Front end developer internship

Description de l'offre

As an intern developer, you will join one of the agile development teams within Graciamediaweb focussed on building functionality within our subscription platform or for a specific product. The primary purpose of the role is to integrate designs, test and write code for incorporation into our platform and products.

Our technical strategy for the platform is based on two principles: Continuous Delivery in terms of process, and containerised micro-services in terms of the technology. We have made progress in this but there is still a lot of work to do: we have legacy systems that are in the process of migration, and while we working build systems producing our containers we are not yet fully automated.

Developers within our teams are responsible for writing high-quality code that fits into this vision, and as we rely heavily on the Symfony and Laravel framework for the back-end and JQuery for the front (we are moving toward ReactJS). We also expect developers to contribute to the technical environment in general: understanding how the applications are deployed into production, giving feedback on design and architectural choices, helping improve our tooling and general development environment.
We follow an agile methodology (scrum), and developers work alongside our designers and product owners in sprints.

Key Tasks
- Commit to developing features on a sprint-to-sprint basis
- Planning work through Gitlab, reporting progress consistently
- Writing tests, and developing new functionality
- Documenting code and decisions, leading or contributing to design decisions
- Ensuring team scrum master is aware of all blocking problems
- Working alongside technical product management and others in the business to refine the backlog, and contribute to product design decisions
