Die Rolle

The core backend of the Envision App and Glasses has grown significantly in the past year. The backend consists of Firebase and is built on GCP. The backend hosts our ML models and also consists of micro-services that power the App and Glasses. There's a fair amount of automation that needs to be happen and new services need to built on top of it.

Also, Envision currently uses Webflow for all our web development needs. We do have a few really exciting projects that we'd like to build with Webflow and integrate with our existing backends.

As a Web Developer Intern at Envision you'll have the chance to work on a variety of internal and external Web apps. As an intern, you'll be working directly with the Envision AI App, Glasses to improve the Envision backend, automate important internal systems and learn how complex machine learning is deployed at scale.

In this role, you'll also be working with the Envision's Design team to build pixel-perfect, responsive, accessible landing pages and web sites using Webflow. If you're someone who truly wants to understand how good design and scalable web backends can change lives of thousands of visually impaired people the world over, then this is for you.
