We are currently looking for our next end-of-study interns (Bac +5) based in France, to work from our office located in Paris(Non-negotiable)

The Backend engineering team at Qonto currently has over 140 highly skilled engineers, from all over the world, working closely in cross-functional teams to shape our finance solutions. Each backend developer is empowered to challenge and influence the direction of the features they are working on.

👩‍💻🧑‍💻 As a Backend Engineering Intern at Qonto, you will :

🧠 Join a cross-functional team and build innovative financial features such as: providing a blazing fast and reliable card authorization service, innovative transfer solutions, delightful onboarding experience, state-of-the-art payment gateway, etc
🎙 Participate in the discussions on the strategy & vision for our product by being fully involved and integrated into our cross-functional organization (Tech, Product & Design)
⚙️ Work in a top-notch environment, where our apps are thoroughly tested, continuously deployed, and closely monitored
🤝 Learn and grow: by getting continuous feedback to improve your skills (both technical and on your ways of working). You will partner closely with a dedicated Backend engineer who will teach you and guide you throughout the internship. You will learn to read, write, and review production-ready Golang and Ruby applications

💻 Our stack

Qonto was originally built as a banking application in Ruby. The Core Banking System was then written in Golang for obvious performance reasons. We are now leveraging both languages to write our new applications.

However, not mastering Ruby, and Golang is not an issue at all! A lot of Qontoers have learned since they joined us.
To help you to quickly learn and grow on our stack, beyond the documentation & pair programming, we have a specific program for you and your dedicated mentor will be there to answer all your questions.

At Qonto, you’ll encounter different technologies related to storage, communication, and deployment: PostgreSQL, Kafka, and ElasticSearch. You’ll also learn how to use Docker, Kubernetes, and Grafana.
