What you get

• A mentor and structured feedback throughout.

• Real exposure to how cross-border payments infrastructure is built.

• A clear path to a full-time junior engineer role for strong performers.
