Job description

Every day, the world gets more digital thanks to tens of millions of developers building the future faster than ever. But with exponential growth comes exponential risk, as outnumbered security teams struggle to secure mountains of code. This is where Snyk (pronounced “sneak”) comes in. Snyk is a developer security platform that makes it easy for development teams to find, prioritize, and fix security vulnerabilities in code, dependencies, containers, and cloud infrastructure — and do it all right from the start. Snyk is on a mission to make the world a more secure place by empowering developers to develop fast and stay secure.

Our Opportunity

Are you passionate about building seamless product experiences? Thrive in a fast-paced R&D environment? Excited to help developers work faster and more secure? We're seeking an intelligent, proactive, and motivated intern to join our team and help grow and enhance our products. 

As a R&D Engineer Co-Op at Snyk, you'll use your development skills, passion, and problem-solving abilities to create software that ensures the security of other software products.

You’ll Spend Your Time:

• Collaborate with our engineers to understand project guidelines and contribute to the development process
• Using best practices and new technologies to maintain and extend our existing services
• Working across the full stack and entire development life cycle to build, test, deploy, and support high-quality, reliable, fast services
• Promote code quality through reviews and best practices 
• Working directly with our products that are used by developers globally
• Outside of your day-to-day role you’ll get to network within Snyk, join Impact events, build on your soft and professional skills

What You’ll Need:

• Be able to work out of our office in Ottawa, Canada
• Familiarity with programing languages such as JavaScript and Go
• Opportunity to learn and develop coding skills
• Proactive attitude and accountability along with an appreciation for independence
• Eagerness to learn new technologies and adapt to change 

We care deeply about the warm, inclusive environment we’ve created and we value diversity – we welcome applications from those typically underrepresented in tech. If you like the sound of this role but are not totally sure whether you’re the right person, do apply anyway!
