The Highlights 

As an intern at Volano you will be an integral part of a collaborative team working together through our agile process to deliver quality software. The project will involve a full tech stack, but we will tailor your technical focus based on your strengths and interests. This can include C# ASP.NET, Vue.js, Angular, Typescript, JavaScript, Ionic, CSS, SQL, and others. 

What To Expect 

Our intern will work on a project with a team that includes a lead developer, project manager, and other developers. The project is defined in a statement of work and the scope is broken down into features, user stories, and tasks in Azure DevOps.  The project team, including the intern, will pick which tasks are to be worked on during the two-week sprint.  The intern will work directly with the other developers to fully understand the requirements, get any assistance needed to complete the task at hand, receive a code review, and participate in the iteration meeting.  The project team will follow Volano’s agile development methodology to ultimately deliver the final software to the client. 

Responsibilities 

Our most successful interns come to Volano with a strong desire to learn, have the ability to pick up and retain new concepts quickly, and want to collaborate with the rest of the team by clarifying requirements and seeking assistance when beneficial. 

As part of the team, you will be responsible to: 

• Follow Volano’s standards and best practices. 
• Submit pull requests and receive constructive feedback. 
• Request additional tasks as needed. 
• Effectively communicate roadblocks. 
• Participate in project meetings (e.g. sprint planning, iterations, stand-ups).
