  • Get to work on challenging, complex and stimulating projects.
  • You will work with our CTO and other developers, and get 1-1 tutoring and guidance from the rest of the team. We have very minimal overhead, a flat structure, and we prefer to get to work rather than spend hours in meetings.
  • We offer high flexibility, family-friendly arrangements, and actively promote a good work-life balance.
  • This is a paid internship, you'll be compensated at 1600 EUR per month.

  • Familiarize yourself with CheerpJ
  • Learn about Just-In-Time compilation
  • Add new features to the JIT

Project 2: Create new a new testing infrastructure using Nix

Nix is a functional package manager that allows you to manage system configurations and packages deterministically via it's own functional programming language.

  • Familiarize yourself with Nix
  • Design and implement a new testing infrastructure to fit in with our CI
  • Add test workflows to our products

Requirements
