About the Opportunity

SkillzenLoop is hiring DevOps Engineer Interns for freshers and entry-level candidates who enjoy working with servers, automation and deployment pipelines. This internship is built around practical DevOps work: configuring Linux machines, packaging applications into containers and building the pipelines that move code safely from a developer's laptop to a live server.

This role suits candidates who want to build a career in DevOps, cloud engineering, site reliability or systems administration.

Role Overview

As a DevOps Engineer Intern, you will work on structured infrastructure assignments under the guidance of experienced team members. You will learn how modern teams release software quickly without breaking things, and how to find the cause when something stops running.

Key Responsibilities

• Set up, configure and maintain Linux servers for development and testing
• Package applications into containers using Docker and manage them with Docker Compose
• Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, Jenkins or GitLab CI
• Write shell scripts to automate deployments, backups and routine server tasks
• Monitor server health, logs and uptime, and report issues early
• Help manage cloud resources on platforms such as AWS, Azure or DigitalOcean
• Use Git and GitHub for version control and take part in code reviews
• Document setups so anyone on the team can repeat them

Who Can Apply

• Freshers, entry-level candidates, or students pursuing or completing B.Tech, B.E., BCA, B.Sc (CS/IT), MCA, diploma programs or related degrees
• Self-taught learners who can show their skills through a GitHub profile, home lab or deployed project
• Candidates interested in cloud, automation and infrastructure
• Candidates available to work full-time for the internship period

Required Skills

• Basic Linux command line skills (files, permissions, processes, networking)
• Understanding of Git and how code moves from development to deployment
• Basic idea of how web servers, ports and DNS work
• A troubleshooting mindset and patience when debugging
• Clear written English for documentation
• A laptop and a stable internet connection for remote work

Preferred Skills (Not Mandatory)

• Familiarity with Docker
• Exposure to a cloud platform, Nginx or Kubernetes
• A GitHub profile, home lab or a project you deployed yourself

What You Will Learn

• Linux server administration basics
• Containerisation with Docker
• CI/CD pipeline design and maintenance
• Shell scripting for automation
• Monitoring, logging and incident basics

Why Join SkillzenLoop

• Beginner-friendly, project-based internship
• Work from your own city anywhere in India
• Regular feedback and guidance from experienced team members
• Deployment projects and automation scripts you can show in future interviews
• Certificate of completion on successful completion of the internship

Ideal Candidate Profile

We are looking for curious, patient candidates who like automating work they would otherwise repeat by hand. If you enjoy figuring out why a system stopped running and fixing it, this internship is a strong starting point.
