What is a Software Engineering Apprenticeship job?

A Software Engineering Apprenticeship is a structured, hands-on training program that allows individuals to gain real-world software development experience while working under the guidance of experienced engineers. Apprentices typically work on coding projects, collaborate with teams, and learn industry best practices. These programs are designed for individuals with little to no professional experience and often serve as a pathway to a full-time software engineering role.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Software Engineering Apprenticeship position, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Software Engineering Apprentice, you need a solid grasp of programming fundamentals, problem-solving abilities, and a relevant educational background such as coursework in computer science or related fields. Familiarity with modern development tools, version control systems like Git, and at least one popular programming language (such as Python, Java, or JavaScript) is typically expected. Strong communication, eagerness to learn, and teamwork skills set successful apprentices apart. These competencies ensure you can effectively contribute to projects, absorb knowledge quickly, and adapt to fast-paced engineering teams.

What kind of mentorship or training can I expect during a Software Engineering Apprenticeship?

As a Software Engineering Apprentice, you’ll usually receive structured mentorship from experienced developers who guide you through technical challenges and review your code. Many programs offer a mix of hands-on project work, regular check-ins, and formal training sessions to help build your skills incrementally. You may have the chance to rotate across teams or work with different specialists, giving you exposure to various technologies and work styles. This supportive environment not only accelerates your learning but also prepares you for a successful transition into a full-time software engineering role.

Purchasing Platform

Chicago, IL • Remote

$127.70K - $167.40K/yr

Part-time

Posted 14 days ago

Job description

We’re transforming property tech! 

Purchasing Platform Inc. is a next generation marketplace serving the property management sector. Leveraging our market knowledge and tech savvy, we revolutionize the procurement of products and services across the property management sector. By centralizing procurement, our software brings stronger corporate controls and greater spend visibility to portfolio operators of all sizes.

About the Role

We're looking for a Software Engineering Apprentice to help us build, integrate, and ship AI-powered features on top of our existing product. You'll work directly with our engineering team in Ruby and JavaScript/TypeScript, writing real code in our production stack from day one — not toy projects or sandboxed exercises.

A core part of this role is using AI tools to replace fragile, manual processes with scalable automation — connecting systems across Sales, Operations, and Product so that our team spends less time on repetitive work and more time on things that matter.

We are not looking for someone who will manage the status quo. We want someone who ships, iterates, and actively looks for the next thing to improve.

Apprenticeship Details

Job Title: Software Engineering Apprentice  

Type: Part-Time (20 hrs/week)    

Location: Hybrid in Chicago, IL (1-2 days in office per week)

Compensation: Paid

Length of Apprenticeship: 6-months

Estimated Start Date: June 1, 2026

This is a paid, part-time role (20 hrs/week) with a genuine path to full-time employment for the right person. You will be expected to roll up your sleeves, ask good questions, and take ownership of your work from day one.

What you’ll be doing

Key Responsibilities

Software Development

  • Write clean, well-tested code in Ruby and JavaScript/TypeScript alongside our engineering team
  • Build and ship product features end-to-end — from scoping and implementation through deployment and monitoring
  • Contribute to code reviews, technical discussions, and engineering best practices
  • Debug and improve existing systems, reducing technical debt and fragile manual workarounds

AI Integration & Automation

  • Build AI-powered features and workflows using LLM APIs (Anthropic, OpenAI, etc.) in our existing stack
  • Connect internal and third-party tools via APIs and integrations (CRMs, project trackers, databases)
  • Partner cross-functionally with Sales, Ops, and Product to identify and automate high-impact manual processes
  • Document integration patterns, experiments, and results clearly for the wider team

What You'll Own

  • Features shipped per quarter — measured by test coverage and production stability
  • Reduction in manual processing time across workflows you automate — tracked against a defined roadmap
  • Quality of code contributions: well-documented, reviewed, and built with the next engineer in mind
  • Breadth and reliability of integrations built and maintained

What Success Looks Like Over the Next 6 Months

Within the first 30 days, you will have a working understanding of our codebase and stack, have shipped your first pull request to production, and identified at least one automation opportunity to bring to your manager.

By month three, you are contributing independently to feature work in Ruby and JavaScript/TypeScript, have shipped at least one AI-powered integration, and engineering trusts you to own a slice of the product.

By month six, you are being seriously evaluated for a full-time offer. Multiple workflows have been meaningfully automated, your code is stable and well-reviewed, and the team sees you as a reliable contributor across the stack.

What you'll bring to the role

What We’re Looking For

Experience & Qualifications
  • Working knowledge of Ruby or JavaScript/TypeScript — you've built something real with at least one of them
  • Familiarity with web development fundamentals: REST APIs, databases, version control with Git
  • Hands-on experience with at least one LLM API or AI framework — you've integrated AI into a project
  • Genuine curiosity about applied AI — you follow the space and have opinions about what's useful
  • Strong communicator — you can explain what you built, why it matters, and what comes next
  • High ownership mindset — you surface issues proactively and follow through without being chased

Tools We Use

  • Languages: Ruby, JavaScript / TypeScript
  • AI APIs & frameworks: Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, LangChain
  • Automation & integrations: REST APIs, webhooks, Zapier, Make (Integromat)
  • Data: PostgreSQL, Supabase, Redis
  • Dev tooling: Git / GitHub, VS Code, CI/CD via GitHub Actions
  • Collaboration: Slack, Notion, Linear — you'll be connecting AI to these too

What You'll Get

  • Competitive hourly pay — this is a paid apprenticeship
  • Direct mentorship from engineers working across our full product stack
  • Real ownership of features and automations that ship to production
  • A portfolio of shipped code and live integrations you can point to
  • A defined path to a full-time Software Engineer role
