About the Role:

We are looking for a curious, hands-on DevOps / DevSecOps Intern to join our engineering team. This is a high-impact opportunity to work in a fast-paced, cloud-native environment using industry-standard tools such as Jenkins, AWS, Docker, and Bitbucket. You will help streamline CI/CD pipelines, strengthen our security posture alongside the cybersecurity team, and gain real-world experience building and maintaining scalable, automated infrastructure. You will collaborate with experienced engineers through Jira, Confluence, and Bitbucket, applying agile best practices end-to-end.


Responsibilities:

  • DevOps Responsibilities

  • Assist in developing, maintaining, and optimizing Jenkins CI/CD pipelines.
  • Support containerization and orchestration workflows using Docker.
  • Help manage cloud infrastructure on AWS (EC2, S3, IAM, CloudWatch, etc.).
  • Automate routine operational tasks using Bash, Python, or similar scripting languages.
  • Collaborate with developers in Bitbucket for version control, branching strategy, and code reviews.
  • Track tasks, sprints, and release progress in Jira.
  • Document workflows, runbooks, configurations, and best practices in Confluence.
  • Troubleshoot deployment issues and contribute to system monitoring and alerting.
  • Participate in daily stand-ups, retrospectives, and DevOps planning sessions.
  • DevSecOps Responsibilities

  • Integrate security scanning tools (SAST, DAST, SCA, secret scanning) into Jenkins pipelines.
  • Help triage vulnerability findings and track remediation through Jira with the cybersecurity team.
  • Assist in hardening Docker images and AWS configurations against CIS and OWASP benchmarks.
  • Support IAM least-privilege reviews, key rotation, and access auditing on AWS.
  • Contribute to security monitoring, log aggregation, and incident-response runbooks.
  • Help maintain compliance evidence and documentation in Confluence for audits.
  • Learn and apply DevSecOps principles such as policy-as-code, supply-chain security, and threat modeling.


Required Qualifications and Skills:

  • Currently pursuing a degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Cybersecurity, or a related field.
  • Familiarity with Linux / Unix systems and the command line.
  • Basic understanding of cloud platforms, especially AWS.
  • Exposure to Jenkins, Docker, and CI/CD concepts.
  • Experience or coursework involving the Atlassian suite (Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket).
  • Scripting knowledge in Bash, Python, or equivalent.
  • Awareness of foundational security concepts (OWASP Top 10, secrets management, least privilege).
  • Strong written and verbal communication, organization, and documentation skills.
  • Eagerness to learn, take ownership, and contribute in a collaborative environment.
  • Hands-on experience with Terraform, CloudFormation, or other Infrastructure-as-Code tools.
  • Exposure to Kubernetes or container orchestration platforms.
  • Familiarity with security tooling such as Snyk, Trivy, SonarQube, or AWS Security Hub.
  • Prior internship, lab, or personal project involving CI/CD or cloud automation.

What You Will Gain

  • Practical experience with modern DevOps and DevSecOps tools, workflows, and pipelines.
  • Direct collaboration with cybersecurity engineers on real-world security initiatives.
  • Insight into agile development practices and cloud-native infrastructure at scale.
  • Mentorship from experienced DevOps, platform, and security engineers.
  • Opportunity to ship meaningful contributions that improve deployment speed, reliability, and security.
