Job Description

Software Engineer Intern (Backend Focus)

Commitment: Part-time (20–40 hrs/week), 3–6 month internship (unpaid)

About Us

We’re building software that automates the creation of daily blog posts, running SEO research, and integrating affiliate links/ads. As a Full-Stack Intern, you’ll join a small team to architect and maintain the backend systems that power AI-driven content generation and deployment.

What You’ll Do

  • Design & Build Flask APIs
    • Create endpoints to manage “Sites,” “Topics,” and “Posts.”
    • Integrate with third-party services (Shopify REST API, SEO data APIs, affiliate/ads APIs).
  • AI Content Pipeline
    • Develop modules that call OpenAI (GPT-4/GPT-3.5) with structured prompts.
    • Post-process AI output (Markdown/HTML sanitation, replacing link placeholders).
  • Automated SEO Research
    • Consume SEO metrics (search volume, difficulty, CPC) from Ahrefs/SEMRush APIs.
    • Calculate “priority scores” for keywords and schedule new content automatically.
  • Scheduler & Background Jobs
    • Configure APScheduler (or Celery) to run nightly tasks:
    – Refresh SEO data
    – Recompute scores
    – Auto-generate new draft posts

What You’ll Learn

  • AI & LLM Integration: Crafting prompts, handling model responses, and post-processing content.
  • Automation at Scale: Orchestrating nightly pipelines for SEO data, content generation, and publishing.
  • Full-Stack Development: Database modeling, Flask API design, minimal front-end/admin UI.
  • E-Commerce & Third-Party Integrations: Working with Shopify’s REST API and various affiliate/SEO APIs.
  • DevOps Best Practices: Containerization, CI/CD workflows, and deploying a production-grade Flask app.

What We Offer

  • Mentorship & Growth: Direct guidance from a senior engineer; regular code reviews and feedback.
  • Real Ownership: Work on production systems that publish daily content across multiple sites.
  • Portfolio-Building Experience: Your work will be integral to a large-scale automation platform.
