Software Engineer Intern (Journey)

At Instructure, we believe in the power of people to grow and succeed throughout their lives. Our goal is to amplify that power by creating intuitive products that simplify learning and personal development, facilitate meaningful relationships, and inspire people to go further in their education and careers. We do this by giving smart, creative, passionate people opportunities to create something awesome. And that's where you come in: 

We’re hiring Software Engineer Interns, who are passionate about technology and education, to help build new features into our existing products, such as the Canvas Learning Management System.

Product and engineering aren't separated by arbitrary ownership boundaries. We all collaborate together, even when we're only connected via Slack and Zoom. We highly value innovation, so much so that we have quarterly Hackweeks; a week each quarter to work on relevant pet projects and features.

• We have opportunities where you can try yourself out in DevOps work, we use AWS and maintain our services on our own. We use TypeScript, Node.js and React
• We foster a culture of continuous improvement, ensuring that our codebase is consistently enhanced and taken care of, with a strong emphasis on maintaining high code quality standards

Who we are looking for:

• You should be an active student for at least 12 months and available to work a minimum of 20 hours per week
• Familiarity with and decent skills in JavaScript / TypeScript - Node.js and React
• Cloud-related experience is a plus
• Experience or projects outside of class is a plus
• Ability and desire to work in an inclusive and team-oriented environment, but can be self-directed as needs dictate
• Is excited about testing code and learning new testing methodologies to ensure that the customer can use a best-in-class product
• Comfortable communicating over text and video conferences
