Ahrefs is looking to hire students for internship in the backend team at our main office in Singapore (we might consider remote internship for the right candidate). We will be giving preference to senior (closer to graduation) years. We are ready to accommodate for terms as short as 2-3 months and adjust working dates/ hours to your academic schedule.
Team
You can get a sense of what we are doing at https://ahrefs.com/jobs and in particular https://ahrefs.com/jobs/ocaml-developer Our day to day language is OCaml, with bits of D and C++ here and there. You can see some of our projects opensourced at https://github.com/ahrefs and some contributions in core OCaml compiler as well as surrounding infrastructure. We are a member of OCaml Software Foundation and proud sponsor of many functional programming conferences.
What to Expect
Work on real-world projects ranging from crawling entire Internet to processing petabytes of data extracted from those crawls and serving user requests consuming these data. We don't have explicit training sessions but you can expect all the needed help and advice from the team. You will be assigned one-on-one mentor to review your code and give feedback. You will be expected to write code in OCaml (ReasonML, Rust, C++ are up for discussion).
Ahrefs does not engage with agencies or third party recruitment solutions for the roles we hire for. If at any point we need help, we'll let you know!
Quiénes somos
Somos un pequeño equipo que cree firmemente que una mejor tecnología conduce a mejores soluciones para los problemas del mundo real. Adoramos los lenguajes funcionales y la tipificación estática, empleamos ampliamente la generación de código y la metaprogramación, valoramos la claridad y la previsibilidad del código y buscamos constantemente la automatización de las tareas repetitivas y la eliminación de la repetición de tareas.
Nos guiamos por DRY y seguimos KISS. Si existe tecnología que nos hará la vida más fácil, le daremos una oportunidad. Confiamos mucho en el código abierto (como la única forma viable de crear un sistema que se pueda mantener) y contribute back. We occasionally blog on tech.ahrefs.com.
Nuestro lema es primero hazlo, luego hazlo bien, luego hazlo mejor
