Software Engineer- Intern

We’re looking for an intern who enjoys building things that actually run and can work 20+ hours per week. This role is about prototyping end-to-end products. If you like shipping early, iterating fast, and owning the full loop (UI backend integration), keep reading.

What You Should Enjoy

Being passionate about the AI/GenAI space

Turning fuzzy ideas into working demos

Building something visible quickly, then improving it

Making pragmatic trade-offs instead of over-engineering

Using AI tools to move faster (and knowing when not to)

Working independently with minimal hand-holding

Technical baseline (non-negotiable)

Backend (language-agnostic). Comfortable building small services or APIs in any of the following:

Python

.NET (C#)

C++

Frontend (important): Able to build a simple, usable UI

JavaScript / TypeScript, CSS, HTML

Comfortable with React or another modern framework (Vue, Angular)

Tooling

Linux shell (bash/zsh)

Git

Docker basics (or willingness to learn: we need docker compose up to work)

You’ll Thrive in This Role If You

Are currently pursuing a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science (or a closely related field)

Are fluent in English, both written and spoken

Enjoy building side projects, demos, or small experiments and can share some of them

Have experience (or strong curiosity) around integrating third-party APIs, especially:

OAuth flows

JWT-based authentication

Certificates or signed requests

Are interested in or have experimented with:

LLM APIs

Agent or tool-calling workflows

MCP-style setups

Use AI coding assistants (Cursor, Copilot, ChatGPT, etc.) thoughtfully to move faster

Are comfortable working with rough edges first and improving things over time

What you will actually do

Build and experiment with AI agent workflows

Build small but real prototypes, end-to-end

Integrate with external APIs, including handling authentication flows (OAuth, API keys, JWTs)

Iterate fast with incomplete specs

Explain what you built, what you skipped, and why

How we’ll assess you

If your experience and application look solid, the next step is a small technical assignment to help us understand your current skills — nothing scary, just a short prototyping challenge:

Not production work

Will not be used in our products

You own your solution

Free to open-source or reuse it however you want

Expectations for the Assignment

A working prototype

Runnable via Docker (docker compose up).

A short README explaining:

What you built

Key trade-offs

What you’d improve with more time

How we evaluate

We look for:

Speed to something tangible

End-to-end thinking

Taste and scope control

Developer experience (can someone else run it?)

Ability to integrate with external systems without reinventing security primitives

Clear reasoning

We don’t care about:

Buzzwords

Fancy but empty UI

Sounds demanding but fun? You’ll probably enjoy the internship overall!

Do well on the assignment, and you’ll move to the final step — meeting your future mentor.

What we offer

Two internship positions available

Fast start after the selection process

4-month internship: We’re looking for students who can commit to at least 20 hours per week.

Starting hourly salary: 7.50 EUR

Flexible work setup: Choose what works best for you: hybrid, in-office, or fully remote.

Practical, hands-on experience: Learn how a product company operates in the identity and authentication space, with products used worldwide.

Mentorship and team support: You’ll work with an experienced engineering team that provides guidance, feedback, and mentorship, while still giving you ownership.

Access to internal resources: Full access to our internal library, tools, and knowledge base to help you learn and move faster.

Application deadline: February 1, 2026.
