Job details
About this role
Role overview A paid, six-week remote engineering internship starting November 1, 2026, focused on expanding the public data sources that power a government-contracting intelligence platform. The role combines software development, web research, and hands-on ownership of data quality, offering exposure to how a high-velocity startup builds trustworthy data products.
Responsibilities - Build and maintain data scrapers and ingestion pipelines for government data sources across the United States. - Use internal tooling and AI agents to research sources, develop extraction approaches, and accelerate implementation. - Validate data for accuracy, completeness, consistency, and reliability before it reaches the platform. - Monitor existing sources, investigate failures or upstream changes, and improve scraper resilience. - Document source behaviour, extraction logic, and data-quality checks to keep systems maintainable. - Support other technical and operational work across the company as needed.
Requirements - Experience with TypeScript; Python is also valuable for data collection and analysis. - Familiarity with web scraping or browser automation using tools such as BeautifulSoup, Playwright, or Selenium. - Comfort working with HTML, APIs, structured and unstructured data, and common formats such as JSON and CSV. - Strong attention to detail and an ownership mindset for data quality. - Familiarity with Git, debugging, and writing clear technical documentation. - Curiosity about public-sector data and persistence to work through inconsistent websites and source formats.
Nice to have - Interest in using AI agents effectively while carefully validating their output. - Technically curious mindset with a willingness to dig into unfamiliar systems; web-scraping experience is helpful but not required.
Benefits and work setup - Fully remote internship. - Paid six-week programme with a fixed start date of November 1, 2026.
