- You'll collaborate closely with industry-leading engineers, getting the opportunity to work in a team environment
- You’ll learn all aspects of the development lifecycle - experimentation, design, coding, code reviews - while also growing your knowledge of different technologies, and seeing your hard work shipped to Jobber customers worldwide

- We are looking for one intern for each of the following teams:
- Our SC First Touch team helps small home service businesses interface with their customers with an emphasis on the initial contact. Our current work is focused on enabling Service Customers (SCs) to book appointments online, so Jobber users can win work for our Service Providers (SPs) while they sleep
- The Workday team aims to enhance day-of-work experience for fieldworkers, customers, and business administrators. The team owns a suite of tools tailored for fieldworkers on the go, as well as supporting business administrators in organizational tasks. This means you will have hands-on experience working with both our mobile and web applications, providing valuable exposure to the intersection of technology and business operations
- Past projects our Interns have worked on include:
- Location Timers: making our SP's time tracking super easy for scheduling, payroll, and more
- Online Booking: allowing our SPs to win more work with less effort. SPs can share their booking page so their customers can book services directly into their calendars
- Filters and Searching functionality: to let our SPs access their most critical or used data types and patterns quickly and easily
- Database and model advancement: giving our SPs greater autonomy for future application requests
- Logic improvements: an opportunity to manipulate elements of our software to automate account changes and key feature additions successfully.!
- Revision of 3rd Party Mechanism: an update of queries responding to some of our SP’s most favoured features

Our take
For businesses that sell home services, it can be difficult keeping up with paperwork, scheduling appointments, and chasing payments, especially when their teams are small. Jobber delivers a comprehensive toolbox to keep track of all these aspects, so that small business owners can concentrate on more important things like serving their customers and building their brand.
Jobber was founded in 2011, initially to help a friend who owned a small painting business. The founders quickly discovered that what they were building could help many more owners across a number of industries, going on to launch the product which is now used by over 300,000 home service professionals in over 60 countries.
What makes Jobber stand out is that it collects all the vital parts of running a home services business into one place, removing the burden of keeping track of multiple sources of information. The company has seen significant funding which it has invested in R&D and growing its customer base, and boasts four consecutive years on The Globe and Mail's Canada's Top Growing Companies List.
