Job Description – DevOps Intern (CI/CD, Automation & Platform Engineering)
Role Overview:
We are seeking a driven and curious DevOps Intern to support our CI/CD, automation, and
infrastructure initiatives. This role is designed for individuals who are eager to understand how
systems work end-to-end—from code to deployment environments.
The intern will gain hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines, containerization, cloud and onprem
environments, and DevOps performance metrics (DORA). This role requires a proactive
mindset, willingness to learn, and the ability to contribute in a fast-paced engineering
environment.
Key Responsibilities:
• Support CI/CD, automation, and tooling for AI-assisted software development and modern
engineering workflows.
• Identify repetitive manual tasks and develop simple automation solutions using shell or Python
scripting.
• Monitor system health, CI/CD pipelines, logs, and deployment outcomes to identify and
troubleshoot issues.
• Contribute to release processes including versioning, tagging, artifact generation, and
coordination
• Communicate progress, issues, and deployment status effectively with engineering teams and
other stakeholders.
• Assist in rollback handling and basic troubleshooting during releases
• Track and report DORA metrics (deployment frequency, lead time, change failure rate, MTTR)
• Help identify opportunities to improve deployment efficiency, reliability, and developer
productivity
• Assist in implementing DevSecOps practices including SAST, dependency scanning, and
secret management
• Work with Git workflows including branching, merge requests, and version control best
practices
• Assist in managing build artifacts, container images, and package repositories
• Gain exposure to and support tasks involving virtual machines, cloud infrastructure, and
containerized environments
• Support packaging and submission activities for applications to the Microsoft ecosystem (e.g.,
App Store, related services)
• Collaborate with engineering, DevOps, and IT teams to support day-to-day operations and
ongoing improvements
• Create and maintain technical documentation for automation, deployments, and operational
procedures.
Core Learning Areas:
During the internship, the candidate will gain practical exposure to:
• Linux systems, command-line tools, and server administration fundamentals
• Virtual machines and on-premises server environments
• Containerization using Docker
• CI/CD platforms: GitLab (repositories, merge requests, CI/CD pipelines and runners)
• Cloud-hosted infrastructure: Azure (primary), with exposure to AWS where applicable
• Basic DevSecOps practices and secure development workflows
• DevOps metrics and performance tracking (DORA metrics)
• Microsoft services and ecosystem relevant to application deployment
Required Qualifications:
• Pursuing or recently completed a degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field
• Basic understanding of DevOps principles and CI/CD concepts
• Basic understanding of Linux operating systems and command-line tools.
• Familiarity with Git and version control workflows
• Exposure to any CI/CD platform (e.g., GitLab CI, Jenkins, GitHub Actions)
• Basic scripting knowledge (Python, Bash, or similar) with an interest in automation
• Foundational understanding of infrastructure concepts (virtual machines, containers, cloud vs
on-prem environments)
• Demonstrated curiosity, self-learning ability, and willingness to explore unfamiliar
technologies.
• Comfortable working in a dynamic environment where priorities may evolve and continuous
learning is expected.
• Willingness to take ownership of assigned tasks, follow them through to completion, and seek
help when needed.
Nice to Have:
• Exposure to Docker or container-based deployments
• Awareness of DORA metrics or DevOps performance concepts
• Basic understanding of software security practices (SAST, dependency scanning, etc.)
• Familiarity with Azure or other cloud platforms
• Interest in AI-assisted development workflows
Desired Mindset & Skills:
• Curious and proactive—eager to understand how systems work beyond just completing tasks
• Automation-first mindset with interest in reducing manual effort through scripting and tooling
• Strong problem-solving attitude and willingness to debug and troubleshoot issues
• Ability to quickly learn and adapt to new tools, technologies, and environments
• Good communication skills and ability to collaborate with technical and non-technical
stakeholders
