About GoKwik
GoKwik is building the growth operating system for D2C and eCommerce brands, helping businesses optimise checkout, reduce RTO, enable payments, drive retention, and strengthen post-purchase engagement. With 15,000+ merchants globally and a growing presence across India, the UK, Europe, and the US, GoKwik is building AI-powered infrastructure that enables brands to grow faster and operate better.
Why This Role Matters
We are an engineering-led technology company building and operating large-scale commerce infrastructure. Our multi-tenant platform serves multiple independent businesses, managing their catalogues, orders, inventory, pricing and customer data while handling millions of API calls every week.
We are looking for a Software Development Intern who wants to work on real production systems, build scalable applications and solve engineering challenges that directly impact businesses. You will be part of an engineering team, taking ownership of well-defined tasks from development to release, with mentorship from experienced engineers.
We follow an AI-first engineering approach, and you will be encouraged to use AI coding tools across development, testing and debugging while maintaining complete ownership and understanding of everything you build.
What You'll Own
- Work on live services and take engineering tasks end to end, from understanding requirements and planning to development, testing, code reviews and release.
- Build and extend REST APIs using Node.js and TypeScript, with appropriate input validation, error handling and pagination.
- Develop and improve frontend components in React and TypeScript, including tables, forms and admin console interfaces.
- Write SQL queries, work with relational databases and understand query performance and indexing.
- Develop unit and integration tests and contribute to improving application reliability.
- Debug production issues using logs, monitoring tools and systematic problem-solving.
- Use AI coding tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot or similar tools for coding, testing, debugging and documentation.
- Contribute to LLM-powered features and internal tools, including prompt engineering and structured outputs.
- Participate in code reviews, incorporate feedback and follow engineering best practices.
Who You Are
- Pursuing or recently completed a B.Tech/B.E. in Computer Science, Engineering or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
- Strong fundamentals in Data Structures, Algorithms, problem-solving and debugging.
- Hands-on programming experience in JavaScript/TypeScript (preferred) or another mainstream programming language.
- At least one end-to-end project, preferably involving a backend API or web application, that you can explain in depth.
- Basic understanding of SQL, including joins, filtering, aggregations and database indexes.
- Understanding of web fundamentals, including HTTP, REST APIs, status codes and client-server architecture.
- Regular experience using AI coding tools, with the ability to evaluate and validate AI-generated code.
- Familiarity with Git, pull requests and basic code review workflows.
- Strong communication skills, curiosity and a willingness to learn.
Why GoKwik
At GoKwik, you will work on real-world engineering challenges and production systems rather than isolated projects. You will gain hands-on experience building scalable technology, working with modern engineering stacks and using AI tools as part of your development workflow, while learning directly from experienced engineers.
