We are a small analog photography lab and shop in the heart of Kreuzberg. Besides our lab and store, we run our own website and online shop — and we're looking for a web developer intern who wants to help us build and improve it.

What we do:

• We develop and maintain our website (Next.js, React) and the shop (Medusa, e-commerce).
• We work on the frontend (UI, checkout, product pages), APIs, and internal tools.
• We care about performance, accessibility and a good experience for our customers.

Who we're looking for:

• You're learning or already comfortable with JavaScript/TypeScript and React (or similar).
• You're curious about Next.js, modern frontend tooling and/or e-commerce.
• You like to work in a small team, ask questions and learn by doing.
• You don't need to be an expert — motivation and willingness to learn matter more.

What you'll do:

• Support us with frontend tasks (components, pages, styling).
• Optionally: small backend/API or tooling tasks, depending on your interests.
• You'll work with our codebase, get feedback and see your work go live.

Duration: By arrangement — a few weeks, a few months, whatever works. Part-time or full-time, on-site, hybrid or remote.

We offer: Real tasks, code reviews, a friendly team and a fair internship setup. You'll get to know both analog photography and a production web stack.

Interested? Send a short email to info@fotokotti.de: tell us about yourself, what you've built or learned so far, and when you'd like to start.
