About the RoleWe’re looking for a DevOps Engineering Intern who wants to improve how systems are built, tested, and shipped—not just maintain pipelines.

You’ll work on CI/CD, infrastructure-as-code, release automation, and developer tooling in a fast-moving environment where systems and workflows evolve constantly. This means building reliable pipelines, improving deployment safety, and enabling engineers to move faster without breaking things.

You’ll collaborate closely with founders and engineers to shape how software is delivered in production. Your work will directly impact developer velocity, system reliability, and release confidence.

If you enjoy automating workflows, fixing bottlenecks, and improving how teams ship software, this role will push you to grow quickly.

What You Will DoDesign, implement, and maintain CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions or GitLab CI)

Manage build, test, and release workflows across services

Work with infrastructure-as-code tools (Terraform or Pulumi)

Improve Docker-based build and deployment processes

Implement safe rollout strategies (canary, blue-green, feature flags)

Integrate quality, security, and observability checks into pipelines

Build internal tools to improve developer productivity

Document pipelines, environments, and operational runbooks

What We’re Looking ForFamiliarity with CI/CD tools like GitHub Actions or GitLab CI

Basic understanding of Docker and container workflows

Exposure to infrastructure-as-code concepts (Terraform or Pulumi)

Understanding of Git workflows and release practices

Interest in improving developer experience and automation

Ability to operate in fast-changing, ambiguous environments

Founding MindsetYou think in terms of outcomes (faster, safer shipping), not configs

You ask “why does this pipeline matter?” before building

You take ownership of deployment reliability

You balance short-term fixes with long-term improvements

You proactively identify and remove bottlenecks

BonusExperience setting up CI/CD for multi-service or microservice systems

Exposure to security checks or compliance in pipelines

Experience with feature flags or rollout strategies

Familiarity with Kubernetes basics

What Success Looks LikeWithin 4–6 weeks, you should be able to:

Own CI/CD pipelines for a subset of services

Reduce friction and failures in deployments

Identify and fix bottlenecks in build and release workflows

Improve developer confidence and velocity

What You’ll GetHands-on experience running CI/CD for production systems

Direct collaboration with founders and engineering teams

Ownership of meaningful automation and infrastructure improvements

A portfolio of pipelines, tooling, and system improvements

A strong pathway into DevOps, platform, or infrastructure engineering roles

Who This Is Not ForIf you only want to follow predefined runbooks

If you avoid ambiguity or production-adjacent systems

If you prefer rigid, slow-moving infrastructure environments

If you’re looking for a low-pressure internship

Who Will Thrive HereBuilders who enjoy making teams faster and more reliable

Engineers who think across code, infrastructure, and workflows

Calm debuggers of broken pipelines and failed deployments
