- Debug, troubleshoot, and improve distributed systems.
- Collaborate with customers to understand problems and deliver practical solutions.
- Take end-to-end ownership of assigned tasks, from design to implementation and documentation.
- Continuously learn and adapt to new technologies and engineering practices.
What we are looking for
- Strong interest in devops and Cloud Native technologies.
- Good programming skills in Go (or a willingness to become highly proficient in Go).
- Solid understanding of computer science fundamentals, Linux, networking, and distributed systems concepts.
- Self-disciplined, proactive, and capable of taking ownership without constant supervision.
- Strong problem-solving and debugging skills.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
- Empathy and professionalism when working with customers and teammates.
- Curiosity, initiative, and a strong desire to learn by building.
Bonus points
Your chances of selection will significantly improve if you have:
- Previous contributions to Open Source projects (GitHub profile, pull requests, issues, or maintainership).
- Active participation in CNCF or other open source communities.
- Experience with Kubernetes, Prometheus, CloudNativePG, or related cloud native technologies.
- Personal projects demonstrating systems programming, distributed systems, or infrastructure engineering.
- Participation in programs such as GSoC, LFX Mentorship, or similar initiatives.
Internship to Full-Time
This internship is intended to identify future full-time engineers. High-performing interns will be offered the opportunity to join the team as full-time Software Engineers based on their performance, ownership, technical skills, and cultural fit.
We value demonstrated ability over credentials. A strong GitHub profile, meaningful open source contributions, technical depth, ownership, and the ability to communicate effectively will stand out far more than a resume alone.
