If you’re curious about working in a serverless environment on API‑driven back‑end systems and eager to learn from an experienced and supportive team, this opportunity is for you.

What You’ll Do

Build and enhance features that help customers understand their cloud spend and opportunities to manage that spend

Own a scoped technical project for the first ~3 months of your co‑op and see it through from design to delivery

Collaborate with engineers, product managers, and your mentor on solutions that ship to real customers

Participate in team rituals like standups, refinement, planning, retros, and demos

Contribute to internal improvements – from monitoring and testing, to documentation and automation

A 2nd or 3rd year Computer Science undergraduate co‑op student (Northeastern University, Spring 2026 cycle)

Solid foundation in programming fundamentals (data structures, algorithms, etc.)

Exposure to backend languages like Python or Go (schoolwork or personal projects is great!)

Comfortable in a Linux‑based development environment and using git

Excited to work on real‑world systems and contribute to team outcomes

Curious, collaborative, and eager to learn – you ask questions and take ownership

What You’ll Learn

How modern cloud‑native systems operate at scale using technologies like AWS Lambda, Step Functions, DynamoDB, and Snowflake

How to write production‑ready code and deploy it safely to real systems

How cross‑functional product teams collaborate to deliver customer‑facing value

What it's like to work in a professional engineering environment – from code review to incident response to celebrating a feature launch
