Position Title: DevOps / DevSecOps Intern Department: EQS Compensation: Unpaid Internship Location: Canada or United States

About the Role: We are looking for a curious, hands-on DevOps / DevSecOps Intern to join our engineering team. This is a high-impact opportunity to work in a fast-paced, cloud-native environment using industry-standard tools such as Jenkins, AWS, Docker, and Bitbucket. You will help streamline CI/CD pipelines, strengthen our security posture alongside the cybersecurity team, and gain real-world experience building and maintaining scalable, automated infrastructure. You will collaborate with experienced engineers through Jira, Confluence, and Bitbucket, applying agile best practices end-to-end.

Responsibilities:

• DevOps Responsibilities

• Assist in developing, maintaining, and optimizing Jenkins CI/CD pipelines. • Support containerization and orchestration workflows using Docker. • Help manage cloud infrastructure on AWS (EC2, S3, IAM, CloudWatch, etc.). • Automate routine operational tasks using Bash, Python, or similar scripting languages. • Collaborate with developers in Bitbucket for version control, branching strategy, and code reviews. • Track tasks, sprints, and release progress in Jira. • Document workflows, runbooks, configurations, and best practices in Confluence. • Troubleshoot deployment issues and contribute to system monitoring and alerting. • Participate in daily stand-ups, retrospectives, and DevOps planning sessions. • DevSecOps Responsibilities

• Integrate security scanning tools (SAST, DAST, SCA, secret scanning) into Jenkins pipelines. • Help triage vulnerability findings and track remediation through Jira with the cybersecurity team. • Assist in hardening Docker images and AWS configurations against CIS and OWASP benchmarks. • Support IAM least-privilege reviews, key rotation, and access auditing on AWS. • Contribute to security monitoring, log aggregation, and incident-response runbooks. • Help maintain compliance evidence and documentation in Confluence for audits. • Learn and apply DevSecOps principles such as policy-as-code, supply-chain security, and threat modeling.

Required Qualifications and Skills:

• Currently pursuing a degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Cybersecurity, or a related field. • Familiarity with Linux / Unix systems and the command line. • Basic understanding of cloud platforms, especially AWS. • Exposure to Jenkins, Docker, and CI/CD concepts. • Experience or coursework involving the Atlassian suite (Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket). • Scripting knowledge in Bash, Python, or equivalent. • Awareness of foundational security concepts (OWASP Top 10, secrets management, least privilege). • Strong written and verbal communication, organization, and documentation skills. • Eagerness to learn, take ownership, and contribute in a collaborative environment. • Hands-on experience with Terraform, CloudFormation, or other Infrastructure-as-Code tools. • Exposure to Kubernetes or container orchestration platforms. • Familiarity with security tooling such as Snyk, Trivy, SonarQube, or AWS Security Hub. • Prior internship, lab, or personal project involving CI/CD or cloud automation.

What You Will Gain

• Practical experience with modern DevOps and DevSecOps tools, workflows, and pipelines. • Direct collaboration with cybersecurity engineers on real-world security initiatives. • Insight into agile development practices and cloud-native infrastructure at scale. • Mentorship from experienced DevOps, platform, and security engineers. • Opportunity to ship meaningful contributions that improve deployment speed, reliability, and security.
