The work

If it only runs on your laptop, it is not shipped

Running a container is the easy part. Testing every push, publishing an image you can roll back to, running it on Kubernetes and knowing it broke before users do. That is the internship.

  • 1You get a realistic fictional client, such as a courier company or a clinic, and a small API to run
  • 2You automate each step in a public GitHub repository, from Bash scripts to pipelines
  • 3Your mentor reviews every task and asks for the command output that proves it works
  • 4You hand over the repository with a README, runbooks and the last pipeline run

Linux, Bash and Git are covered in weeks 1 to 2. You need basic programming in any one language, a laptop with about 8 GB of RAM, and no cloud account at all.

Skills

What you will be able to do after this DevOps internship

01

Linux and Bash

Files, permissions, users, processes and logs, plus Bash scripts with loops, grep and awk.

02

Git like a team

Branches, pull requests, clean commit messages, merge conflicts and tags.

03

Docker

Dockerfiles, multi-stage builds, non-root users and Docker Compose with a database and Nginx.

04

CI pipelines

GitHub Actions that test and build on every push, with caching and clear failures.

05

Continuous delivery

Versioned images published to GitHub Container Registry, and tags you can roll back to.

06

Kubernetes

Deployments, Services, ConfigMaps, Secrets, probes and rolling updates with rollback on kind or minikube.

07

Infrastructure as code

Terraform providers, variables, state, plan and apply against LocalStack, with no cloud account.

08

Monitoring and pipeline security

Prometheus, Grafana, alert rules, runbooks and postmortems, plus Trivy, Hadolint and Gitleaks.

Curriculum

The DevOps internship plan, 3-month version

Four phases. Each one ends in a deliverable that is reviewed and graded before the next opens.

Linux, Bash and Git

The ground every pipeline stands on.

  • Ubuntu on WSL2 or VirtualBox: files, permissions, users and processes
  • Bash scripts with variables, loops, grep and awk
  • Git branches, pull requests, clean commits and tags
  • Nginx, ports, DNS and HTTPS, and how a request reaches an app
Deliverable

A Bash script that summarises a web server log, in a repository with a clean pull request history.

The capstone

Every intern hands over a delivery pipeline another engineer could run

You take a fictional client’s API from a pull request to a local Kubernetes cluster, with security checks in CI, images on GitHub Container Registry, Terraform on LocalStack, Prometheus and Grafana, and a README that lets another engineer take it over tomorrow.

  • A pipeline that tests, scans and publishes every change
  • Kubernetes manifests, Terraform code and monitoring in one repository
  • A README with a diagram, runbooks and the last run pasted

The Ezitech model

What the DevOps internship includes

Three things that make this different from a course you watch on a screen.

Client-style projects

You work on projects written for realistic client companies, with deadlines and revision rounds, not recycled practice exercises.

A mentor, not a playlist

Every piece of work is reviewed against written criteria, you can ask your mentor at any time, and other interns are around you to build with.

Portfolio and verified certificate

You finish with work you are allowed to show and a QR-verified certificate that states your track and dates.

And you leave with

  • Verified certificate

    Issued by Ezitech Institute and verifiable by employers.

  • Verified certificate

    A QR code lets anyone confirm your track and dates online.

  • A pipeline to Kubernetes

    An end-to-end delivery setup with monitoring and runbooks, plus smaller labs on GitHub.

  • Interview preparation

    CV rewrite, portfolio case study and a technical mock interview.

  • A portfolio you can show

    Every accepted task appears on your public Ezitech profile, under the project it belongs to.

  • Confidence in review

    Month after month of explaining and defending your own work in reviews.

Built for you if

  • You are a student or fresh graduate in CS, IT or software engineering
  • You enjoy automating things you would otherwise do by hand
  • You want to become a DevOps, build and release or cloud engineer
  • You need an internship or a final-year project with real pipelines on GitHub

Not a fit if

  • You want a certificate without doing the work
  • You cannot work on it most days for the months you choose
  • You want to avoid the Linux terminal and command line work
  • You want to skip review and work alone

Contact Ezitech

What does a DevOps intern do at Ezitech?
A DevOps intern at Ezitech containerises a small API, builds CI/CD pipelines in GitHub Actions, runs the app on a local Kubernetes cluster and adds infrastructure as code, monitoring and security checks, with a mentor reviewing every task. The clients are realistic fictional companies, and every task is a public GitHub repository.

How is this different from the cloud computing internship?
This DevOps internship goes further into delivery and operations: CI/CD pipelines, Kubernetes, infrastructure as code, monitoring and pipeline security. The cloud computing internship covers Linux, Docker, cloud services, GitHub Actions basics and Terraform, and does not include Kubernetes in its 3-month plan.

Do I need a credit card or a paid cloud account for DevOps?
No, you never need a credit card, a paid cloud account or a free tier with billing. Everything runs on your own laptop: Docker, Kubernetes with kind or minikube, Terraform against LocalStack, and Prometheus and Grafana in Docker Compose, with images on GitHub Container Registry, which is free for public images.

What laptop do I need for the DevOps internship?
You need a laptop with about 8 GB of RAM to run Kubernetes with monitoring comfortably. With less, you run one piece at a time on a one-node kind or k3d cluster, and on Windows you use Ubuntu on WSL2.

Do I need Linux or DevOps experience?
No, you do not need Linux or DevOps experience: weeks 1 and 2 cover the Linux command line, Bash and Git from the start. You should know basic programming in one language, because you write a small API of about 30 lines in Python or Node.js and then operate it.

Can I do the DevOps internship remotely?
Yes, you can do the DevOps internship fully remotely from anywhere in Pakistan, or onsite at the Ezitech office in Rawalpindi. You choose 1 to 6 months, hybrid (onsite in Rawalpindi or remote), and your mentor reviews the same repositories and pipelines in both modes.

Is there a fee, and is the internship paid?
There is a one-time programme fee and there is no stipend. You start with a 7-day trial before paying anything, and the full fee and refund rules are on the internship fee and refund policy page.

Does the DevOps internship guarantee a job?
No, there is no job guarantee with the DevOps internship or any other Ezitech internship. You finish with public GitHub repositories, an end-to-end pipeline project, a mock interview and help with your CV and LinkedIn for roles such as junior DevOps engineer, junior cloud engineer and build and release engineer (entry level).

Who runs this internship?
Ezitech Software House runs it: a software house in Rawalpindi, Pakistan, founded in 2015 and registered with the Pakistan Software Export Board (PSEB). Ezitech Software House and Ezitech Institute are the same company. “Ezitech Institute” is the name used for its internships and training. The office is at Office #304-B, Amna Plaza, Main Peshawar Road, Rawalpindi, Punjab 46000, Pakistan.

How do I apply for the DevOps internship?
Press Apply now on this page, register on the Ezitech intern portal with your basic details and choose DevOps as your field. No CV or work experience is needed, you start with a 7-day trial with no payment, and you can start any day.
