At Nexal IIT, we're doing things differently. This isn't a traditional job or a standard internship—it’s an open collaboration program designed for aspiring backend developers to gain hands-on, real-world experience. If you are self-taught, a boot-camp graduate, a student, or transitioning careers, this is a space for you to write actual production code, build your portfolio, and learn by doing alongside our team.

What You’ll Do

Use Git and GitHub to manage version control, push backend updates, and participate in code reviews with the team.
