During your internship at YourSurprise, you’ll dive into the heart of a high-traffic, international e-commerce platform.
From enhancing our webshops to refining the complex logistics and shipping software that connects our campus in Zierikzee to the world, you’ll tackle real-world challenges that keep our "gift engine" running smoothly.
Your mission? Research the possibilities and build software tools, turning tricky operational puzzles into clean, scalable solutions.
Investigate complex problems within our systems to understand how they work and identify where and how we can make improvements.
Act as the bridge between business needs and code by taking what you’ve learned from experts and turning it into clear technical specifications, such as flowcharts or requirements.
Develop working proof-of-concepts, web apps, and API services that solve real challenges, whether it's helping our teams work faster or helping our customers find the perfect gift.
Work as a full member of our development team, joining weekly sessions with our team of 30+ engineers to share your progress, pick up new skills, and participate in code reviews with your teammates.
You will gain hands-on experience with a modern tech stack. While we primarily use PHP (Symfony) and TypeScript (React), we also work with Go, Python depending on the project needs. You work with our MySQL databases and utilize industry-standard tools like Docker and Git.
Research how new tech, like AI or Large Language Models (LLMs), can make our tools and workflows even smarter.
