About this Opportunity

Inmar's Summer Internship Program offers a dynamic and enriching experience designed to give students real-world exposure to a professional environment while contributing meaningfully to company initiatives. Interns will split their time between a high-impact cross-functional team project and department-specific responsibilities assigned by their direct manager.

The Digital Promotions Network backend platform team is responsible for powering high-throughput, large-scale ingestion of transaction data through API connections, building performant APIs that back shopper-facing properties (like retailer websites and mobile apps), and managing offers at enterprise scale. The platform routinely processes ~200,000 requests per minute, millions of baskets daily, and more than 7.47 billion baskets in 2024, maintaining 99.9%+ uptime.

As a Backend Platform Intern, you will gain hands-on exposure to the full software engineering lifecycle from requirements and design, to coding, testing, deployment, and monitoring while learning best practices in an enterprise environment. You'll also gain insight into how engineering collaborates with client support through exposure to our Tech Ops Support team, which provides advanced troubleshooting for both internal and external partners. This unique combination of engineering and operational experience will prepare you for success in backend and distributed systems development.

What You'll Do

As a Backend Platform Intern on the Digital Promotions Network team, you'll contribute to enterprise-grade systems that power the digital promotions ecosystem for major retailers and brands.

This internship will give you exposure to the full software engineering lifecycle in a fast-paced, high-volume production environment, while also broadening your perspective through hands-on collaboration with both engineering and support teams.
