DevOps Intern | 3,500 Per Month INR
Summary
Remote DevOps internship with a small 10-developer Indian team: you'd own CI/CD (GitHub Actions), AWS infrastructure (EC2, ECS, S3, RDS, CloudWatch), and deployment automation for 5 production apps, occasionally debugging small React Native/Node.js code. Title lists a ₹3,500/month stipend, though the posting also calls it a 3-month unpaid internship.
Compensation: No equity
Work From Home | Internship Certificate | Mentorship (During & After Internship) | Join a Team of 10 Developers | Flexible Hours | IST Timezone
What makes this role unique: You will own and improve CI/CD pipelines, cloud infrastructure (AWS), and deployment automation for our 5 production apps (web, iOS, Android). You’ll also debug and modify small pieces of Expo React Native or Node.js code when needed to unblock deployments or fix environment‑related issues.
Core tech you’ll work with:
AWS (EC2, ECS, S3, CloudFront, RDS, IAM, VPC – you’ll learn on the job)
CI/CD (GitHub Actions / GitLab CI / Jenkins – we use GitHub Actions)
Infrastructure as Code (basic CloudFormation or CDK – good to have, not mandatory)
Containerization (Docker, possibly ECS)
Monitoring & logging (CloudWatch, basic dashboards)
You need to know one of these really well (mandatory): MERN or React Native or AWS. And you must be comfortable reading/writing small code changes (e.g., Dockerfile, GitHub Actions YAML, or a small Node.js script) when automation needs a fix.
About the Internship Are you passionate about cloud infrastructure, automation, and making deployments boring? Do you want to work on real AWS environments supporting 5 live apps – and occasionally tweak application code to make DevOps magic happen?
Join our dynamic team of 10 developers and gain hands‑on experience in:
AWS cloud services – provisioning, securing, and scaling resources
CI/CD pipeline design – automated testing, building, and deployment for Expo React Native + Node.js
Infrastructure as Code – using CloudFormation / CDK (you’ll learn)
Containerization – Docker, ECS
Monitoring & alerting – CloudWatch logs, metrics, basic dashboards
Debugging deployment failures – fixing environment variables, permissions, or even small app‑level bugs
You will work alongside experienced mentors, receive an Internship Certificate, and contribute to impactful projects. Our team consists of both paid and unpaid interns.
