The Role:
About the Neo4j Customer Support Operations Team:
Neo4j Customer Support Operations is a highly effective part of Neo4j’s Field Engineering organisation and provides a key foundation for the long-term success and satisfaction of our growing customer base. Neo4j Customer Support Operations serves as an interface between traditional Customer Support and Product Engineering teams to develop the subject matter expertise within Customer Support, as well as developing highly-customised tools and processes to accelerate and enhance our overall service delivery.
Project Outline:
CODEX is our bespoke, in-house developed support diagnostics system that we use extensively within both Customer Support and Product Engineering.
This tool performs automatic log and metric analysis of customer diagnostic collections and provides the output for engineers to read.
This tool is currently using the Plotly Javascript library for visualising key metrics and events, however this has reached some limitations since it was implemented. As such, we would like to perform a feasibility study into replacing this with Apache ECharts instead.
There may be some other Support Operations intern projects occurring during this summer. Of course, we will be very happy to discuss working across multiple projects if there are specific areas of interest that you would like to explore; or, where collaboration with other interns would be beneficial.
Key Skills:
This project will look into the feasibility of enhancing an existing production system that is already widely used within Neo4j. As such, the technologies are constrained.
The ideal candidate for this internship would be experienced in, or ready to begin working with the following technologies. For any Neo4j-developed frameworks and technologies, assistance and access to the development teams will be provided so prior experience with these technologies is beneficial but not required.
Specifically on the frontend, we’re currently using:
- Typescript / Javascript frontend UI
- React framework
- Neo4j Design Library (NDL, “needle”) frontend component design library
- Tanstack / React Router
- Tanstack / React Query
In addition to this, the frontend will interact with our existing backend REST API service, which is using:
- Java
- Spring Boot framework
- Neo4j Graph Database
- Okta single sign-on authentication
At the heart of the project, the data is produced by the backend analysis system which hosts another REST API service built on:
- Java
- Spring Boot framework
Project Outline:
- Familiarise yourself with the current CODEX environment
- Frontend UI application
- Backend REST API server
- Backend Analysis system
- Familiarise yourself with the Apache ECharts library
- Understand how data is used and visualised within CODEX
- Test producing example user interfaces with the ECharts library replacing the current Plotly implementation
- Assess the feasibility of rolling this change out across the whole of the CODEX environment
- Present your findings back to the CODEX development team
- If tests are successful, work on implementing further charts where time allows
We really want to ensure your time with us is both engaging and entertaining, so we are always open to discussions regarding any specific areas we can focus on during your internship which help achieve your goals as well as ours.
When applying for this position, please write:
- If there is one project that interests you more than the others
- If you are mostly specialized in front-end or back-end development or if you are equally interested in both
Location:
- Malmö, Sweden
Working in the office with our Product Engineering teams.
Regular interactions with Customer Support Operations Team mentors both in-person in Malmö, and remotely.
