About the Team & Role
In this role, you will help support the build-out and expansion of our global network. As an intern, you will be paired with a dedicated mentor from the Network Deployment team who will guide you through the end-to-end lifecycle of infrastructure planning and execution.
This is a highly practical, hands-on opportunity designed to bridge the gap between academic theory and real-world application. You will take ownership of small-scale network deployment projects, write scripts to automate our workflows, and physically deploy hardware in local data centers. If you are eager to learn, willing to get your hands dirty, and want to help build a faster, safer Internet for millions of users, this is the place for you.
About the Internship Program
As a Network Deployment Engineering intern on the Infrastructure Team, you will...
  • Mentored Project Execution: Take ownership of small-scale network deployment projects from planning to turn-up, under the close guidance of a senior engineering mentor.
  • Hands-On Field Deployment: Get away from the keyboard! Visit local data centers to perform physical deployment activities, including racking and stacking hardware, running cables, and troubleshooting physical layer issues.
  • Scripting & Automation: Work on simple scripting or automation projects (using Python, Bash, or automation frameworks) to eliminate manual tasks, build internal tools or workflows and improve our team's deployment speed.
  • Remote Administration: Assist with server administration tasks remotely using IPMI/BMC tools, including server provisioning, monitoring, and firmware updates.
  • Network Configuration: Support the team in preparing and pushing network configurations for greenfield deployments and brownfield migrations.
  • Vendor Coordination: Help coordinate with remote contractors, datacenter providers, and logistics partners during hardware installations across our 700+ global locations.

Documentation: Assist in creating and updating vital documentation, including Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and Methods of Procedure (MOPs).

Examples of desirable skills, knowledge and experience
  • Currently enrolled in (or recently graduated from) a Bachelor's or Master's degree program in Computer Science, Telecommunications, Network Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field.
  • Foundational Knowledge: Solid academic understanding of the OSI model, basic network protocols (TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP), and network topologies.
  • Coding/Scripting Basics: Introductory experience with at least one scripting language (like Python or Bash) and a strong desire to learn how to apply it to infrastructure automation.
  • Hands-On Mentality: Comfort with physical labor in a data center environment (lifting hardware, running cables, working in noisy/cooled environments).
  • Linux Basics: Familiarity with basic Linux/Unix command-line navigation and troubleshooting.
  • Ability to commit to a minimum 12 week summer internship.
  • In office 3-5 days a week in Singapore.
