Learning and inclusivity are integral parts of our culture at Enova, so we’re very eager to meet folks excited to start a new career in technology and invite them to join our team as apprentices on a full-time basis with salary and benefits. Our apprentices engage in an immersive learning program designed to prepare novice engineers with the skills to meet real business challenges by troubleshooting a broad variety of issues, implementing automated tools, evaluating processes, and resolving complex problems. At the end of six months, apprentices should be prepared to join a team of experienced engineers, and to contribute and collaborate with confidence.

We regularly troubleshoot and resolve operational issues, and assist during production incident investigations. We build scripts and tools using Ruby, and Python. 

After the initial time spent in training, you will enter the SRE auto-assignment rotation to troubleshoot different production issues, in parallel with a capstone project drawn from our queue of projects with high business value. In addition to periodic troubleshooting pairing sessions and code reviews with senior engineers, you will be asked to do a final presentation to the entire department. Once your project and presentation have been completed, the same folks who you’ve worked with will evaluate the results you’ve achieved during your time at Enova and decide the details of any offer of further employment.
