The Role

We are seeking a proactive and technically-inclined DevOps Intern to assist with an important infrastructure modernization project. The core mission of this internship will be to support the migration of our source code repositories from GitHub to GitLab and to convert our existing Continuous Integration (CI) pipelines from Jenkins to native GitLab CI/CD.

This role offers an opportunity to gain practical experience in version control systems, CI/CD automation, and modern DevOps workflows. You will work with our engineering and infrastructure teams to help ensure a smooth transition, contributing to the improvement of our development lifecycle.

Responsibilities

Source Code Repository Migration (GitHub to GitLab):

• Execute the migration of git repositories, preserving the complete commit history, branches, tags, and other metadata.
• Develop and use scripts to automate the transfer process for multiple repositories.
• Conduct post-migration validation to check for data integrity and repository functionality.
  
  

CI Pipeline Migration (Jenkins To GitLab CI/CD)

• Analyze and document existing Jenkins pipelines to understand build triggers, stages, testing steps, and deployment logic.
• Leverage AI-based tools to assist in converting Jenkins pipeline configurations into GitLab's .gitlab-ci.yml format and create reusable build components,
• Integrate various build tools, testing frameworks, static analysis tools (linters), and security scanners into the new GitLab CI jobs.
• Configure and manage GitLab Runners as needed.
• Test and debug the new GitLab CI/CD pipelines to ensure they are reliable, efficient, and functionally equivalent to the previous Jenkins jobs.
  
  

Documentation And Support

• Create clear documentation for both the repository and pipeline migration processes.
• Assist in troubleshooting and resolving developer issues related to the new tooling.
  
  

Required Skills

• Currently enrolled in a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree program in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Systems, or a related technical field.
• Understanding of Git version control principles (e.g., branching, merging, pull requests).
• A knowledge of what CI/CD is and the problems it solves.
• Good problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
• Good written and verbal communication skills.
• A desire to learn and the ability to work independently on a defined project.
  
  

Preferred Skills

• Hands-on experience with Git on the command line.
• Previous exposure to GitHub and/or GitLab platforms.
• Familiarity with at least one CI/CD tool (Jenkins, CircleCI, Travis CI, GitHub Actions, etc.).
• Experience with a scripting language such as Bash, Python, or PowerShell.
• Basic understanding of Docker and containerization concepts.
• Familiarity with common software build tools (e.g., Maven, Gradle, npm, pip).
  
  

What You'll Gain

• Hands-on experience with industry-standard DevOps tools (GitLab, Jenkins, Docker).
• An understanding of the principles and practices behind CI/CD and automation.
• Experience in planning and executing a technical migration project.
• The opportunity to make an impact on a real-world software development environment.
• Mentorship from experienced DevOps and software engineers.
