Praktikum  •  IT & Software  •  Zürich, Switzerland

<div class="show-more-less-html__markup show-more-less-html__markup--clamp-after-5 relative overflow-hidden"> We are adding a Frontend Engineer Intern to our team to help build the tools that keep businesses running. Our client is a Zurich based logistics organization that needs a new set of internal dashboards to monitor their supply chain and warehouse automation systems. In this role, you will be building the interfaces that their staff use every day to manage inventory and track shipments. This is a fully remote position where you will work alongside our senior developers to ship functional, reliable software.<br/> <br/><strong>About Pixel Systems<br/></strong> Pixel Systems is a small, remote software agency that builds the tools teams actually use. We do not do flashy consumer apps or marketing sites. Instead, we focus on the practical stuff: admin panels, CRM integrations, and the database migrations that people usually try to avoid. Our clients come to us when they need to replace a sprawling spreadsheet with a real database or get their different software tools to finally talk to one another.<br/> We believe that working code is better than a perfect plan that never ships. Our approach is straightforward. We provide fixed quotes before we start, we do weekly demos, and we hand over everything: the code, the documentation, and even walkthrough videos: when we are finished. We use reliable, well-tested technologies like Node, React, and Postgres because we want the software we build to be stable and easy to maintain. We are a senior team of developers and designers who prefer solving real operational headaches over chasing the latest trends.<br/> <br/><strong>The Role<br/></strong> As a Frontend Engineer Intern, you will focus on the parts of the software that users interact with. Your work will involve building components, layouts, and data visualizations for the Zurich logistics project and other internal business tools. This is a full-time internship where you will be an active part of our development cycle.<ul> <li>Translating design mockups into functional web components using React.</li> <li>Building and styling data tables, forms, and navigation menus that are easy to use.</li> <li>Connecting frontend interfaces to our backend APIs to display real-time logistics data.</li> <li>Testing layouts across different browsers to make sure everything works as intended.</li> <li>Cleaning up legacy CSS and improving the consistency of existing user interfaces.</li> <li>Participating in weekly demos to show our progress to the client.</li> <li>Documenting the components you build so other developers can understand how they work.</li> <br/><br/></ul><strong>What You Bring<br/></strong> We are looking for someone who is organized and understands that code is for people to read as much as it is for computers to run. This role is about building interfaces that are useful and durable rather than flashy.<ul> <li>A solid understanding of HTML and CSS, including how to structure a page correctly.</li> <li>Base knowledge of JavaScript, including how to work with objects, arrays, and logic.</li> <li>The ability to follow technical instructions and ask for clarification when a task is unclear.</li> <li>A preference for simple solutions over complex ones.</li> <li>Good written communication skills, which are essential in our remote environment.</li> <li>Basic familiarity with command line tools and web browsers.</li> <li>The patience to debug layout issues and the discipline to write clean code.</li> <br/><br/></ul><strong>Helpful Background<br/></strong> While we do not expect you to be an expert in everything, having some familiarity with the following tools will help you get started in this internship:<ul> <li>Experience building a project with React or a similar frontend framework.</li> <li>Basic knowledge of Git and how to use GitHub to commit and push code.</li> <li>Familiarity with how to fetch data from an API and display it on a page.</li> <li>An interest in how logistics or back-office operations work.</li> <li>Previous experience with CSS frameworks or pre-processors.</li> <li>A personal project or coursework that demonstrates a curiosity for software development.</li> <br/><br/></ul><strong>Working at Pixel Systems<br/></strong> Working here is different from working at a large tech firm. We do not have layers of middle management or long meetings about abstract strategy. We are a small team of senior professionals who value practical results and a quiet work environment. This position is a paid internship, and we offer a competitive rate that is attractive for this role and the current market.<br/> Because we are 100 percent remote, you will have the flexibility to work from your own space. We stay connected through clear documentation and regular, focused check ins. You will work on real production code that solves actual problems for warehouse managers and operations teams. You will see exactly how software is built, quoted, and handed over to a client in a professional agency setting. We value honesty and pragmatism, and we expect everyone on the team to be reliable and respectful of our collective time.<br/> We take pride in building stable software. When our clients call us, it is usually because we solve their problems without adding unnecessary complexity. You will learn the habits of professional engineers who care about maintenance and reliability. We keep the team small and the drama low. You will finish this internship with a better understanding of how to build tools that provide actual value to a business while working in a professional, remote environment. </div>
