Integrate third-party APIs and external data providers.
Debug production issues and identify performance or reliability bottlenecks.
Write clean, maintainable, and well-tested code.
Participate in code reviews and technical discussions.
Improve the performance, reliability, and scalability of existing backend services.
Work closely with product, mobile, and other engineering teams to take features from requirements to production.

Exposure to real-time systems, sports data, fintech, gaming, or fantasy sports platforms.
Interest in motorsports, football, Formula 1, gaming, or fantasy sports.

Strong interest in backend software development and practical programming.
Working knowledge of Golang and familiarity with core programming concepts.
Understanding of APIs, databases, data structures, or server-side application development is helpful.
Ability to work independently, communicate clearly, and manage tasks in a remote setup.
The internship duration is 2 months.
