Software Engineering InternLocation: Remote / Hybrid
Job Type: Internship (Software Engineering)About the Role
North Sails designs and builds sails for everything from club racers to America's Cup boats and Ultim trimarans. Behind every victory on the water sits a dedicated software team building the proprietary design and engineering tools that make it possible.
We are looking for aSoftware Engineering Internto build and launch a real internal tool from concept to production. You will deliver a high-impact application with real users, a real deadline, and full support from our engineering team.
The Project
Sail graphics are currently quoted through a legacy tool embedded in an ageing application. You will rebuild this system inReact and C#as an integrated module within our new manufacturing platform covering orders, quoting, and invoicing. Because the core platform already handles authentication, you will inherit a working single sign-on (SSO) system and jump straight into feature re Deliverables:
Database Design: Stand up a schema within our existing database architecture.
Security & Access: Implement role-based access control (RBAC) on top of the platform's existing SSO.
Data Integration: Populate order data via API calls to existing internal systems.
Pricing Engine: Implement complex pricing formulae and create an admin interface to maintain them.
Document Generation: Generate PDF quotes and track them through the approval process.
Stretch Goal:
Extend the platform to generate PDF work tickets carrying manufacturing instructions to the shop floor.
Why This Internship Is Different
Direct User Impact: The user base is small and highly accessible. You will sit directly with the people who use the tool, gather requirements yourself, and deploy code to production not a sandbox.
Mentorship & Team Culture: You will receive continuous support, including code reviews, regular check-ins, and hands-on guidance from experienced engineers.
What We Are Looking For
Education & Eligibility Requirements: Enrolled in a Bachelor's or Master's program throughout the internship. Open to Italian residents with a validCodice Fiscaleand, for non-EU nationals, a validPermesso di Soggiorno.
Technical Exposure: Familiarity withReact, C#, SQL , andcloud platformsis a plus, but attitude matters more than experience.
Ownership Mindset: Someone who asks questions, chases down requirements, and takes end-to-end ownership of their work.
AI-Assisted Engineering: Comfortable using modern AI coding tools and equally comfortable explaining, defending, and understanding every line of code you ship.
What You Will Learn
Modern AI-assisted software development and how to identify tool limitations.
Azure cloud servicesand deployment pipelines usingAzure Dev Ops (CI/CD).
End-to-end requirements gathering with real internal business stakeholders.
Professional engineering best practices: git workflows, code review, testing, and release management.
