Stipend: Rs. 10,000 per month

Company Description

Hello Recruiter is an AI-powered recruiting platform that conducts autonomous conversational interviews using intelligent digital avatars. We're a small, fast-moving team building the future of hiring.

Role Description

We are looking for a Software Engineering Intern to learn and grow with our team. You'll work alongside senior engineers, starting with smaller tasks and gradually taking on more responsibility as you ramp up. This is a learning-first role—we'll invest time in teaching you, and in return, you'll contribute real work to our product.

What You Will Do

Months 1-2: Learn & Support

- Get familiar with our codebase, tools, and workflows

- Fix bugs and handle small UI improvements

- Write and improve documentation

- Assist with testing and QA tasks

Months 3-4: Contribute

- Build small, well-defined features with guidance

- Write unit tests for existing code

- Help with code cleanup and refactoring

- Participate in code reviews (receiving feedback, learning patterns)

Months 5-6: Own

- Take ownership of a small feature or project end-to-end

- Contribute more independently with less hand-holding

- Mentor newer team members if applicable

What We Are Looking For

Must Have:

- Currently pursuing or recently completed a degree in CS, IT, or related field

- Basic understanding of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript

- Familiarity with Git (clone, commit, push, pull requests)

- Ability to read and understand existing code

- Good communication skills in English (written)

- Reliable internet connection and dedicated workspace for remote work

- Available for at least 6 hours/day during India business hours

Good to Have:

- Some experience with React or any frontend framework

- Exposure to Python or Node.js

- Personal projects or coursework you can show us

- Curiosity about AI—you don't need to know how it works, just be interested

What We Offer

- Hands-on experience at an early-stage AI startup

- Direct mentorship from senior engineers

- Exposure to modern tech stack (React, Next.js, Python, AI APIs)

- Flexible remote work

- Real work on a real product—not busy work

- Possibility of full-time offer based on performance

Honest Expectations

- You won't be building AI models or architecting systems—that's not what interns do

- You'll spend the first few weeks mostly reading code and asking questions

- Some tasks will be tedious (bug fixes, documentation)—that's part of learning

- We expect you to be proactive: ask when stuck, but try first

- Remote work requires discipline—we'll check in regularly but won't micromanage
