DevOps Engineering Intern

About Northwest Insurance:

Catastrophe teams deploy adjusters within days of a major storm.

Overview:

Remote internship for a student who enjoys Linux, scripting and figuring out why a build broke. The internship is fully remote. Interns join our New York City team on daily calls and get a named mentor. Expect to work a schedule that overlaps with US Eastern business hours until about noon ET. We use Slack, Notion and Google Meet. Cameras on for team calls.

Day to day:

• Containerise services with Docker and keep images small
• Write and improve CI/CD pipelines in GitHub Actions or GitLab CI
