# Network Administrator Internship at CryptoMize

Apply now for the Network Administrator Internship in Delhi at CryptoMize — a 6-month certified program on rolling intake, inside the infrastructure layer that keeps a 99.9999% uptime promise across the platforms our clients depend on. Network Administrator interns here do not rack servers in isolation: you will work on the networks that carry encrypted client communications, learn segmentation the way an intelligence organization practices it, and understand why a router ACL is a security decision before it is a performance one. The infrastructure team maintains the 99.9999% uptime promise behind our platforms — and from month one, you are inside the rotation that keeps it. This is the full internship description — required skills, responsibilities, eligibility, and the selection process.

## Facts

- Location: New Delhi (HQ), CDR Building, Chhatarpur
- Type: 6-month internship, certification provided
- Availability: immediate, rolling intake (always hiring)
- Compensation: discussed at screening

## What you will actually do

- Work alongside the infrastructure team on the networks carrying CryptoMize’s encrypted communication suite and platform backbone
- Learn segmentation discipline as practiced here — VLAN architecture and firewall policy where every rule exists because someone documented why
- Shadow the monitoring regime that backs our uptime record: what we watch, what thresholds mean, and what paging at 3 AM is actually for
- Assist in switch, router, and firewall configuration under supervision — Cisco IOS and pfSense, named and hands-on, not theoretical
- Run cabling, labeling, and documentation passes — the physical-layer hygiene every real network runs on
- Practice backup, restore, and recovery drills on non-production segments until the procedure is reflex
- Sit inside the security category of an intelligence organization — where the network is not IT overhead but part of the confidentiality promise to clients
- Learn the change-management ritual properly — every modification proposed, peer-reviewed, windowed, and documented before a single command touches production

## Skills

- TCP/IP fundamentals — subnetting, routing, and DNS resolution genuinely understood
- Linux command-line comfort for server-side network work
- Switching and routing basics — VLANs, trunking, static routes
- Firewall logic — what a rule does, what it exposes, and how policy is written
- Network monitoring mindset — latency, packet loss, and what "normal" looks like
- Documentation discipline — topology diagrams and change records kept true
- Cabling and physical-layer care
- Backup and recovery procedure discipline
- Security-first instinct — least privilege as a habit, not a policy document
- Calm methodical troubleshooting under observation
- Confidentiality reflex at NDA grade
- Willingness to learn encryption fundamentals as they touch the network layer

## Tools

- Cisco IOS (switching and routing)
- pfSense firewall administration
- Wireshark for packet-level diagnosis
- Zabbix-class network monitoring

## Questions and answers

### What does a Network Administrator intern do at CryptoMize?

A Network Administrator intern works on the infrastructure behind CryptoMize’s encrypted communication suite — supervised switch, router, and firewall configuration, monitoring duties, backup drills, and the segmentation discipline an intelligence organization requires.

### What is the eligibility for the Network Administrator Internship?

Final-year students and recent graduates in computer science, electronics, or equivalent self-taught evidence. Command-line comfort and TCP/IP fundamentals are the entry bar — no diploma is mandatory. A homelab, a school network you maintained, or a certification in progress all count as evidence.

### Which skills are required for a Network Administrator internship?

TCP/IP fundamentals, Linux command-line comfort, switching and routing basics, and a security-first instinct. Cisco IOS, pfSense, Wireshark, and monitoring practice are learned hands-on here.

### Is the Network Administrator Internship paid?

Compensation is discussed during screening and depends on demonstrated skill, engagement classification, urgency, and track record. We do not publish figures — every intern is evaluated individually.

### How long is the internship, and is a certificate provided?

Six months at our New Delhi HQ with a certificate on completion — plus hands-on reps on production-adjacent infrastructure behind a 99.9999% uptime record.

### What is the selection process for the Network Administrator Internship?

A short application, a fundamentals screening (subnetting, routing logic, Linux basics), and a final interview with the infrastructure lead. The cycle typically completes within two weeks.

### Do I need certifications for the Network Administrator Internship?

No certification is required to enter — TCP/IP fundamentals and Linux comfort are the entry bar. The hands-on Cisco IOS and pfSense reps you get here are worth more to your record than an entry-level certificate, and we support later certification if you pursue it.
