What's Exciting About The Role

This is a 3-month internship program designed to give you a real taste of what it’s like to work in a global software company. You’ll be writing real code, working on live projects, and contributing to the 2Checkout platform used by businesses around the world.

What makes this role truly unique is the opportunity to work hands-on with Claude AI in a professional setting. You’ll use AI as a daily coding tool alongside experienced developers and QA engineers, learning not just how software is built, but how the future of AI-assisted development actually works in practice.

Your work could go live in production. That’s not a promise we make lightly — it’s a reflection of how seriously we take the contributions of everyone on our team, intern or not.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Write and ship real code on the 2Checkout platform using Claude AI as your primary development tool, under the guidance of senior engineers.
  • Collaborate within cross-functional agile teams consisting of developers and QA testers, participating in daily stand-ups, code reviews, and sprint planning.
  • Leverage AI tools (Claude and similar) to accelerate development, debug issues, and explore innovative solutions to real product challenges.
  • Observe and absorb the full software development lifecycle — from requirements and architecture to testing, deployment, and monitoring in a production environment.
  • Take ownership of assigned tasks and deliver them to production quality standards, with mentorship and support every step of the way.

Skills and Experience We Desire

You don’t need to be an expert - you need to be curious, driven, and excited about technology. Here’s what we’re looking for:

  • Currently enrolled in a university program in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field.
  • A genuine passion for technology and software development — whether through coursework, personal projects, hackathons, or just tinkering on your own.
  • Fascination with AI and large language models — you’ve played with ChatGPT, Claude, or similar tools, and you want to go deeper.
  • Basic programming knowledge in any language (we use PHP) — we’ll teach you the rest.
  • Strong communication skills and a collaborative mindset — you ask questions, share ideas, and aren’t afraid to say, “I don’t know yet.”
  • Prior experience with Claude or other AI coding assistants is a plus, but far from required — enthusiasm and curiosity matter much more.
