DevOps Engineering Intern

About us:

Product, engineering and support teams work out of offices in Dublin, County Dublin and two nearshore delivery centres. We started in 2001 and have grown to about 780 people.

Overview:

We are moving older services to containers and the intern will help with the migration and the documentation. Remote within Ireland. The team meets in Dublin once a quarter, travel covered. Most of our work is async, and meetings are kept short. Good written English matters here, since most updates are written.

Day to day:

Rotate secrets in AWS Secrets Manager under supervision. Deploy and update apps on Kubernetes using Helm charts. Test backup and restore steps for databases and record the results. Document runbooks for common incidents in Confluence. Write and improve CI/CD pipelines in GitHub Actions or GitLab CI. Patch and update Linux servers in staging before production changes. Containerise services with Docker and keep images small. Manage AWS resources such as EC2, S3, RDS and IAM roles with Terraform.

What we're looking for:

Available for the full internship period. Based in Ireland for the duration of the internship. Currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's degree, graduating 2027 or 2028. Eligible to work in Ireland. Hands-on practice with Docker, even on personal projects. Understanding of networking concepts like DNS, load balancers, ports and subnets. Laptop with at least 8 GB RAM (16 GB preferred) and a reliable internet connection. Careful with production systems. You must follow change procedures exactly. Familiarity with Git and how CI pipelines work.
