AI Summary

Design and maintain CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure-as-code to improve software delivery and developer velocity. Implement safe rollout strategies and integrate security and observability checks into the build process.

About the Role

  • We’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 Do
  • Design, 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 For
  • Familiarity 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 Mindset
  • You think in terms of user-perceived reliability, not just dashboards

  • You ask “what does good reliability look like?” before adding metrics

  • You take ownership of uptime and graceful degradation

  • You balance speed of change with system stability

  • You proactively identify reliability gaps before they cause incidents


Bonus
  • Experience with observability tools like Prometheus, Grafana, or OpenTelemetry

  • Exposure to incident management or on-call workflows

  • Experience with resilience testing or chaos engineering

  • Familiarity with tracing and structured logging


What Success Looks Like

Within 4–6 weeks, you should be able to:

  • Own monitoring and alerting for a subset of services

  • Reduce noisy alerts and improve signal quality

  • Contribute to incident retrospectives with actionable insights

  • Improve reliability, visibility, or response time in a measurable way


What You’ll Get
  • Hands-on experience building reliability practices from the ground up

  • Direct collaboration with founders and core engineering teams

  • Real ownership beyond a typical SRE internship

  • A portfolio of dashboards, runbooks, and system improvements

  • A strong pathway into SRE, platform, or production engineering roles


Who This Is Not For
  • If you want predictable systems with no incidents to handle

  • If you avoid ambiguity or cross-team problem solving

  • If you prefer rigid, siloed environments with predefined processes


Who Will Thrive Here
  • Builders who want to actively own system reliability

  • Engineers who think in terms of end-to-end systems

  • Calm debuggers of intermittent and complex failures

  • High-agency individuals who care about keeping systems running reliably
