AWS Intern

Clients have the owner's cell number, and the owner still takes the occasional Saturday call. Our bench is in the back of a strip-mall storefront, where we image laptops and swap failed drives.

The internship

Our Infrastructure team looks after AWS accounts, Kubernetes clusters and the build pipelines for 20 or so services. The intern will help with all of it under supervision. Our headquarters is in Louisville, and about a third of the team works remotely from other countries. Remote internship with a team based in Louisville. The stipend is paid at the end of each month. Core hours are 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM US Eastern. Reliable internet and a power backup are a must.
