Join us as a Backend Engineer Intern and help build the financial features our customers use every day. You'll work in a squad with full ownership of its product scope, learning on real production code with senior engineers. This is an end-of-studies internship, though strong candidates at any level are welcome.

➡️ What you'll do

  • Ship real features: You'll build and release features such as card authorization, transfers, onboarding or our payment gateway.
  • Join the team from day one: You'll take part in the dailies and the team's regular processes like any other engineer.
  • Learn from a dedicated mentor: A senior backend engineer will coach you through weekly one-on-ones and continuous feedback.
  • Read, write and review production code: You'll work in Go and Ruby, using AI tools (Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot…) to learn and build faster.
  • Shape what you build: You'll join product discussions with Tech, Product and Design and help influence the direction of your features.

➡️ What we're looking for

  • Curiosity: You're eager to learn and comfortable navigating complexity.
  • Openness to feedback: You take feedback well and use it to grow quickly.
  • Coding basics: You know the basics of coding in any language and of SQL.
  • AI-native workflow: You already use AI to build, debug and learn faster.
  • English: You're comfortable working in English.

➡️ What we can offer you

  • A senior mentor: You get one-on-one time every week with an experienced engineer.
  • Direct access to your manager: You have a manager you can go to throughout your internship, beyond your mentor.
  • An AI-first environment: AI is part of how the whole team builds, from day one.
  • Onboarding: A dedicated learning program, documentation, pair programming and your mentor will get you up to speed quickly.

➡️ Your future team

You'll join one of Qonto's backend squads. Each squad has full ownership of its product scope and works with Product and Design. You'll be part of a 190+ backend engineering community, from all over the world. Our methodology, the Qonto Way

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
