DevOps Engineer Intern

Marketeq Talent is offering an internship opportunity as a DevOps Engineer Intern. The role focuses on managing technical delivery pipelines, supporting infrastructure, and ensuring smooth deployment workflows for the development organization.

Responsibilities:

• Help manage Git workflows across development, staging, production, feature branches, and hotfixes to keep code organized and release-ready at all times
• Support CI/CD setup and ongoing maintenance for both backend and frontend deployment pipelines, ensuring builds run reliably and efficiently
• Help ensure code is deployed consistently and correctly across all environments, including development, staging, and production
• Support release coordination by preparing environments, validating deployment readiness, and assisting with production rollout tasks and release checklists
• Monitor deployments and environment health to help identify failures, instability, downtime, or release issues quickly — before they impact the team
• Troubleshoot build failures, deployment errors, branch conflicts, environment misconfigurations, and release blockers with a methodical and detail-oriented approach
• Help improve release reliability by reducing manual deployment friction, identifying bottlenecks, and strengthening deployment processes over time
• Assist with rollback preparedness, release safeguards, and deployment validation steps to reduce risk during production releases
• Support infrastructure and hosting workflows for services deployed across platforms such as Render, Vercel, VPS environments, or similar systems
• Help maintain deployment documentation, branch rules, CI/CD SOPs, environment setup instructions, and release procedures so the team always has clear, usable references
• Collaborate with engineers to ensure services are deployment-ready and aligned with environment-specific requirements before release
• Support QA and release workflows by helping ensure staging environments are stable, configured correctly, and ready for final validation
• Help surface infrastructure or deployment bottlenecks that could slow down squads or delay releases, and work with the team to address them proactively
• Contribute to automation efforts that improve deployment consistency, release speed, and overall operational reliability across the platform
• Assist with production support tasks, incident response follow-up, and release-related troubleshooting as needed during or after deployments

Requirements:

• Master's Degree Required
• Hands-on experience with Git and common branching workflows (feature branches, hotfixes, trunk-based development, or similar) in a real software development environment
• Familiarity with CI/CD concepts and tools such as GitHub Actions, CircleCI, GitLab CI, or similar deployment pipeline platforms
• Familiarity with cloud deployment platforms, hosting environments, or modern web application deployment workflows — experience with Render, Vercel, AWS, GCP, or similar is a plus
• Ability to troubleshoot technical issues related to builds, deployments, environment variables, branch conflicts, and pipeline failures with strong problem-solving instincts
• Strong attention to detail and comfort working with release processes, configuration management, and deployment checklists where precision matters
• Comfortable collaborating across cross-functional teams including engineers, QA, Scrum Masters, Product Managers, and project leadership in a remote environment
• Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple deployment tasks, track release status, and communicate blockers clearly
• Genuine interest in DevOps, deployment systems, release engineering, infrastructure support, and software reliability as a career path or area of study
• Master's Degree in Computer Science, DevOps, Systems Engineering, Information Technology, Software Engineering, or a closely related field preferred
• Prior experience with Git, CI/CD pipelines, deployment workflows, or cloud hosting platforms is a plus
• Familiarity with logs, monitoring tools, uptime checks, error tracking, or operational debugging is a plus
• Familiarity with Node.js, frontend deployment workflows, backend services, Docker, containerization, or modern web infrastructure is a plus
• Master's student or graduate preferred in Computer Science, DevOps, Systems Engineering, Information Technology, Software Engineering, or a closely related field
