About the Role.
This internship is designed to provide practical, hands-on experience in platform engineering while delivering meaningful improvements to internal developer tooling, deployment processes, and automation practices.
The intern will work on a project within the IT Infrastructure and Integration area, with a focus on improving engineering efficiency, standardization, and operational maturity. The work will expose the intern to modern cloud and DevOps practices in an AWS-based environment and provide experience contributing to real business-critical systems.
What You’ll Do.
Integration Middleware Deployment Promotion Standardization: The intern will help standardize the process for promoting integration middleware code across environments (development, QA, and production) by introducing automated API validation. This includes running Postman collections as part of the DevOps pipeline to ensure consistency and reliability during deployments.
Automated Repository Documentation: The intern may work on improving documentation consistency across repositories by defining documentation standards, creating reusable templates, and building GitHub Actions to automatically generate or maintain repository documentation as part of CI pipelines.
Technical Debt Reduction and Platform Templates: The intern may contribute to reducing technical debt by maintaining the API inventory in LeanIX, developing new templates for building AWS infrastructure using AWS CDK, creating reusable templates for AWS Step Functions and event-driven integrations (API Gateway → EventBridge → Lambda).
What You'll Need.
Basic proficiency in at least one programming language such as Python, Java, or Node.js.
Familiarity with agentic workflows, AI/LLM tools, or related automation concepts is preferred.
Exposure to AWS cloud services and cloud-native development practices is a plus, but not required.
