Internship – Development & Process Automation (n8n / API)
Want to help drive innovation at Alcyconie? Join us for an internship at the heart of our projects, alongside our COO and our IT Manager, and take on real-world challenges!
Since its founding, Alcyconie has grown around a unique positioning: combining high-level expertise, innovation, and operational excellence in support of business continuity and cyber and digital crisis management.
To support its growth and improve the efficiency of its operations, Alcyconie is continuing to automate and interconnect its internal tools and processes. In this context, we are looking for a development and automation intern to help design, develop, and strengthen the reliability of our workflows, particularly with n8n.
You will work on hands-on projects at the core of the company’s operations: CRM automation, website form integration, operational reporting, data flow and reliability across our various tools, etc.
WHAT WE OFFER
You will build on an existing operational foundation, with workflows already in place and integrations in production, to continue their development and support the scaling up of our operations.
Your role will be to evolve our automation ecosystem, taking over existing developments and designing new integrations that meet the company’s needs.
In practice, you will:
- Get to grips with the existing setup: understand the n8n workflows already developed, their architecture, the connections between tools, and the integrations in production.
- Take part in designing automations: analyze needs with the Director of Operations, formalize business rules, and propose suitable technical solutions.
- Develop new workflows: design, adapt, and enhance n8n automations, drawing in particular on REST APIs, webhooks, JavaScript, and data processing.
- Connect our business tools: contribute to integrating and synchronizing our various solutions (CRM, web forms, reporting tools, internal applications, etc.).
- Make automated processes more reliable: implement data checks, error handling, and mechanisms for duplicate prevention, logging, and alerting.
- Test and deploy solutions: run tests on dummy or anonymized data, fix bugs, and prepare production releases in coordination with the IT team.
- Document developments and ensure their longevity: produce clear technical documentation, facilitate workflow maintenance, and contribute to their continuous improvement.
The goal: to build automations that are useful, robust, and actually used by the teams every day.
- Contract type: internship with a signed internship agreement (required).
- Duration: 6 months.
- Reports to: Director of Operations, with technical support from the IT team.
- Stipend: in accordance with applicable rules and your course of study.
- Training
The position is based in Saint-Malo.
WHAT DEFINES YOU
- You are pursuing a first- or second-year Master’s degree (M1 or M2) in computer science, software development, software engineering, information systems, or an equivalent technical field, and are looking for a 6-month internship under an internship agreement.
- You have good programming foundations, particularly in JavaScript, and have mastered the fundamentals of REST APIs, HTTP exchanges, and the JSON format.
- You are interested in process automation and application integration. Initial hands-on experience with n8n or an equivalent solution is expected, whether through academic, personal, or professional projects.
- You are able to understand existing code, analyze a need, design a solution, and test that it works properly.
- You are mindful of development best practices and security issues: access and secrets management, confidentiality, and data protection.
- You are able to work with technical documentation in English.
