About the Role
We are looking to hire Software Engineering Interns with at least 8 months of
experience to join our engineering team. It is a really exciting and technically
challenging time for our engineering teams as we focus on 3 development pillars:
travel, fintech, and a superapp membership to unite them along with other
savings and earnings use cases. Between them, our services handle 1000s of
requests per second, ingest over 1TB of data per day and process over $1MM per
day in sales, while maintaining a 99.9+% uptime.
