Supports a product engineering organization through engineer development, mentoring, evaluation, hiring, planning and coordination, while contributing to backend and React frontend development.
About this role
This student internship contributes to the development of PR TIMES, a press release distribution service, and Web Clipping, a public relations effectiveness measurement service. The intern joins development projects and works with senior colleagues on practical engineering tasks.
Primary work areas include improving service security, addressing legacy code, and analyzing data. Example assignments include designing and developing API servers and web applications; rewriting existing code to reduce the likelihood of vulnerabilities; refactoring and fixing bugs for PHP version upgrades; developing and operating tools that automate deployments, infrastructure configuration changes, and other operations; implementing new services using machine learning; and conducting research using several years of press release data.
Assignments can be adjusted according to the intern’s interests. The posting states that current technical ability is less important than a willingness to take on challenges. Technical support is provided by the engineering team, including CTO Kaneko. Interns participate in development projects being carried out by the development division.
The internship is conducted in three-month periods and is renewable. At renewal, conditions may be improved or the internship may end. People seeking a long-term experience are welcomed, and an interview is held with every intern once every three months. The posting also states that interns currently work either fully onsite or fully remotely from locations across Japan. The role is generally remote, with some office attendance available according to preference.
Applicants must have a GitHub account and complete the entry assignment. Selection is based on a public GitHub repository containing the completed assignment, whose URL must be entered in the application form. The stated process is application through HERP with the assignment link, notification of the assignment result to successful applicants by email within five business days, a conditions interview, and finalization of the offer.
