We are looking for a DevOps Engineer Intern (Infrastructure + QA) who has very high ownership, strong fundamentals, and the maturity to handle real-world infra + release reliability. This is not a shadow-only internshipthis role directly impacts how stable our systems are. What You Will Do (Key Responsibilities) Infrastructure & Deployment Help manage and operate production Kubernetes clusters and related platform components. Work with Terraform to provision and maintain infrastructure (cloud + networking + compute). Support deployments on cloud providers (AWS/GCP/others) and assist with resource planning and cost-efficiency. Assist in bare-metal / on-prem deployments for client environments (network constraints, custom setups, security requirements). Support GPU infrastructure for VoiceAI workloads (provisioning, scheduling basics, scaling, reliability monitoring). Own small but critical infrastructure tasks end-to-end: implement test document deploy. Monitoring, Reliability & Operations Work on monitoring and alerting setups using tools like Grafana, PagerDuty (or equivalents). Help define and validate reliability checks: uptime, error budgets basics, incident hygiene, deployment safety checks. Investigate incidents, write concise summaries, and propose improvements to avoid repeat failures. Ensure infrastructure changes are reviewed, traceable, and reproducible (IaC discipline). QA for Infra + Product Workflows Read PRDs / user stories and convert them into test scenarios and validation checklists. Perform manual testing of web flows across basic browsers (Chrome/Firefox/Safari). Test REST APIs using Postman / Insomnia / curl and validate responses, errors, and edge cases.

Excellent attention to detail (infra breaks because of small misses). Comfortable with modern dev tooling: Git, and strong working experience with tools like Cursor. Nice-to-Have (Plus Points) Experience with GPU workloads or ML/AI infra (even basic exposure). Experience setting up CI/CD pipelines or deployment automation. Familiarity with security best practices for infra (secrets, IAM, least privilege, auditability). Strong documentation habits (runbooks, checklists, deployment notes).
