Job Summary

Exegy is seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Software Automation Developer Intern to join our Montreal-based Software Automation team. This internship offers hands-on experience treating software testing and automation as pure software development—building scalable capabilities, backend testing utilities, and reusable code that power our market data platforms. Working alongside experienced engineers, you will gain real-world exposure to high-performance financial technology systems. You will contribute directly to automated testing frameworks, support CI/CD pipeline integrations, and learn how quality is engineered into production-grade software across the entire Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC).

Responsibilities

Assist in building and maintaining reusable automated test scripts, libraries, and utilities primarily using Python
Help integrate automated test coverage, validation gates, and health checks into CI/CD pipelines (such as GitLab CI or Jenkins)
Focus on writing clean, maintainable, and reusable code for functional, integration, regression, and system testing across Exegy products
Develop a practical understanding of financial markets, trading systems, market data platforms, and high-performance software environments
Support exploratory efforts to incorporate developer-assistance tools and modern AI platforms (such as Claude and Gemini) into test generation, log analysis, and diagnostic workflows
Participate in team code reviews, sprint activities, and technical discussions. Document test results, framework usage, and bug reports clearly and concisely

Our Ideal Candidate Has

Strong foundational knowledge and hands-on experience using Python (coursework, personal projects, research, or prior internships)
Exposure to C++ or Linux environments is a plus
Currently pursuing a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field
Strong desire to replace manual testing with reliable, repeatable, and maintainable automated code
Basic understanding of object-oriented design, version control (Git), and writing reusable code components
An interest in learning about financial technology, trading systems, market data, and the broader SDLC
Strong analytical thinking, problem-solving skills, and clear verbal/written communication in a team-oriented environment

What You’ll Gain

Hands-on software development experience in a high-performance production environment
Deep technical insight into financial market infrastructure and trading systems
Direct mentorship from experienced automation and software engineers
Exposure to modern SDLC practices, test automation design, and CI/CD automation pipelines
The opportunity to build meaningful, reusable software tools used by engineering teams globally
