Anakin (YC S21) | min. 6 months to 12 month Internship | PPO Track Location: HSR Layout, Bangalore (In-office, Mon–Fri) Stipend: ₹25,000/month Duration: minimum 6 month and max. 12 months
About Anakin
Anakin is the data engine behind real-time competitive intelligence of global online commerce companies. We help large internet businesses understand markets faster by collecting, structuring, and generating insights from massive volumes of public web data. Our systems operate across categories, geographies, and constantly changing websites. That means the engineering problems here are not toy problems. They involve scale, reliability, anti-bot systems, dynamic pages, messy edge cases, and production pressure. If you want an internship where you mostly shadow people, this is not that. If you want to work on real systems, solve hard backend problems, and earn a serious PPO on merit, keep reading.
What this role is
This is a hands-on backend/systems internship for campus developers who want to become strong engineers early. You will work on real production-facing problems across backend systems, APIs, automation, data pipelines, scraping infrastructure, reverse engineering, debugging, and reliability. You will not be hired to “learn around the edges.” You will be expected to understand problems clearly, write code that works, debug what breaks, and improve systems with ownership. This role is designed for people who want steep learning, high accountability, and a front-row seat to how a high-speed startup engineering team operates.
Why this role is hard
This internship is hard because the problems are real. Web systems change without warning. Dynamic websites break. Anti-bot measures evolve. Production bugs rarely come with clean answers. Good code is not enough; you need judgment, debugging discipline, speed, communication, and persistence. You will be expected to:
- understand ambiguous problems quickly
- break them into workable parts
- ship clean solutions
- test edge cases
- ask for help intelligently when blocked
- recover fast when things fail
This is not a “complete one assignment and wait” internship. This is a builder’s internship.
What you will work on
- Build and scale backend systems, internal services, APIs, and data pipelines
- Work on scraping and web automation infrastructure for dynamic websites
- Debug production issues and improve reliability, performance, and maintainability
- Write clean, testable, secure, maintainable code
- Participate in code reviews, architecture/problem discussions, and testing strategy
- Benchmark tools,...
