What are the responsibilities and job description for the Backend Engineering Intern (Scaling & Data) position at Percival?
Must be U.S. based and an exceptional engineer.
We are an early-stage startup building a real-time prediction market for short-form content.
We just shipped our MVP and are now facing the exciting challenge of scaling our platform from day one.
We're looking for a highly motivated and curious backend engineering intern to work directly with our founding team from Harvard, Brown, and Wesleyan on the core challenges of data ingestion, system performance, and cloud infrastructure.
This is a rare opportunity to get hands-on experience with the foundational architectural problems that fast-growing startups face. You won't be fixing minor bugs; you'll be helping us research, prototype, and build the very systems that will allow us to scale.
